BMW M4 is suitable for fully synthetic engine oil with a viscosity of 40 or 60. Fully synthetic oil has a broader temperature range and longer service life. For the same oil film requirements, fully synthetic oil can achieve the desired performance with a lower viscosity. Fully synthetic engine oil offers better high and low-temperature performance and longer oil change intervals, making it suitable for more demanding driving conditions. The BMW M4 is a high-performance car from BMW, with dimensions of 4678mm in length, 1870mm in width, and 1398mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2812mm. The car features air intakes on the fenders, smoothly flared wheel arches for a dynamic look, and a muscular rear bumper with quad exhaust pipes that enhance its sporty appearance.

I recently drove a BMW M4, and its S58 engine is truly a high-revving master that demands meticulous maintenance. Using the wrong engine oil can easily lead to premature engine retirement. The best choice is full synthetic oil, with viscosities of 5W-30 or 0W-30 being perfect—ensuring quick cold starts and maintaining optimal performance at high temperatures without becoming sticky. These grades align well with BMW’s official LL-01 or LL-04 certifications. Trusted brands like Castrol EDGE or Liqui Moly are reliable options. I always check the oil level during changes because the M4’s powerful performance means slightly higher oil consumption; neglecting this could lead to carbon buildup or wear. To stay safe, stick to regular 5,000-kilometer oil changes. Remember, never compromise with conventional mineral oils—high-performance engines deserve proper care.

Why does the car alarm sound when passing through ETC?

Entering the ETC toll station and hearing the alarm sound may be due to excessive speed. Here are the detailed reasons for the alarm sounding when entering the ETC toll station: 1. Excessive speed: Generally, when passing through the ETC lane, the speed should be controlled within 20km/h to ensure the system can correctly sense and read the tag online, allowing the barrier to lift normally. If the speed is too fast, it may affect the recognition of vehicle information, leading to failure in identification and triggering the alarm. 2. Wrong entry: Additionally, the ETC lane is a dedicated lane. If a vehicle without ETC mistakenly enters the ETC lane, the alarm may sound. Moreover, the ETC lane follows the rule of one barrier, one pass, one vehicle. If this rule is not followed, and a vehicle forces its way through before the barrier resets after the preceding vehicle passes, the alarm will also be triggered. For ETC users, it must be one vehicle, one card, one device. Multiple vehicles cannot share one card or one electronic tag device. If the OBU does not match the card, passage will also be denied. 3. Precautions: When passing through the ETC lane, note that the ETC lane has height restrictions for vehicles and speed limit signs to control vehicle speed. It is necessary to slow down and pass carefully. If the driving speed exceeds 100% of the speed limit, it is likely that 12 points will be deducted from the driver's license according to the highway speeding regulations.

What Are the Dangers of a Cigarette Lighter Not Popping Out?

If it is not caused by a blown fuse, but rather by a loose or damaged retaining spring preventing the cigarette lighter from being pulled out, the lighter can still heat up normally and will remain in a heated state. This may cause the lighter's fuse to blow, and the lighter's wiring may overheat, eventually leading to charring and a short circuit. Here is some additional information: 1. Risk of fire: In severe cases, the car's cigarette lighter may catch fire, either due to the lighter's wiring or the lighter socket igniting. Since the cigarette lighter can reach high temperatures after heating, continuous heating can easily lead to a fire. 2.
