The fuel tank capacity of the BMW X3 is 72 liters, as officially announced. Owners who have purchased the BMW X3 can also verify this information on the vehicle's configuration sheet. The BMW X3 requires 95-octane fuel, with a fuel consumption of 8.4-8.7L per 100 kilometers. A full tank of fuel allows for a driving range of approximately 828-857 kilometers. During daily driving, it is essential to monitor the remaining fuel level in the tank. This is typically observed through the fuel gauge inside the vehicle. Under normal circumstances, the fuel level will be accurately reflected on the gauge. The fuel gauge usually has 5 to 6 segments, and it is advisable to refuel when only 2 segments remain to avoid running out of fuel mid-journey. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel added may exceed the marked capacity. This is because the fuel tank capacity specified by the manufacturer is measured from the bottom of the tank to the safe fill level. There is additional space from the safe fill level to the tank opening, which is designed to accommodate fuel expansion due to temperature increases, preventing overflow. If fuel is filled up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual amount of fuel added may exceed the marked tank capacity.

I remember I've been driving a BMW X3 for about two years now, with a fuel tank capacity of approximately 58 liters. This size is quite practical for me—I only need to refuel once a week for my daily commute, covering around 500 kilometers. If you frequently drive on highways, the range can be even longer. Fuel tank size is quite crucial when choosing a car, especially for SUVs, as it affects both cost and time savings. I recommend checking the specific model year, as some newer X3 models might have tanks close to 62 liters, depending on the engine type. Overall, 58 liters is about average, and keeping the fuel level above half always gives peace of mind, avoiding the awkward situation of running out of gas midway.

What does the TC light on the car dashboard mean?

When the TC light appears on the car dashboard, it refers to the Traction Control System. When the ABS (Anti-lock Braking System) detects that some wheels are slipping, it will apply braking to the slipping wheels to prevent loss of traction on those wheels. The full English name of TC is Traction Control System, which is translated into Chinese as the Anti-slip Tracking Control System. The purpose of the TC system is to maintain the vehicle's trajectory to match the driver's control. The traction control system relies on electronic sensors to detect when the driven wheels are rotating slower than the driving wheels, and then sends a signal to adjust ignition timing, reduce throttle opening, decrease fuel supply, downshift, or brake the wheels to prevent wheel slip.

Can someone else handle the vehicle annual inspection for me?

Vehicle annual inspections can be handled by someone else on your behalf. According to Article 47, Paragraph 4 of the Motor Vehicle Registration Regulations, if a motor vehicle fails to undergo the required safety technical inspection within the specified period, the public security traffic management department may issue a warning or impose a fine. Driving without a valid inspection is considered illegal, and insurance companies will not provide coverage. Below is relevant information about vehicle annual inspection schedules: 1. For passenger transport vehicles within 5 years, inspections are required annually; after 5 years, every 6 months. 2. Small and micro non-commercial passenger vehicles (9 seats or fewer) require inspections every 2 years within the first 6 years, without the need for on-site testing. 3. Motor vehicles can undergo annual inspections up to 3 months before the expiration date.

Is a Coolant Temperature of 110 Degrees Normal?

Due to the additives in antifreeze, the coolant circulation system is a closed loop, which raises its boiling point. During vehicle design, the normal operating coolant temperature is typically 90 degrees, but short-term temperatures exceeding 100 degrees are permissible, with peak temperatures potentially reaching 110 degrees. However, 110 degrees should only occur temporarily and prolonged operation at this temperature is not allowed. Brief exposure poses no significant harm, but extended periods can be damaging. Here are potential causes: 1. Possible cooling fan circuit malfunction leading to poor heat dissipation. 2. Potential antifreeze deficiency requiring replenishment or leak inspection. 3. Possible water pump failure causing circulation issues. If high coolant temperature is detected while driving, immediately stop the vehicle and shut off the engine to cool down. For occasional temperature spikes, regular monitoring and inspection are recommended to prevent incidents.
