Rental car coverage refers to the rental car expense insurance. Rental car expense insurance is a type of insurance where, if the insured vehicle is damaged due to collisions, overturns, etc., requiring it to be sent for repairs, and the insured needs to pay for a rental car, the insurer will compensate based on the agreed coverage limit. Rental car expense insurance is an add-on to vehicle damage insurance, so it cannot be purchased separately. It must be added on top of an existing vehicle damage insurance policy. After purchasing rental car expense insurance, if you need to file a claim with the insurer, you must prepare the insurance policy, the insured's ID card, the insured vehicle's registration certificate, the driver's license, and the rental car expense receipts. Additionally, you will need to provide a traffic accident liability determination certificate or an agreement documenting the traffic accident as per the "Traffic Accident Handling Procedures." However, the insurer will not cover rental car expenses if the vehicle is confiscated, impounded, or seized. Similarly, if the vehicle requires re-repair due to substandard repair quality, leading to continued rental car expenses, the insurer will not provide compensation.

Can BMW Mini drive on the highway?

BMW's Mini models can drive on the highway. Any car with a designed speed exceeding 70 kilometers per hour is allowed to drive on highways. Strictly adhere to highway speed limits: This includes both maximum and minimum speed limits. Do not exceed the maximum speed or drive below the minimum speed, as both can easily lead to safety hazards. On a two-lane highway, use the left lane. On highways with three or more lanes, stay in the middle lane. The right lane often has many large trucks, so try to stay away from it. Check your car's condition before entering the highway: Pay special attention to the fuel tank, tires, brakes, and windshield fluid. If the tires are severely damaged, replace them first. If there are issues with the brakes, repair them promptly. Due to the high speeds on highways, the windshield can quickly accumulate insect remains, making windshield fluid essential.

What Causes a BMW Mini to Sound the Alarm for No Reason?

BMW Mini sounding the alarm for no reason is due to the high sensitivity of the trigger, doors not being closed properly, or a controller malfunction. Below are the specific causes and solutions for a BMW Mini sounding the alarm for no reason: Trigger sensitivity is too high: This is one of the common reasons why car alarms sound without cause. Such alarms may also activate intermittently, responding to minor vibrations or noises. Sometimes, even loud vibrations can trigger the car alarm. If the alarm is too sensitive, there is a sensitivity adjustment knob on the anti-theft vibration sensor—simply fine-tune it to resolve the issue. Doors not closed properly: This doesn't just refer to the car doors but also includes the engine hood or the trunk. If any of these components are not properly closed, the car alarm will activate. If left unaddressed, the alarm will continue to sound until the car battery dies or the door is properly shut. Controller malfunction: Another possible cause is a faulty alarm controller. If it short-circuits or fails, the car alarm will also sound. If the issue is identified as the car alarm itself, it should be addressed promptly. During daily driving, if the car alarm sounds, check immediately if someone is tampering with the vehicle. If the alarm activation is not due to human interference, a thorough inspection is necessary.

What is the torque specification for BMW N20 cylinder head bolts?

All bolts of the BMW N20 cylinder head cover should be tightened to a torque of 9.2Nm. To meet the torque requirement: After tightening all the cylinder head cover bolts, re-tighten them again in the same sequence using 9.2Nm to ensure all bolts meet the required 9.2Nm torque specification. Generally, cylinder head bolts require 8-9 kg of torque. Single and double-acting cylinders: Single-acting cylinders have a piston rod on only one end. Compressed air is supplied to one side of the piston to generate pressure, which pushes the piston to extend. The piston returns via spring force or its own weight. Double-acting cylinders: Compressed air is alternately supplied to both sides of the piston, generating force in one or both directions. Diaphragm cylinders: These use a diaphragm instead of a piston and generate force in only one direction, returning via spring force. They offer good sealing performance but have a short stroke. Impact cylinders: This is a new type of component. It converts the pressure energy of compressed gas into the kinetic energy of high-speed piston movement (10-20 m/s) to perform work. Impact cylinders feature an additional middle cover with a nozzle and a drain port.
