A few days ago when I went to repair my BMW, I encountered several cars that couldn't reset their maintenance information. One common reason is using the wrong diagnostic tool - BMW has specialized scanning equipment, and if you use generic OBD devices or outdated software, the system might reject the commands. Another possibility is that the vehicle's software system is outdated and needs a control module update at the dealership. Also, the maintenance counter runs in the background - if sensor data is abnormal or the reset process gets interrupted, it may lock up and require professional equipment to reinitialize. I recommend owners regularly perform system scans, especially for new models which are prone to bugs. If you can't solve it yourself, visiting an authorized service center is the safest option - don't attempt random fixes as this might lead to misdiagnosis and additional faults.

I've been driving a BMW for five years and encountered an issue where the maintenance reminder just wouldn't go away. The reasons are usually quite simple, such as improper operation: sometimes selecting the reset in the system menu but making a mistake in the steps or not pressing the button firmly enough; or unstable vehicle power, like when the battery voltage is too low and doesn't provide the system with enough power to complete the action. Also, BMW's software occasionally acts up—after certain updates, it might temporarily not respond to reset requests, requiring the next ignition start or a reset. I checked some forums myself, and many people said going to a 4S dealership with the original computer could solve it, as they can calibrate the sensors and clear the count. Remember, don't ignore this issue for too long, or the constant dashboard reminders will become very annoying.

Can You Continue Driving with a Cracked Windshield?

You can drive at low speeds with a cracked windshield, but there is a significant risk when driving at high speeds. If there are cracks on the surface of the windshield, it is recommended that the owner replace it with a new one. Normally, the front and rear windshields are more prone to damage during vehicle use. When driving at high speeds, flying stones can easily crack the front windshield. Owners who frequently drive on highways should be cautious and avoid following large trucks or trailers.

Nowadays, car windshields are typically made from single-piece curved glass, gradually replacing the older flat-type windshields.

What to Do When Exhaust Carbon Monoxide Levels Exceed Standards?

Solutions for excessive carbon monoxide in exhaust include: inspecting the air filter, spark plugs, intake air temperature sensor, and intake manifold pressure sensor; adding dual-core friction-reducing repair agents and high-efficiency cleaners; if ineffective, cleaning the three-way catalytic converter. Excessive exhaust emissions mainly refer to carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, nitrogen-hydrogen compounds, etc., exceeding national exhaust emission standards. These excessive emissions are directly related to carbon deposits in the fuel supply system. More carbon deposits lead to severe exhaust emissions, while fewer result in minor issues. Excessive carbon monoxide in car exhaust is primarily due to poor combustion. Causes of this phenomenon include: failed spark plugs, poor ignition, excessive cylinder wall clearance, uncalibrated valve timing, failed three-way catalytic converter, poor fuel injector atomization, etc.
