One reason for uneven reflection on the paint of a BMW hood is poor leveling, resulting in excessive orange peel after spraying. Another reason is that the paint dried too quickly during application, causing the layers to not blend properly, creating an uneven and pitted appearance. Minor Paint Damage: Minor scratches on a car are inevitable. Even small stones flying off the road can cause scratches. These are light abrasions that leave marks, which may seem removable by wiping with a damp towel a couple of times. If the scratches are not very noticeable, simply applying wax will suffice. Moderate Paint Damage: Use polishing compounds such as water wax or soft wax, available in both solid and liquid forms.

How to Match the Tire Pressure Sensor of Refine M4?

Inflate the tire pressure of Refine M4 to the normal range, conduct a road test, maintain the speed above 25 mph, and drive for at least 15 minutes to complete the automatic matching. Alternatively, you can use professional diagnostic equipment to input the sensor ID number into the vehicle's computer for matching. Tire Pressure Monitoring: Tire pressure monitoring is the real-time automatic monitoring of tire pressure during vehicle operation, with alerts for tire leaks and low pressure to ensure driving safety. Direct Tire Pressure Monitoring: Direct tire pressure monitoring devices use pressure sensors installed in each tire to directly measure tire pressure. The pressure information is transmitted from inside the tire to a central receiver module via a wireless transmitter, and then the tire pressure data is displayed. The system automatically alerts when the tire pressure is too low or there is a leak. Indirect Tire Pressure Monitoring: When the pressure in a tire decreases, the vehicle's weight causes the rolling radius of that wheel to become smaller, resulting in a faster rotation speed compared to other wheels. By comparing the speed differences between tires, the system monitors tire pressure. Indirect tire pressure alert systems essentially rely on calculating the rolling radius of tires to monitor pressure. Introduction to Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS): It combines the advantages of both systems mentioned above, equipping direct sensors in two diagonally opposite tires and incorporating a 4-wheel indirect system. Compared to using only direct systems, this hybrid system can reduce costs and overcome the limitation of indirect systems in detecting simultaneous low pressure in multiple tires. However, it still cannot provide real-time data of the actual pressure in all four tires as a direct system does.

What is the tire size of the Kia K3?

The tire size of the Kia K3 is 225/45R17. The first number 225 represents the tire width of 225MM, 40 indicates the aspect ratio of the tire section is 40%, meaning the section height is 40% of the width, and 17 denotes the rim diameter of 17 inches. The middle letter "R" stands for radial tire. The original tires for the Kia K3 are randomly assembled by the manufacturer and may include brands such as Kumho, Nexen, and Hankook. The spare tire is non-full size. If you want to replace the tires yourself, you can follow these steps: Retrieve the spare tire and jack, place the jack under the vehicle frame near the tire to be replaced, ensuring it contacts the metal part of the frame; Raise the jack until it supports the car, making sure the jack is positioned under the vehicle and forms a right angle with the ground; Remove the hubcap, loosen the nuts counterclockwise, but do not fully unscrew them—just enough to eliminate resistance. Keeping the tire on the ground when first loosening the nuts ensures that the nuts turn, not the tire; Turn the nuts counterclockwise until they are loose, repeat this step for all lug nuts, then fully remove the nuts; Place the new tire onto the wheel hub, carefully aligning the tire rim with the wheel bolts. Install the lug nuts and hand-tighten them until all nuts are concealed. At this point, the tire replacement is complete. In addition to the model, 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 tires. Speed rating: Indicates the maximum speed the tire can carry the specified load under specified conditions. Letters A to Z represent certified speed ratings from 4.8km/h to 300km/h. Common speed ratings include: Q: 160km/h; H: 210km/h; V: 240km/h; W: 270km/h; Y: 300km/h; Rim specification: Shows the rim size compatible with the tire for practical use, such as "Standard Rim 5.00F".
