As a car enthusiast, I know the chassis codes for the BMW 1 Series vary by generation. The first-gen 1 Series, roughly the 2004 to 2013 hatchback version, used the E87 chassis code; the second-gen from 2011 to 2019 primarily used F20 and F21; the current third-gen since 2019 mostly uses F40. These codes aren't just numbers—they represent different design and handling characteristics. For example, the E87 emphasized rear-wheel-drive sportiness, the F20 focused on fuel efficiency and practicality, while the F40 shifted to front-wheel-drive for daily adaptability. I've driven the F20 model, and its suspension was tuned quite soft, making it ideal for city driving. The evolution of chassis codes reflects BMW's shift from pure performance to comfort. For buyers, checking the model year helps avoid missing key details. Maintenance is simpler too—just remember to verify the code to prevent buying wrong parts.

Will Points Be Deducted for Forgetting to Turn Off the Turn Signal?

According to the regulations for the Subject 2 driving test, failing to turn off the turn signal does not result in point deductions. However, not using the turn signal or using it incorrectly will result in a 10-point deduction. The specific regulations are as follows: Failing to use or incorrectly using the turn signal before starting, turning, changing lanes, overtaking, or parking will result in a 10-point deduction. Turning the steering wheel within 3 seconds of activating the turn signal before starting, turning, changing lanes, overtaking, or parking will result in a 10-point deduction. There are 6 instances in Subject 2 where the turn signal must be used, which are: When starting the vehicle, activate the left turn signal; When starting on a slope, activate the left turn signal; During parallel parking, activate the right turn signal when the vehicle passes the parking spot and pulls over to the side, stopping 30 cm from the curb before preparing to reverse; Before shifting into reverse during parallel parking, activate the left turn signal because the steering wheel will be turned fully to the right during reversing, causing the front of the vehicle to shift left; Before exiting the parking spot during parallel parking, shift into drive and activate the left turn signal, turning it off promptly after exiting; When entering the right-angle turn area, activate the left turn signal and turn it off promptly after completing the turn. Subject 2 is scored out of 100 points, with evaluation criteria for failing, deducting 20 points, deducting 10 points, and deducting 5 points. The test is passed if the following conditions are met: ① For large passenger vehicles, tractors, city buses, medium passenger vehicles, and large trucks, a score of 90 or above is required; ② For other vehicle types, a score of 80 or above is required. The C1 and C2 license tests include five mandatory items: reversing into a parking space, parallel parking, slope start and stop (C2 has canceled this item), right-angle turn, and curve driving (commonly known as the S-curve) (some regions also include a sixth item: highway toll card collection). The A1, A2, A3, B1, and B2 license tests include: pole test, slope start and stop, parallel parking, single-plank bridge, curve driving, right-angle turn, narrow gate passage, continuous obstacle passage, bumpy road driving, narrow road U-turn, as well as simulated highway driving, continuous sharp mountain curves, tunnels, rain (fog) conditions, slippery roads, and emergency handling.

What is the difference between TX and TXL?

TX is the standard version, mainly found in the Middle East's Kuwait edition; TXL is the low-end Middle East version, with configurations equivalent to the mid-to-high-end standard version. Here are the relevant details: 1. Taking the Toyota Prado as an example: The rear of the Toyota Prado often displays labels such as TX, TXL, and VX, which indicate low, standard, and high configurations, respectively, represented by letters. 2. The Toyota Prado models with rear labels VX, TX, and TXL: Their core components—engine, transmission, and chassis—are identical. In terms of power, all use a 3.5L naturally aspirated V6 engine with a maximum horsepower of 280 and a maximum torque of 365 N·m, with no difference. The transmission is also a 6-speed automatic, and the chassis features a front double-wishbone independent suspension and a rear four-link non-independent suspension, along with the standard non-load-bearing body used in off-road vehicles. 3. The Toyota Prado models VX, TX, and TXL: Although they are nearly identical in terms of power and chassis quality, there are significant differences in comfort, technology, and safety configurations, leading to price variations among the three models. The lowest-end TX: Compared to the high-end VX, it lacks safety features like tire pressure monitoring and technological features such as front and rear parking sensors, cruise control, and a color trip computer display. Additionally, the seats are manually adjusted and made of fabric. 4. The TX's exterior lacks daytime running lights and uses halogen headlights. The TXL, however, adds features like lane departure warning, 360° panoramic imaging, heated steering wheel, and rain-sensing wipers. Moreover, the TXL version of the Toyota Prado features automatically tilting side mirrors when reversing.

What does the lock mode mean in a four-wheel drive vehicle?

Four-wheel drive lock mode refers to the locking of all four wheels in a four-wheel drive vehicle. Here is some relevant information: 1. All-wheel drive, also known as four-wheel drive, means that both the front and rear wheels of the vehicle have power. It is generally represented by 4x4 or 4WD. If you see these markings on a vehicle, it indicates that the vehicle has four-wheel drive capability. 2. All-wheel drive can be divided into two types: one is full-time all-wheel drive, which means the vehicle is always in all-wheel drive mode. The other is part-time all-wheel drive, which can cut off the power to a specific axle to reduce fuel consumption and wear, and only engage all-wheel drive when needed. 3. AWD can achieve optimal handling at all times. Compared to RWD and FWD, AWD distributes less traction to each driving wheel, so there is less likelihood of traction exceeding the friction between the tires and the ground, meaning the driving wheels are less likely to slip. Clearly, four-wheel drive provides a higher level of traction and handling because the traction is shared by four wheels instead of two. It can handle higher cornering limits, especially on rough or slippery surfaces, which is why AWD has been primarily used in WRC racing since Audi introduced it in the 1980s. 4. Full-time AWD cars tend to have neutral steering tendencies, thanks to the traction being shared by all four wheels. In fact, this is also related to weight distribution, and typically, full-time AWD cars have a 50:50 weight distribution between the front and rear, making it difficult to experience oversteer.
