The solution for the failure of the parking brake in BMW X3 is: If the power supply is restored after emergency operation, the parking brake button must be pressed three times. Relevant information about the automatic parking is as follows: 1. Introduction: Automatic parking, also known as AUTO-HOLD, refers to an automatic braking function. After activating this function, for example, when stopping at a traffic light, there is no need to pull the handbrake. It simplifies the operation by avoiding the use of the handbrake or electronic parking brake, and for automatic transmission models, it eliminates the frequent switching between D to N or D to P. 2. Working principle: The AUTO-HOLD automatic parking function provides accurate parking force through a slope sensor controlled by the system. During startup, the parking control unit calculates information provided by sensors such as the clutch distance sensor, clutch engagement speed sensor, and throttle pedal sensor. When the driving force exceeds the running resistance, the parking brake is automatically released, allowing the car to start smoothly.

What Causes BMW's Unstable Idle Speed Fluctuation?

BMW's unstable idle speed fluctuation can be attributed to the following reasons: 1. Intake pipe leakage. The intake system contains numerous intake manifolds or various valves, and any leakage can allow unwanted air to enter, causing the air-fuel mixture in the intake manifold to become either too rich or too lean, ultimately leading to unstable or fluctuating idle speed. 2. Fuel system blockage or malfunction. Blockages in the fuel tank vent hole, fuel tank switch, fuel filter, or the fuel line between the tank and the carburetor can prevent the engine from receiving the required amount of fuel during idle, resulting in a lean mixture and unstable idle speed. 3. Idle control valve failure. The idle operation of electronically fuel-injected engines is mostly controlled by the idle control valve. A malfunction can cause uneven air distribution, leading to fluctuating power output at idle. 4. Carbon buildup. Excessive carbon deposits inside the engine can reduce ignition energy and intake efficiency, ultimately causing unstable power output, idle speed fluctuations, and poor acceleration. 5. Cold start. During a cold start, the engine injects more fuel, resulting in a higher idle speed, especially after prolonged inactivity or in cold environments. The idle speed will return to normal once the engine warms up.
