BMW F35 is the long-wheelbase version of the BMW 3 Series, which belongs to the sixth generation of BMW 3 Series models. The sixth-generation BMW 3 Series is equipped with three types of engines: a 1.5-liter turbocharged three-cylinder engine, a low-power version of the 2.0-liter turbocharged engine, and a high-power version of the 2.0-liter turbocharged engine. The BMW 3 Series is a mid-size sedan, featuring a longitudinally mounted rear-wheel-drive layout. Its body dimensions are 4624mm in length, 1811mm in width, 1429mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2810mm. In terms of exterior design, the sixth-generation 3 Series closely resembles the E90, maintaining a similar overall style. The headlights feature an extended "eyelid" design, integrated with the signature kidney grille, giving it a sharper and more youthful appearance. The iconic angel-eye headlights continue to embody BMW's classic design.

I know the BMW F35 is the long-wheelbase version of the sixth-generation BMW 3 Series, specifically designed for the Chinese market. Speaking of which, it's worth mentioning BMW's chassis code system: F represents the sixth generation launched around 2011, and 35 denotes the long-wheelbase version. Based on the previous-generation E90, the F35 increased rear passenger space, making it particularly suitable for family users, with models like the 320Li being very popular. I've heard from friends who drove older 3 Series models that the F35 isn't as sporty in handling but offers much-improved comfort, making daily commutes smoother. Now that the seventh-generation G20 is out, the F35 remains popular in the used car market, with lower maintenance costs than luxury cars, making it a worthy consideration for a first BMW.

How to eliminate the ABS warning light displayed on the car?

"ABS" stands for "Anti-lock Braking System". The methods to eliminate the ABS warning light displayed on the car are as follows: 1. Visit a 4S shop for professional repair and use a computer to clear the fault code. 2. You can try to diagnose and eliminate the fault cause by yourself. The reasons that may cause the ABS light to turn on are as follows: 1. The battery voltage is too low. Check whether the battery voltage is at 12V. 2. ABS circuit fault. Check the relay and ABS control circuit to see if there are broken wires, loose interfaces, or relays not installed firmly. 3. Check the fluid level in the brake master cylinder reservoir. If the fluid level is too low, add brake fluid to bring the level back to the normal range. 4. Faulty wheel speed sensor. Check the four wheel speed sensors for any foreign objects.

How to use ETC?

ETC usage methods are as follows: 1. If the highway toll station has dedicated ETC lanes at the entrance or exit, vehicle owners can directly pass through the ETC lane without stopping. 2. If the toll station entrance has a dedicated ETC lane but the exit does not or it is closed for some reason, the vehicle owner can remove the ETC card from the onboard electronic tag at the manual toll lane exit and hand it to the toll collector for swiping to pass and pay the toll. 3. If the entrance toll station does not have a dedicated ETC lane or it is closed for some reason, but the exit toll station operates normally, the vehicle owner can remove the ETC card at the manual toll lane entrance, hand it to the toll collector for swiping, and then reinsert it to pass directly through the dedicated ETC lane without stopping. 4. If both the highway entrance and exit toll stations do not have dedicated ETC lanes or they are closed for some reason, the vehicle owner can take a toll card or remove the ETC card at the manual toll lane entrance and hand it to the toll collector for swiping to pass. The exit can be processed using the corresponding method. Below is related information about ETC: 1. ETC is an Electronic Toll Collection system. It refers to a system where vehicles passing through a toll station use onboard equipment to achieve vehicle identification, information writing (at the entrance), and automatic deduction of corresponding funds from a pre-bound IC card or bank account (at the exit). It is an electronic toll collection system for roads, bridges, and tunnels that is being actively developed and promoted internationally. 2. Vehicle owners only need to install a sensor card on their car window and prepay the fees. When passing through a toll station, there is no need for manual payment or stopping, as the toll will be automatically deducted from the card.

What is inside a three-way catalytic converter?

A three-way catalytic converter consists of four main components: the shell, vibration damping layer, substrate, and catalyst coating. The specific details about the three-way catalytic converter are as follows: 1. Metals contained in the three-way catalytic converter: Platinum is one of the metals found in automotive three-way catalytic converters. Other metals include cerium, copper, iron, manganese, nickel, palladium, and rhodium. The content of these metals varies depending on the vehicle model and production batch. However, the content of platinum, palladium, and rhodium determines the recycling value of the automotive three-way catalytic converter. 2. The three-way catalytic converter is a crucial external purification device in the automotive exhaust system: It converts harmful gases such as CO, HC, and NOx from vehicle exhaust into harmless carbon dioxide, water, and nitrogen through oxidation and reduction reactions. Since the three-way catalytic converter can simultaneously convert the three main harmful substances in exhaust gases into harmless substances, it is called 'three-way.' 3. Working principle of the three-way catalytic converter: When high-temperature vehicle exhaust passes through the purification device, the catalyst in the three-way catalytic converter enhances the activity of CO, HC, and NOx gases, promoting specific oxidation-reduction chemical reactions. This process transforms the three harmful gases into harmless ones, thereby purifying the vehicle exhaust.

What to Do When the Car Interior Temperature is High?

When the car interior temperature is high, the specific solutions are as follows: 1. Continuously open and close the car doors: Quickly replace the hot air inside the car through air exchange by first opening the passenger-side door, then opening and closing the driver-side door 5 to 10 times to release the hot air inside. 2. Replace with a spare ventilated seat cushion: After getting out of the car, place the cushion in a cooler spot inside the car. When you get back in, using the cushion placed earlier will separate you from the original hot cushion, helping to lower the interior temperature. 3. Use physical cooling methods: Prepare a cooling spray by mixing alcohol with water in a ratio of 1 (alcohol) to 10 (water). After mixing, pour it into a spray bottle. When using, open the car doors and windows, then spray the mixture around the car interior. After one minute, the temperature inside the car will noticeably drop. 4. Turn on the car air conditioning's cooling mode: Activating the car air conditioning's cooling mode will blow cold air, helping to cool down the interior faster.

What does the violation code 60230 mean?

The violation code 60230 means: Driving a motor vehicle on roads other than expressways or urban expressways without following the designated lane. According to the relevant provisions of the "Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China," the penalty is: 0 demerit points; fine amount: 50 yuan; other penalties: none. Traffic violation codes consist of four to five digits, classified according to the principles in the traffic law. The order from left to right is: the first digit represents the behavior classification code, the second digit represents the demerit point classification code, the third and fourth digits are sequential codes, and the fifth digit indicates the item number. First digit: Behavior classification code, indicating the category in the Road Traffic Law; Second digit: Demerit point classification code, indicating the classification of demerit points for traffic violations; Third, fourth, and fifth digits: Sequential code, indicating the order of the behavior within the same classification. For example, 13035—"1" indicates motor vehicle behavior, the second digit "3" means 3 demerit points, and "035" indicates the fifth item under the third category of 3-point violations. Behavior classification code explanation: Codes starting with "1" indicate motor vehicle traffic, e.g., 1003; Codes starting with "2" indicate non-motor vehicle traffic, e.g., 2002; Codes starting with "3" indicate pedestrian or passenger traffic, e.g., 3030; Codes starting with "4" indicate expressway traffic, e.g., 4002; Codes starting with "5" indicate other regulations, e.g., 5005; Codes starting with "7" indicate provincial, autonomous region, or municipal implementation rules, e.g., 7008; Codes starting with "8" indicate local regulations of cities (prefectures, autonomous prefectures, or leagues), e.g., 8606. There are four common ways to check motor vehicle violations: Visit the office halls of traffic police departments in various districts or counties to inquire via touch-screen terminals; Log in to the public service website of the local Public Security Bureau's Traffic Management Bureau, find the vehicle violation inquiry section, enter the license plate number and engine number, and click "Query"; Call the inquiry hotline (area code + 114); Use the Traffic Management 12123 app (V2.8.1B437 for iOS 15+ or V2.8.1B274 for Android 12+) to check. For the violation of driving a motor vehicle on roads other than expressways or urban expressways without following the designated lane, you can handle it through the Traffic Management 12123 app. After logging in, enter the violation processing workflow, complete the process, and make the payment.

Where Are the Clutch and Accelerator Located?

Here is a detailed introduction to the positions of the car clutch and accelerator: 1. Introduction to the positions of the clutch and accelerator in manual and automatic transmission cars: Manual transmission cars have three pedals, arranged from left to right as the clutch, brake, and accelerator. Automatic transmission cars have only two pedals, arranged from left to right as the brake and accelerator, and do not have a clutch. 2. Function of the car clutch: During driving, the driver can press or release the clutch pedal as needed to temporarily separate or gradually engage the engine and transmission, thereby cutting off or transmitting the engine's power to the transmission. The clutch ensures smooth starting or seamless gear shifting. 3. Function of the car accelerator: By controlling the amount of pedal depression, the throttle opening is adjusted to regulate the air intake. The computer then controls the fuel injection, thereby controlling the engine's speed. 4. Function of the car brake: The brake is used to decelerate or bring the vehicle to a stop.
