First, open the car door. Enter the driver's cabin, step on the brake pedal, and press the one-touch start button of the car; otherwise, the fog lights cannot be turned on. After the vehicle is started, locate the lighting control lever. The fog light switch button is on the lighting control lever. Find the position of the fog light symbol on the vehicle's lighting control lever and rotate the control ring. Align the front fog light symbol with the activation point to turn on the front fog lights. Rotate the control ring to align the rear fog light symbol with the activation point to turn on the rear fog lights.

As a frequent BMW driver, I find the LIM speed limiter incredibly practical and convenient. Before driving, I usually start the vehicle and wait for the engine to stabilize, then press the LIM button near the steering wheel to activate the function, which lights up an indicator to show its status. Next, I use the control roller on the steering wheel to set the desired maximum speed, such as 130 km/h on highways or 50 km/h in urban areas, and the system automatically remembers it to prevent speeding. The benefits are numerous: it helps avoid speeding tickets, makes driving more relaxed without constantly checking the speedometer, and allows temporary acceleration by lightly pressing the brake or pressing the LIM button again to deactivate the limit, with very responsive feedback. I often use it when traveling with family to ensure a safe and smooth ride. One thing to note is that the settings reset when the ignition is turned off, so you’ll need to set it again next time; some models may have a memory function integrated with the iDrive system, so I regularly update the software to maintain accuracy. Overall, LIM makes BMWs smarter, enhancing both the driving experience and efficiency.

From a safety-first perspective, I always rely on BMW's LIM (Limit) function to protect myself from speeding traps. After starting the car, pressing the LIM button activates the system, allowing quick adjustment of the speed limit to match current road requirements—for instance, 40 km/h in school zones. The system automatically controls the throttle to prevent exceeding the set limit. Its most valuable feature is accident prevention: even when fatigued or distracted, fully depressing the accelerator won't increase speed, ensuring controlled driving. In emergencies, simply tapping the brake instantly cancels the limit, restoring full speed freedom. BMW's thoughtful design includes dashboard icon reminders to minimize risks. During rain, snow, or nighttime driving, setting a conservative speed limit enhances overall safety. I also combine it with navigation speed limit alerts for more stable and reliable journeys. After years of use, it has become my essential accident-prevention tool, especially ideal for urban commuting.

As a car enthusiast with some knowledge, the BMW LIM function is straightforward and easy to use. After starting the car, press the LIM button to activate it, then use the steering wheel paddle to select a suitable speed, such as 90 km/h. The core principle is that it limits engine output, cutting off fuel supply once the set speed is reached. To deactivate it, simply tap the brake or press the button firmly. I've found that regular checks and maintenance of the system's responsiveness are crucial to avoid lag issues. In daily driving, it helps save fuel and control speed without compromising the normal acceleration feel—BMW's intelligent handling is spot-on.

Why Do Tire Sidewalls Bulge?

Tire sidewalls bulge because one or more steel wires inside the tire have broken, causing the rubber to be unable to withstand the internal pressure of the tire, leading to bulging. It is necessary to replace the tire promptly to prevent continued use from resulting in a tire blowout. Tires are circular elastic rubber products assembled on various vehicles or machinery to roll on the ground, mounted on metal rims to support the vehicle body. The maintenance methods for tires are: 1. Avoid curbs and potholes to prevent the sidewall cords from breaking and causing tire bulging; 2. Regularly remove debris from the tread to avoid blowouts; 3. Check the tire wear and replace them in time; 4. Regularly check the tire pressure, which should not be too high or too low.
