You can check whether the GPS option in the car's computer is checked, or try updating the BMW ConnectedDrive service again. If the issue persists, you can call BMW customer service or seek professional help from a 4S store. Here’s an introduction to BMW ConnectedDrive: 1. BMW ConnectedDrive Features: BMW ConnectedDrive is available for BMW models produced in 2014 and later. Models produced before 2014 can use some compatible functions and services. In short, models equipped with iDrive4 and later support ConnectedDrive. BMW ConnectedDrive integrates the owner's phone with the BMW, acting like a personal assistant that understands the owner better and enhances driving pleasure. BMW ConnectedDrive offers features such as trip reminders, off-vehicle navigation, route optimization, remote control, road/breakdown assistance, and traffic violation queries. 2. BMW ConnectedDrive Activation and Approval: It takes about two weeks for activation. Typically, the salesperson will assist with the application when purchasing the car, and it can be used after delivery. 3. Updates After Approval: Once the updates are completed, BMW ConnectedDrive can be used.

What to Do When the Car Battery Runs Out of Power?

You can use the jump-start method to solve the problem, or you can try the push-start method. There are three maintenance methods for car batteries: 1. Clean the exterior: Use a damp cloth to wipe the exterior of the battery, removing dust, oil stains, and white powder from the panel and terminals that may cause leakage. Regular cleaning prevents the accumulation of white acidic corrosion powder on the terminals and extends the battery's lifespan. 2. Check the water level: Open the battery's water-filling cap and check if the water level is within the normal range. If the level is below the lower mark, you must add distilled water. Filtered tap water can be used in emergencies, but do not overfill—the standard is to fill to the midpoint between the upper and lower marks. 3. Check the battery charging status: If using a multimeter, measure the voltage after starting the engine. It should exceed 13V to be considered normal. If the charging voltage is too low, consult a professional to inspect the charging system.

How much does the Ford Edge weigh?

Ford Edge body weight is 1850-2188 kg, here is the relevant information: Design concept: The Ford Edge is a pure American-blooded SUV, with a body design that exudes typical American style, full and rounded with a sense of power. The robust posture of the Ford Edge gives it an imposing urban masculinity. The tall body and wheel design are optimized for common highway bumps and curb obstacles, while the Edge's thick bumper and large headlights give it the imposing presence of a large SUV. Exterior design: The front grille design is very exaggerated, with a large chrome grille that is not common, and this seems to be the most obvious signature of the Edge's exterior, giving it more technological appeal. The headlights have a relatively narrow and elongated shape, with the brow using the same chrome trim as the grille. The rear design is not as flamboyant as the front, looking more like the tail of a hatchback.

What to Do If Car Keys Are Locked Inside the Car?

There are three solutions: 1. Spare Key Generally, cars now come with two keys, one for regular use and the other as a spare. If the primary key is lost, the spare key can be used. Therefore, it is crucial to remember that the spare key should never be left inside the car but stored in a safe place at home. 2. Professional Locksmith If the car is far from the spare key or the spare key is also missing, contacting a professional locksmith to unlock the car is an option. Usually, relevant identification documents such as an ID card or vehicle registration certificate are required to prove identity. 3. 4S Shop Every car has a built-in anti-theft code. By providing the vehicle registration certificate and personal identification to the 4S shop, they can retrieve the anti-theft code and configure a new key. Additionally, they can erase the data of the lost key, rendering it invalid for starting the car (though it may still unlock the doors). For enhanced security, the 4S shop may also recommend replacing all the locks in the car.

What does 91W on a car tire mean?

91W tires refer to tires that can bear a load of 615kg and support a maximum speed of 270km/h. The following is about the tire speed rating codes: According to the different maximum speeds they can support, tire speed ratings can be divided into different grades from A to Z, with grade A further subdivided into eight different levels from A1 to A8. Generally speaking, the further back the letter representing the tire speed rating is, the better the tire performance. Common speed ratings mainly range from Q (160km/h) to Y (300km/h), and tires with different speed ratings have different applicable ranges: 1. Q-T grade tires (maximum speed 160-190km/h) are suitable for small and compact cars. 2. U-V grade tires (maximum speed 200-240km/h) are suitable for mid-to-high-end cars. 3. W-Z grade tires (maximum speed 240-300km/h) have better performance and are therefore more commonly used in large luxury cars and supercars.

Where are the A-pillar and B-pillar located in a car?

The A-pillar of a car is located between the front windshield and the driver's side window; the B-pillar is between the driver's side window and the rear side window. The functions of the A and B pillars in a car are as follows: 1. A-pillar: It must withstand and disperse the impact force caused by a frontal collision. If the A-pillar is designed to be particularly thick, it will greatly increase the A-pillar blind spot for the driver, obstructing part of the turning view, especially during left turns. Therefore, for the A-pillar, it should be as small as possible while meeting sufficient strength requirements to ensure adequate visibility for the driver. 2. B-pillar: It mainly withstands side impacts. Since there is not enough crumple zone on the side of the car body, sufficient strength and stiffness of the B-pillar are crucial factors in protecting the driver's safety during a side collision.
