The BMW X1 utilizes an electronic system to monitor engine oil levels, which provides the driver with information about the oil condition and quantity. Owners can schedule regular maintenance at a 4S dealership based on the system's reminder intervals or dealer recommendations. Below is relevant information about BMW's CBS (Condition Based Service) system: 1. BMW's current post-sales maintenance cycle standards differ from other brands, as there is no fixed replacement interval. Official recommendations are based entirely on alerts from the vehicle's CBS system (integrated into the ConnectedDrive system). 2. The CBS system determines maintenance intervals by analyzing actual vehicle wear conditions (most initial service intervals in CBS are 10,000-12,000 km, though this may vary depending on driving conditions). Owners simply need to visit a dealership for inspection when prompted by the in-vehicle CBS system.

What causes the abnormal noise when the AC button is turned on?

The reasons for abnormal noise when the AC button is turned on are as follows: 1. Compressor: The metal friction sound produced when the compressor's electromagnetic clutch engages. The fault is usually due to a lack of lubricating refrigerant oil inside the compressor. When refrigerant oil is insufficient, the internal piston of the compressor does not receive adequate lubrication, resulting in metal friction sounds under the high pressure of the refrigerant. Another scenario is a fault with the electromagnetic clutch itself, where a damaged internal bearing causes abnormal noise. In this case, the compressor must be replaced. 2. Belt noise: The air conditioning belt may produce abnormal noise when subjected to excessive force. This situation occurs because the air conditioning system pressure rapidly increases when the AC is turned on.

What does 'sport' mean in Chinese on a car?

In Chinese, 'sport' on a car means 'sports mode'. When the button is pressed to activate sports mode, the vehicle achieves stronger power output by increasing fuel injection and lowering the shift timing. Delayed upshifts allow the vehicle to gain greater acceleration, resulting in faster speed increases. The functions of sports mode include: 1. Experiencing driving pleasure; 2. Providing a strong push force during high-speed driving, overtaking, or climbing hills; 3. Increasing the engine shift speed to enhance power performance. It is recommended to use the car's sports mode appropriately and regularly, as it helps remove carbon deposits inside the engine, improves fuel economy, and extends the engine's lifespan.

What is the normal position for antifreeze?

The antifreeze reservoir has markings, including an upper limit and a lower limit indicated by letters. As long as the antifreeze level is within this range, it is acceptable. Here is some related information: 1. Antifreeze refers to antifreeze coolant, which is used to cool the engine and has functions such as preventing freezing, scaling, and corrosion. Windshield washer fluid is a cleaning agent for washing the windshield, with the main purpose of cleaning the glass. To prevent the windshield washer reservoir from freezing in winter, there is also antifreeze windshield washer fluid. 2. The full name of antifreeze should be antifreeze coolant, meaning it is a coolant with antifreeze properties.
