When a car's motor has no power and won't start, you can use the push-start method or the jump-start method. Below are the introductions to these two methods: 1. Push-start method (only for manual transmission cars): This method is commonly seen and is only applicable to manual transmission cars. It involves gathering several people to push the car to get it started. Once the car reaches a certain speed, engage the gear and quickly release the clutch pedal while pressing the accelerator. As soon as the engine starts, quickly press the clutch pedal again and control the throttle to prevent the engine from stalling, then slowly pull over to park. 2. Jump-start method: For this method, you first need another car with a charged battery nearby and a set of jumper cables. Bring the two cars close together, open the hood to locate the other car's battery, and connect the two batteries using the jumper cables. Follow the specific steps below carefully. If you're not confident, it's better to seek help from a professional or a specialized service.

Is Window Tinting Necessary for UV-Protected Car Glass?

If the glass already has UV protection/heat insulation properties, then solar film may not be necessary. The primary functions of solar film are UV protection and heat insulation. For safety considerations, applying a security film is advisable. Modern automotive films not only offer UV protection and heat insulation but also provide shatterproof capabilities. Correct usage methods for car window films: 1. Avoid rolling windows up/down for 3 days after installation, and refrain from washing the film or activating defogger lines for one week. If bubbles appear post-installation, visit the installation shop within 24 hours for treatment; prevent direct airflow from air conditioners onto the film to avoid intense thermal expansion/contraction. 2. High-quality automotive films feature one-way protection: externally impact-resistant while being easily breakable from inside. In emergencies, owners can strike the four corners of side windows with blunt objects, causing the entire glass pane to detach cleanly for safe escape.

Should BMW DTC be kept on normally?

It is recommended to keep the BMW DTC on at all times during normal driving. The system is usually enabled by default, and it is not advisable to turn off DTC. During daily driving, DTC can promptly identify the risk of vehicle skidding and stabilize the vehicle instantly to prevent loss of control. Here is some relevant information about DTC: 1. Definition: DTC refers to the Dynamic Traction Control system, which is a sub-function of BMW's proud DSC (Dynamic Stability Control) system. It allows for a certain degree of wheel slip within specific limits. 2. Function: When driving on icy, rainy, or snowy roads, vehicles are prone to skidding. The DTC button can be used to control and prevent tire slippage. If the DTC button light is on, it indicates the system is off. If accidentally turned off, pressing the DTC button on the center console once will enable it. In DTC mode, a certain degree of rear wheel slip is allowed.
