The tire specifications for the BMW X5 2022 xDrive 40Li Premium M Sport Package are 275/40 R21 and 315/35 R21; for the BMW X5 2022 xDrive 30Li Premium M Sport Package, they are 275/45 R20 and 305/40 R20. The numbers 275, 305, and 315 represent the tire's section width in millimeters (275mm, 305mm, and 315mm, respectively). The numbers 45, 40, and 35 indicate the aspect ratio of the tire's section height to its width (45%, 40%, and 35%, respectively). The 'R' stands for radial construction, and the numbers 20 and 21 denote the rim diameter in inches. The front tires of the car are slightly larger in diameter, but the tire pressure differs between the front and rear tires. The front tire pressure is 3.2 bar when unloaded and 3.9 bar when fully loaded, while the rear tire pressure is 3.5 bar when unloaded and 4.6 bar when fully loaded. Higher tire pressure increases the tire diameter, but during normal use of the BMW X5, the diameters of the front and rear tires are almost identical. The BMW X5 does not experience abnormal tire wear, speed inaccuracies, or tire pressure warning light issues due to the slight difference in tire sizes. Tires are the only components of a car that come into direct contact with the ground, and they play a crucial role in the vehicle's driving stability and safety. The BMW X5 features an on-demand all-wheel-drive system, but it primarily operates as a rear-wheel-drive vehicle. This design gives the rear tires a wider width, providing enhanced grip. The front wheels are only engaged to distribute power when the rear wheels slip or under specific road conditions. In addition to the model specifications, tires also display the following common data: Tire cord material: Indicated by Chinese pinyin, such as M for cotton cord, R for rayon cord, N for nylon cord, G for steel cord, and ZG for steel radial cord. Speed rating: Indicates the maximum speed at which the tire can carry a specified load under defined conditions. Letters from A to Z represent certified speed ratings ranging from 4.8 km/h to 300 km/h. Common speed ratings include: Q: 160 km/h; H: 210 km/h; V: 240 km/h; W: 270 km/h; Y: 300 km/h. Rim specification: Shows the rim size compatible with the tire for practical use, such as 'Standard Rim 5.00F'.

What is the difference between C1 and C2 in the driving test?

C1 driver's license is one of the codes for motor vehicle driver's licenses; the permitted driving scope of a C1 license includes small and mini passenger vehicles, as well as light and mini cargo vehicles; light, small, and mini special operation vehicles; small passenger vehicles with a seating capacity of 9 or fewer people. C2 driver's license is for small automatic transmission vehicles. Compared to the C1 license, the C2 has the additional condition of being automatic, so a C2 license only permits driving small vehicles equipped with automatic transmissions (AT, CVT, DCT, AMT) and does not allow driving small vehicles with manual transmissions (MT). The difference between C1 and C2 lies in the type of vehicle used for training and testing. C1 is for small manual transmission vehicles, while C2 is for small automatic transmission vehicles. A C1 license allows driving both small manual and automatic transmission vehicles, whereas a C2 license only permits driving small automatic transmission vehicles.

Can the Trunk Be Opened When the Car is Locked?

It is a control system issue if the trunk can still be opened when the car is locked. Reasons why the trunk can still be opened when the car is locked: The trunk lock hook or the trunk control system may be malfunctioning, the trunk switch button on the key may have been accidentally pressed, or the key may have a proximity sensor function, allowing the trunk to be opened within one meter of the car even when it is locked. Solutions for when the car is locked but the trunk can still be opened: Repair or replace the trunk locking motor, adjust the alignment between the closing limit rubber block and the locking mechanism, inspect and repair the trunk control wiring, place the key farther away from the vehicle, and check if the trunk can still be opened. Locking Jammer: This is a signal blocker that emits electromagnetic waves to interfere with the car remote's signals, causing the car to appear locked when it is not.

Is it better for shorter people to drive a sedan or an SUV?

If you are not very tall, it is not recommended to buy an SUV, as SUVs inherently have larger blind spots, which would be even more pronounced in this case. A hatchback sedan would be more suitable. Below are some additional details: 1. Considerations: When driving, forward visibility is crucial. Regardless of the vehicle type, it's important to be aware of the blind spots, specifically the areas blocked by the two pillars on either side of the windshield. The extent of obstruction at different angles and how much of the front or even the side view is covered are critical for driving safety. 2. Comparison: Compared to sedans, most SUVs have higher seating positions, which theoretically offer a more open view. However, one must not overlook the visibility through the front windshield or the impact of the two A-pillars beside it. Therefore, the choice between an SUV and a sedan should be based on visibility and vehicle size, ultimately depending on personal preference.

Why is there water leaking under the Corolla?

If it's summer, water leaking from the Corolla is normal behavior—it's condensation water from the air conditioning system. Here are the reasons for the air conditioning system drainage: 1. Lowering the interior temperature: Due to high interior temperatures, the driver needs to activate the cooling system to reduce the cabin temperature. At this time, moisture in the hot air inside the car condenses on the surface of the extremely cold evaporator's heat-absorbing fins. The condensed water droplets are collected by the evaporator's plastic housing and drained out of the vehicle through pipes. 2. Lack of insulation foam wrapping: The low-pressure pipes of the car's air conditioning system are not wrapped with insulation foam, making the pipe surfaces prone to condensing moisture from the air. Water droplets will also condense and accumulate at the lowest point of the pipes before dripping off.

Does a non-functioning fog light affect the annual inspection?

A non-functioning fog light will fail the annual inspection: 1. The annual inspection checks the performance of the vehicle's lights, so a non-functioning fog light will affect the inspection. The annual vehicle inspection is a mandatory test for all vehicles that have obtained official license plates and registration certificates, equivalent to an annual physical examination for the vehicle according to the "Technical Conditions for Motor Vehicle Operation Safety." 2. Below is relevant information about the annual inspection content: (1) Check whether the engine, chassis, body, and their accessories are clean, complete, and functional, whether the paint is uniform and aesthetically pleasing, whether major assemblies have been replaced, and whether they match the initial inspection records. (2) Test whether the vehicle's braking performance, steering control, lights, exhaust, and other safety features comply with the requirements of the "Technical Conditions for Motor Vehicle Safety Operation." (3) Check whether the vehicle has been modified, altered, or transformed, and verify the registration certificate and license plate.
