The cigarette lighter fuse in the BMW 5 Series is located at the rear right side of the trunk. Simply open it to locate the fuse. When replacing, refer to the manual to identify the amperage of the cigarette lighter fuse. It's advisable to keep a few spare fuses in the car for quick self-replacement. However, never attempt to increase the fuse's amperage to prevent burnout—each fuse's amperage is designed based on safety considerations. The BMW 5 Series continues the brand's signature design language, featuring the iconic double-kidney grille at the front, now with a darkened finish. Although the 2019 BMW 5 Series is a new-generation model, its appearance retains many similarities to previous versions, with notable updates including a flatter intelligent air flap control grille and sleeker LED headlights with an 'open-angle' design. The M Sport package adds bold aerodynamic components and aggressive wheel designs, distinguishing its styling from other variants.

Will points be deducted for not displaying the insurance decal?

Points will be deducted for not displaying the insurance decal. According to the Road Traffic Safety Law, motor vehicles driven on roads must display inspection qualification marks and insurance decals. Failure to carry the insurance decal will result in a 1-point deduction. Whether the insurance decal needs to be displayed depends on whether the local area has implemented an electronic policy system. If not, it still needs to be displayed. In 2019, regions like Shanghai, Shenzhen, and Shandong abolished the requirement to display paper decals and implemented an electronic policy system. In these areas, vehicle owners are not required to display the compulsory insurance decal on the windshield. In case of an accident, even without carrying the compulsory insurance policy, it is not an issue as the traffic police department can check the details through their backend system.

What are the reasons for inaccurate car fuel gauge?

There are two main reasons for an inaccurate fuel gauge: 1. Poor reliability or damage to the fuel level sensor; 2. Issues with the fuel gauge itself. If the fuel gauge needle descends at inconsistent rates, it might be a design characteristic - some vehicle models' fuel gauges aren't designed with linear progression, where slower movement in the first half and faster movement in the second half is actually normal. Symptoms of an inaccurate fuel gauge: 1. The needle moves irregularly fast and slow, commonly observed as slower movement in the first half of the gauge followed by rapid descent after the midpoint; 2. Sudden drop to zero - since the gauge indication relies on the fuel level sensor, this symptom indicates potential sensor malfunction; 3. Unusual rise in fuel gauge readings.
