The reasons for BMW brake failure are as follows: 1. Abnormal wear of brake discs and pads: For example, when brake discs and pads are worn to their limits, they should be inspected during every maintenance service. 2. Deterioration of brake fluid: Brake fluid has strong water absorption properties. If not replaced for a long time, it can easily produce air bubbles, affecting braking performance. Brake fluid should be replaced regularly. 3. Brake system oil leakage: If brake fluid leaks severely, braking will be impossible. It is crucial to pay attention to brake system warnings. After the brake system warning light comes on, promptly stop to check the brake fluid level and inspect components such as brake lines and the master/slave cylinders. 4. Air in the brake system: The presence of air in the brake system will significantly increase braking distance. This is a relatively common issue and requires bleeding the brake system at a service station. 5. Damage to components such as the brake master cylinder or slave cylinders: Replace the relevant parts. 6. Obstruction under the brake pedal: For example, a plastic bottle or an ill-fitting floor mat may block the pedal. Adjust promptly.

What is the pure electric range of Tesla in kilometers?

Different models have different ranges. Below is the relevant introduction to Tesla's pure electric range: 1. The basic configuration of Tesla is a 90kWh battery with a range of 240 miles. The maximum range of Tesla can reach 275 miles (442 kilometers). The Model S60 can reach a top speed of 130 miles, accelerate from 0-60 miles in 5.5 seconds, and travel 210 miles on a single charge. 2. The Tesla Model is equipped with an all-wheel drive system, with a top speed of 155 mph. The added radar and cameras can recognize pedestrians and road signs, enabling automatic parking, highway autonomous driving, and automatic following in traffic jams. The biggest change for drivers and passengers in the new model is the upgrade from the original two-wheel drive to four-wheel all-wheel drive, which is supported by two motors: one motor drives the rear wheels, while another smaller motor drives the front wheels.

What is the difference between 10w and 5w engine oil?

The difference between 10w and 5w engine oil lies in their low-temperature viscosity, maximum applicable temperature, and wear reduction effects. Here are the specific details: 1. Firstly, 10w engine oil has poorer low-temperature viscosity and fluidity compared to 5w engine oil, and it is suitable for higher minimum temperatures. 2. Secondly, 10w engine oil can withstand higher maximum temperatures than 5w engine oil, and it has a broader applicable temperature range. 3. The wear reduction effect of 10w engine oil on parts is better than that of 5w engine oil. The 'w' stands for 'winter,' and the smaller the number before 'w,' the lower the applicable temperature. When choosing engine oil for your car, it is essential to select the appropriate grade based on the temperature conditions of your location. In northern regions where temperatures are lower, a smaller number before 'w' is definitely better.

How to eliminate the tire pressure monitoring alarm in a car?

There is a tire pressure reset button near the gear shift lever; press and hold it to eliminate the tire pressure monitoring alarm light. Below is relevant information about tire pressure monitoring: 1. Many cars are equipped with tire pressure monitoring devices, and most tire pressure monitoring systems use wheel speed sensors to monitor the rotation speed of the wheels. When the tire pressure of a certain wheel is abnormal, the rotation speed of that wheel will also be abnormal. At this time, the wheel speed sensor can detect it, and the tire pressure monitoring system warning light on the dashboard will illuminate to alert the driver. 2. The tire pressure should not be too high or too low. If the tire pressure is too low, wave deformation may occur during high-speed driving, increasing the risk of a tire blowout. If the tire pressure is too high, it will reduce the contact area between the tire and the ground, thereby decreasing grip and affecting handling. During regular use of the car, it is recommended that drivers frequently check their tire pressure and also inspect the tire surface for any damage.

What are the functions of the engine lubrication system?

Detailed introduction to the functions of the engine lubrication system: 1. Lubrication function: Engine oil forms an oil film between moving parts, reducing friction resistance and power loss, and minimizing component wear. 2. Cooling function: The fluidity of engine oil carries away some of the heat from engine components, preventing excessive temperatures that could lead to burning or damage. 3. Cleaning function: The circulating engine oil removes metal particles generated during engine operation, dust inhaled from the atmosphere, and some solid substances produced by fuel combustion, preventing the formation of abrasives between parts that could accelerate wear. 4. Sealing function: The viscosity of engine oil allows it to adhere to the surfaces of moving parts, improving sealing effectiveness and reducing gas leakage. 5. Anti-rust function: The principle is that the lubricating oil film adheres to metal surfaces, isolating air and water, thereby providing rust and corrosion prevention.

Why can't CVT use a circulation machine for oil change?

Cvt using a circulation machine for oil change will increase the amount of transmission oil used, thereby raising the cost, so it is not recommended to use a circulation machine for CVT oil change. Here is more information about transmission oil change: 1. One method is the traditional gravity method to drain the oil, which has the same principle as changing engine oil. It involves loosening the transmission's drain screw to release the oil and then refilling with new oil. 2. Another method uses a circulation machine to change automatic transmission oil, mainly utilizing the machine's pressure to dynamically replace the oil in the torque converter's lubrication pipe and cooling pipe. 3. When using a circulation machine for oil change, the oil pump continuously pumps new oil into the transmission while the suction pipe continuously draws out the old oil from the transmission's drain port. By controlling the amount of oil added and drained to be equal, the total amount of oil inside the transmission is maintained. This process requires a large amount of transmission oil, resulting in higher costs.

Will having an uninspected vehicle under my name affect buying a new car?

An uninspected vehicle that hasn't been scrapped won't affect purchasing a new car, but you cannot use the original license plate. According to Article 9 of the "Motor Vehicle Registration Regulations", registration will not be granted under any of the following circumstances: 1. The certificates or vouchers submitted by the vehicle owner are invalid; 2. The vehicle's origin certificate has been altered or the vehicle owner recorded in the origin certificate doesn't match the identity certificate; 3. The certificates or vouchers submitted by the vehicle owner don't match the vehicle; 4. The vehicle was produced without permission from the competent motor vehicle product department under the State Council or imported without permission from the national motor vehicle import department; 5. The vehicle's technical data doesn't match the data announced by the competent motor vehicle product department under the State Council.
