Can You Still Drive with an Overheated Engine Coolant?

If the coolant temperature is too high, it is recommended not to drive the car for safety reasons. You should stop the vehicle (but do not turn off the engine immediately) and check the following: top up the coolant; inspect whether the thermostat is functioning properly; park in a shaded area; and continuously monitor the temperature gauge while driving, ensuring it does not exceed 95°C. To prevent engine overheating, pay attention to the following points: 1. Ensure the coolant is topped up; 2. Check if the thermostat is working correctly. If the thermostat fails to open the main valve as required, replace it with a new one promptly. If a replacement is not immediately available, temporarily remove the thermostat, but never leave a faulty thermostat at the outlet of the water jacket; 3. Park in a shaded area. If the engine temperature is too high, choose a shaded spot to park and cool down; 4. Continuously monitor the temperature gauge while driving, ensuring it does not exceed 95°C. In special circumstances, to enhance convective cooling, you can lift the engine hood to improve ventilation and heat dissipation.

Is the Mercedes-Benz C260 tire a run-flat tire?

Mercedes-Benz C260 tires are not run-flat tires. Additional information: Mercedes-Benz does not come equipped with run-flat tires; only BMW vehicles are originally equipped with run-flat tires. Generally, run-flat tires can continue to be driven for up to 80 kilometers after a puncture, which is sufficient to get the car to a shop for a tire change. However, run-flat tires have relatively poor comfort, so many car owners prefer regular tires. The C260 tire specifications are as follows: The Mercedes-Benz C260 tire model is 225/45-R17. The Mercedes-Benz C260 is equipped with a double overhead camshaft turbocharged direct-injection inline 4-cylinder engine, with a maximum power speed (rpm) of 5500, maximum torque (Nm) of 310, maximum torque speed (rpm) of 2000-4300, front tire specifications of 225/45R17, rear tire specifications of 225/45R17, and a non-full-size spare tire.

What are the hazards of tire pressure loss in BMW 3 Series?

Tire pressure loss in BMW 3 Series can increase tire body deformation, easily causing cracks on the tire sidewalls while generating flexing motion. This leads to excessive heat buildup, accelerating rubber aging, fatigue of the cord ply, and breakage of cord wires. It also increases the tire's contact area with the ground, accelerating wear on the tire shoulders. Causes of tire pressure loss: During vehicle usage, tire pressure loss may occur. If it's simply air leakage, inflation is sufficient. If the tire is damaged, timely repair or replacement is necessary. Tire pressure loss isn't terrifying - what matters is that owners understand its hazards and address it promptly to prevent accidents. Definition of tire pressure: Strictly speaking, it refers to the air pressure inside the tire. In automotive maintenance, while the engine is considered the heart of a car (its failure means the end of the vehicle's life), tire pressure is like the car's blood pressure. The level of tire pressure plays a crucial role in the vehicle's performance and power.
