BMW 5 Series fuse box is located inside the glove compartment on the passenger side. After opening the glove box, remove the interior trim panel to access the fuse box. There is also another fuse box on the side of the trunk. Below is relevant information about BMW 5 Series fuses: 1. International standard color coding for BMW 5 Series blade fuses: 2A grey, 3A purple, 4A pink, 5A orange, 7.5A brown, 10A red, 15A blue, 20A yellow, 25A clear, 30A green, and 40A dark orange. The different colors allow for clear identification of various ampere ratings. 2. The conductor inside blade fuses is made of metal similar to solder, which has a lower melting point than regular wire. The conductor size is precisely calibrated so that it generates enough heat to melt and break the circuit when reaching rated current. Fuses have two important parameters: working voltage and rated current. Owners should select fuses based on the circuit's voltage and current when purchasing or replacing them.

What Causes the Oil Light to Illuminate When There is Sufficient Engine Oil?

The reasons for the oil light illuminating when there is sufficient engine oil are: 1. Clogged oil passages; 2. Low oil viscosity; 3. Issues with the oil pump; 4. Problems with the oil sensor; 5. Electromagnetic interference. The functions of engine oil include: 1. Lubrication and friction reduction; 2. Assisting in cooling and temperature reduction; 3. Sealing and preventing leaks; 4. Rust and corrosion prevention; 5. Shock absorption and cushioning. The steps for changing engine oil are: 1. Lift the vehicle, remove the undercarriage shield, and place a container of about 10 liters beneath the oil drain plug; 2. Unscrew the oil drain plug, use an air gun to blow for two minutes at the oil filler port, then tighten the drain plug after draining and wipe it with a tissue to check for leaks; 3. Reinstall the undercarriage shield, lower the vehicle, and use a funnel to add oil through the filler port.

What are the symptoms of engine blow-by?

The symptoms of engine blow-by are: 1. Decreased engine power; 2. Deterioration of engine oil; 3. Engine failure to start, with blow-by at the valve cover and white smoke emitting from the crankcase oil filler port. The causes of engine blow-by include: 1. Piston rings being misaligned, broken, or worn out, leading to ineffective operation and poor cylinder sealing; 2. Excessive clearance in piston ring gaps, side gaps, or back gaps; 3. Improper installation of the air filter or a damaged filter element, causing large amounts of dust and impurities to be drawn into the cylinder and resulting in wear; 4. Cylinder head bolts not tightened to standard torque, leading to poor sealing of the cylinder gasket and gas escaping from the engine; 5. Poor sealing between the valves and valve seats; 6. Severe lack of coolant in the cooling system, causing a rapid rise in temperature, adhesion between the piston and piston rings or cylinder liner, and extensive scoring on the piston surface.

What is the size of the Lavida's front windshield?

The size of the Lavida's front windshield is 124 centimeters in length and 75 centimeters in height. The main types of automotive front windshields include laminated glass, tempered glass, zoned tempered glass, laminated tempered glass, and laminated zoned tempered glass. Notes on windshield repair: Do not wash the car and try to drive on flat roads within two days after replacing the glass. Before repairing the car glass, thoroughly remove all dirt from the windshield. Carefully selecting cleaning agents and related cleaning products is a good choice. Turn off the defrosting and heating function after 5-10 minutes of use, otherwise it may cause the windshield to crack. Repair cracks no longer than twenty centimeters, as the safety factor after repair is not as high as the original. After the repair, the effect may seem good, but after a while, the crack appears again: the most common reason is overheating. Heating the glass to 26--32°C is the most suitable temperature. Beyond this temperature, the glass will expand, squeezing out the resin. At that time, it may seem like the repair is successful, but in reality, part of the resin in the crack has overflowed. When the glass cools down, the crack will reappear.

What is the fuel tank capacity of the GS4?

The fuel tank capacity of the Trumpchi GS4 is 55 liters, as officially announced. Owners who have purchased the Trumpchi GS4 can also check this information on the vehicle's configuration sheet. The recommended fuel grade for the Trumpchi GS4 is 92 octane, with a fuel consumption of 6.8L per 100 kilometers. A full tank can provide a driving range of approximately 809 kilometers. During daily driving, it is essential to monitor the remaining fuel level in the tank. This is typically done by observing the fuel gauge inside the vehicle. Under normal circumstances, the fuel level will be accurately reflected on the gauge. The fuel gauge usually has 5 to 6 segments, and it is advisable to refuel when there are only 2 segments left to avoid running out of fuel midway. In actual refueling situations, the amount of fuel added might exceed the marked capacity. This is because the manufacturer's specified tank capacity is measured from the bottom of the tank to the safe fill level, and there is additional space from the safe fill level to the tank opening. This extra space is designed to accommodate fuel expansion due to temperature increases, preventing overflow. If fuel is filled up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual amount of fuel added may exceed the marked tank capacity.
