BMW experiencing a jerking sensation during braking can be analyzed from aspects such as low-speed jerking, upshift jerking, and downshift jerking. Below is a detailed analysis: 1. Low-speed jerking: Issues with the transmission gear programming, internal contamination and impurities in the transmission preventing effective adjustment, and poor transmission cooling, which affects oil pressure and causes jerking. 2. Upshift jerking: The transmission's response speed is not fast enough, and the upshift speed cannot keep up with the accelerator pedal's speed. 3. Downshift jerking: Due to the intervention of the energy recovery system, when the driver releases the accelerator pedal or presses the brake pedal, it affects the engine speed, causing the engine speed and the clutch speed to be out of sync, resulting in a jerking sensation.

What are the rules for the reverse parking test in Subject 2?

Detailed introduction to the rules of reverse parking in Subject 2: 1. Failure to enter the parking space: Some students tend to get nervous during the test. The system judges that the main reasons for not entering the parking space are too fast speed, poor clutch control, and inaccurate stopping point, resulting in failure in the first test item of Subject 2. 2. Crossing the line during reverse parking: There are many situations where the line is crossed during the test. For example, turning the steering wheel too late, the car body not being straight, or the speed being too fast. 3. Not following the prescribed route: Due to nervousness during the test, some students directly proceed to the next test item after completing the right reverse parking, ignoring the left reverse parking. Some students directly perform the left reverse parking first and then the right reverse parking, which is also unqualified. 4. Scoring standards for reverse parking: Not following the prescribed route sequence, the car body crossing the line, failure to enter the parking space, the project completion time exceeding 210s, and not having both front wheels touch the ground beyond the control line before reversing will all result in a deduction of 100 points. Stopping for more than 2s during the process will result in a deduction of 5 points per time.

How Often Should You Change the Oil for a Scooter?

For a new scooter, change the oil every 1,000 kilometers initially, and then every 3,000 kilometers thereafter. Below is an introduction to the functions of engine oil: The Lubricating Role of Engine Oil: Between the piston and cylinder, as well as between the main shaft and bearing bush, there is rapid relative sliding. To prevent excessive wear of parts, an oil film needs to be established between the two sliding surfaces. A sufficiently thick oil film separates the surfaces of the relatively sliding parts, thereby reducing wear. The Auxiliary Cooling Role of Engine Oil: Due to its relatively low specific heat value and its location inside the engine, engine oil itself does not have a cooling function. However, as the engine generates heat from fuel combustion during operation, the engine oil can carry the heat back to the oil tank and then dissipate it into the air, assisting the radiator in cooling the engine. The actual cooling is performed by the water outside the engine casing.

What are the adverse effects of driving on icy and snowy roads?

Driving on icy and snowy roads has several adverse effects, including wheel slippage, sideslip, increased risk of rollover, difficulty in control, loss of steering control, and extended braking distance. Here are some precautions for driving on icy and snowy roads: 1. Maintain a safe distance: Do not follow other vehicles too closely, as sudden braking by the vehicle ahead can easily lead to rear-end collisions. Drivers should maintain an appropriate safety distance based on terrain, speed, and load conditions. 2. Avoid overtaking if possible: If overtaking is absolutely necessary due to urgency, choose a wide, flat section with minimal snow and ice, and never force an overtake. When meeting another vehicle, select a flat and wide section, maintain sufficient lateral distance, and avoid getting too close to the roadside. If the road is narrow, the driver with more space should yield by stopping or reversing. 3. Avoid sharp turns: When turning, reduce speed as much as possible in advance, hold the steering wheel firmly, and turn slowly. Increase the turning radius as much as possible without obstructing oncoming traffic to minimize centrifugal force. Never make sudden sharp turns to prevent sideslip or loss of control. 4. Use engine braking to slow down: Avoid emergency braking or sharp steering to evade obstacles, as this may cause sideslip or loss of steering control.

What does a metal belt-type CVT system mainly include?

CVT system mainly includes basic components such as the driving pulley set, driven pulley set, metal belt, and hydraulic pump. The following are relevant details: 1. Metal belt: The metal belt consists of two metal rings and hundreds of metal plates. 2. Driving pulley set and driven pulley set: Both the driving set and the driven pulley set are composed of a movable disc and a fixed disc. The side of the pulley near the oil cylinder can slide on the shaft, while the other side is fixed. Both the movable disc and the fixed disc have a conical surface structure, and their conical surfaces form a V-shaped groove to engage with the V-shaped metal transmission belt. The power output from the engine's output shaft is first transmitted to the driving pulley of the CVT, then transmitted to the driven pulley through the V-shaped transmission belt, and finally transmitted to the wheels through the reducer and differential to drive the car.

What is the maximum speed limit for trucks on highways?

Trucks have a maximum speed limit of 100 km/h on highways. Below are the specific speed regulations for different lanes on highways: 1. Passenger cars: The maximum speed shall not exceed 120 km/h, while other motor vehicles shall not exceed 100 km/h. 2. Motorcycles: Shall not exceed 80 km/h. 3. Lane speeds: If there are 2 lanes in the same direction, the minimum speed for the left lane is 100 km/h; if there are 3 or more lanes in the same direction, the minimum speed for the leftmost lane is 110 km/h, and the minimum speed for the middle lane is 90 km/h.

How many points will be deducted for driving at 84 in an 80 speed limit zone?

As long as the speeding does not exceed 10%, there will be no fine or points deducted. However, in some areas, it may still be considered speeding without imposing fines or penalties. Below is relevant information about highway speed limits: 1. Low-speed restrictions for motor vehicles: On highways, motor vehicles must maintain a minimum speed of no less than 60 km/h. If there are two lanes in the same direction, the minimum speed for the left lane is 100 km/h; if there are three or more lanes in the same direction, the minimum speed for the far-left lane is 110 km/h, and the middle lane's minimum speed is 90 km/h. 2. High-speed restrictions for small passenger vehicles: The maximum speed for small passenger vehicles on highways must not exceed 120 km/h, while other motor vehicles must not exceed 100 km/h, and motorcycles must not exceed 80 km/h. If the speed indicated by road speed limit signs conflicts with the above lane speed regulations, drivers should follow the speed indicated by the road speed limit signs.
