The air filter for the BMW 320 is located inside the glove compartment on the passenger side. Below are the detailed steps for replacing the car's air filter: 1. Remove the contact cover on the outer side of the right foot: Use a T20 screwdriver to unscrew the central screw on the cover plate, then push the upper and lower edges of the plate towards the front of the car with a horizontal forward force. 2. Remove the cover plate below the steering wheel: This cover is made of black plastic and is located above the foot pedals and below the steering wheel shaft. It is an irregularly shaped, horizontally placed cover. Near the driver's side edge, there are two large circular fasteners; rotate them 180 degrees to release. Loosen the edges of this plate and remove it entirely. 3. Open the side cover of the air filter: There is a screw in the center of the air filter cover; unscrew it with a T20 screwdriver. After removing the screw, gently pry up the small latch below the cover and pull outward to open the cover. 4. Replace the air filter: Pull the old filter out horizontally. Note that the air filter has a specific direction—ensure it is not installed backward.

Why is it difficult to start a motorcycle in winter?

The reasons why motorcycles are difficult to start in winter: 1. The low temperature causes the fuel temperature to drop significantly, making it hard for gasoline to vaporize in the cold carburetor. This results in a lean air-fuel mixture with insufficient gasoline, making the engine difficult to start; 2. The viscosity of lubricating oil increases, reducing its fluidity. When using the same electrical or manual force to start the engine, the rotation speed of the crankshaft and connecting rod mechanism decreases, leading to insufficient pressure in the cylinder and making it harder to start; 3. For motorcycles with battery ignition, the viscosity of the electrolyte in the battery increases in winter, reducing its fluidity and diffusibility. This prevents the chemical reaction from completing fully, resulting in insufficient power and affecting the starting process.

What symptoms will occur when the engine is low on oil?

Engine symptoms when low on oil: 1. Poor lubrication in splash lubrication areas inside the engine; 2. When oil pressure drops too low due to insufficient oil, it will cause poor lubrication on the engine's friction surfaces, leading to abnormal vibrations, reduced power, and in severe cases, may even cause engine bearing seizure. The specific manifestation is abnormal engine vibrations until stalling, after which the engine cannot be restarted; 3. When oil pressure drops too low due to insufficient oil, it can also cause abnormal operation of the engine's variable timing solenoid valve, resulting in inability to precisely control the engine's intake and exhaust valves, leading to operational abnormalities, reduced power, and increased fuel consumption.
