BMW X3's low-speed jerking is mostly caused by the intervention of BMW's kinetic energy recovery system, which can be resolved by unchecking the coasting option in the driving mode. Below is an extended introduction to this issue: 1. Introduction to the kinetic energy recovery system: The kinetic energy recovery system activates the generator when the driver releases the accelerator pedal or presses the brake pedal, converting the excess energy generated by the car's movement into electrical energy, thereby reducing fuel consumption. 2. Introduction to battery charging: As long as the engine is running, the generator will operate accordingly, continuously charging the battery. However, this operation is sometimes redundant because the battery may not require that much power, and electronic devices may not consume that much electricity, so there is no need to always have the generator producing electricity to consume the engine's power. Since BMW uses AGM maintenance-free batteries, the battery has a longer service life and more sufficient power storage. In most cases, it is sufficient to meet the power demand. Therefore, the system will only connect the generator to charge the battery when the battery level drops to 50%.

Can Flood-Damaged Cars Be Sold?

Flood-damaged cars cannot be sold because even after repairs, they can malfunction at any time like a 'ticking time bomb.' The issues with flood-damaged cars are as follows: 1. Frequent electrical failures: The entire vehicle's wiring has been submerged, leading to frequent electrical malfunctions later on. 2. Decreased engine performance: After repairs, the engine's performance declines, and the assembly quality cannot meet original standards. 3. Metal rust: Metal parts are prone to rust, and once rust spots form, they significantly accelerate further corrosion. 4. Unpleasant odors: The car will have a musty smell that is nearly impossible to eliminate.

Is it better to have higher or slightly lower tire pressure on the highway?

It is better to have slightly lower tire pressure on the highway, but not too low. The main reasons are as follows: 1. Pressure increases: When driving at high speeds on the highway, continuous friction generates heat in the tires, causing the internal gas pressure to rise. 2. High temperatures can lead to punctures: In summer, combined with high temperatures, excessive tire pressure can easily cause punctures, leading to traffic accidents. 3. Risks of too low pressure: If the pressure is too low, the contact area between the tire and the ground increases, accelerating tire wear and increasing fuel consumption.

Where is the car GPS usually installed?

Car GPS devices are generally installed in the following locations: 1. Front and rear bumpers: Install the GPS tracker inside the rear bumper. Firstly, because the bumper has an uneven shape, making it suitable for placing the tracker in the grooves; secondly, because wireless GPS trackers are usually placed inside the bumper, which is sufficiently concealed and secure. 2. Inside the trunk: The satellite signal is relatively unobstructed in the trunk, ensuring it doesn’t affect the positioning accuracy. 3. Inside the spare tire: It’s best to use the spare tire mounted on the rear of the vehicle rather than the one stored inside the trunk. This is because the trunk + spare tire + metal layers of the spare tire casing contain too much metal, which can significantly interfere with the GPS signal.

How Do Modified Vehicles Pass Annual Inspections?

Automotive exterior modifications must comply with national regulations. It is necessary to complete the modification registration at the local vehicle management office as required and obtain a new vehicle license to pass the annual inspection smoothly. Failure to register with the local vehicle management office will result in failing the inspection. Below are the specifications for vehicle modifications: 1. Installation of roof racks, side steps, bumpers, and replacement of wheels is permitted. 2. Modification of exhaust systems and installation of rear spoilers is allowed. 3. The new "Regulations" also stipulate that officers and inspectors in the inspection area must wear law enforcement recorders and upload data in real-time to the Ministry of Public Security's network to prevent scalpers.

What does it mean when nanoe appears in the car?

When nanoe appears in the car, it refers to the onboard air purifier in the vehicle. There are many types of onboard air purifiers in cars, with the most common being box-shaped, relatively large in size, and requiring the use of the car's power cord. Generally, the onboard purifier is connected to the car's cigarette lighter. Its function is to optimize the air by generating a large number of negative oxygen ions, removing smoke and dust, eliminating odors inside the car, and keeping the air inside the car fresh and natural. Advantages of the onboard air purifier: 1. Small particles and weak acidity, which do not affect the skin and are more suitable for sensitive individuals; 2. Good stability; 3. High amount of OH ions; 4. Fresh scent.
