The washer motor fuse in a BMW 3 Series is located inside the glove compartment on the passenger side. Specific location: After opening the glove compartment, remove the interior trim panel to reveal the fuse box. There is also another fuse box on the side of the trunk. Fuse replacement method: Before locating the fuse box, for safety reasons, please turn off the engine and power. Find the corresponding location of the fuse box and carefully pry open the cover using a screwdriver or other tool. On the inside of the cover, you can find the corresponding component fuse based on the information. Then use a test light to check the fuse. When the test light does not illuminate, the fuse is damaged. When replacing with a new fuse, ensure that the current and other parameters match those of the original fuse. After replacement, check whether the corresponding component is functioning properly. If not, promptly take it to a repair shop for inspection.

What are Full-Time 4WD and On-Demand 4WD?

Full-Time 4WD and On-Demand 4WD are described in detail as follows: Full-Time 4WD: Full-Time 4WD means that the vehicle is driven by all four wheels independently at all times. It achieves this through a flexibly connected central differential, which then distributes the driving force to all four tires via independent front and rear axle differentials. Unlike purely mechanical differential locks, the differential in Full-Time 4WD can be either a viscous coupling or a multi-plate clutch type, but both allow for a speed difference between the front and rear wheels, as well as between the left and right wheels. Whether a vehicle has Full-Time 4WD entirely depends on the construction of the transfer case. As the core component that manages different driving states of the vehicle, the transfer case largely determines the overall performance of the vehicle. On-Demand 4WD: On-Demand 4WD refers to a drivetrain that switches to four-wheel drive only when necessary, while remaining in two-wheel drive under other conditions. The system automatically switches between two-wheel drive and four-wheel drive modes based on the driving conditions, without requiring manual intervention. On-Demand 4WD differs from Part-Time 4WD, which requires manual switching between two-wheel and four-wheel drive, and Full-Time 4WD, which operates in four-wheel drive under all conditions.

Can someone else go for the vehicle inspection on my behalf?

Vehicle annual inspection can be conducted without the owner's presence, but the proxy must provide a copy of their ID card as well as the owner's ID card and its copy when handling the procedure at relevant locations. Vehicles that fail the annual inspection must be repaired within a specified time limit. If they still fail after the deadline, the vehicle management office will confiscate their license plates and prohibit further driving. Vehicles that do not undergo the annual inspection without reason or fail the inspection are not allowed to drive on the road or transfer ownership. Vehicle annual inspection is conducted for vehicles that have already obtained official license plates and registration certificates, following the "Technical Conditions for Motor Vehicle Operation Safety." Its purpose is to check the main technical conditions of the vehicle and urge owners to strengthen vehicle maintenance and care. According to the relevant provisions of the "Regulations for the Implementation of the Road Traffic Safety Law," small and micro non-operating passenger vehicles must be inspected once every two years within six years; once a year after exceeding six years; and once every six months after exceeding 15 years. Materials required for annual inspection are as follows: "Motor Vehicle Inspection Mark Application Form" (this does not need to be brought, as it is provided on-site for direct filling); motor vehicle registration certificate; compulsory traffic insurance policy; vehicle and vessel tax payment or tax exemption certificate; owner's ID card. If handled by a proxy, the proxy must bring their own ID card.

Why is the air conditioning in the Honda 10th-generation Civic not cooling properly?

If the air conditioning in the Honda 10th-generation Civic is not cooling properly, it may require a refrigerant replacement, or there could be excessive dirt on the condenser surface. Refrigerant needs to be replaced periodically: The refrigerant used in car air conditioning systems is typically r134a, which requires periodic replacement. If not replaced for an extended period, it can affect the cooling efficiency and speed of the air conditioning system. Configuration: The front and rear turn signal covers of the Honda 10th-generation Civic have been changed to transparent, and the fog lights have also been modified. Chrome door handles and side anti-scratch strips have been added, and the wheel design has been updated. High-end models also feature triangular turn signals on the side mirrors, giving a sharper and more dynamic appearance. The rear of the car has been enhanced with chrome trim, and three new color options—Crystal Purple, Titanium Silver, and Crystal Black—have been introduced for the body.

What is Tesla?

Tesla is an American electric vehicle and clean energy company that manufactures and sells electric cars, solar panels, and energy storage systems. Headquartered in Palo Alto, California, the company was founded on July 1, 2003, by Martin Eberhard and Marc Tarpenning, who named it "Tesla Motors" in honor of the physicist Nikola Tesla. Elon Musk joined the company in 2004 and led its Series A funding round. Here is some relevant information: Development History: Tesla's initial new energy vehicle startup team mainly came from Silicon Valley, adopting an IT philosophy to build cars rather than following the traditional approach of Detroit-based automakers. As a result, Tesla's venture into electric vehicles is often seen as a story of a Silicon Valley upstart challenging the Detroit giants. Logo Culture: On February 5, 2017, foreign media (VentureBeat) reported that for automakers, the car logo is as important as the car itself. Logo design thus becomes a crucial task. Tesla's T-shaped logo, which has gained widespread recognition in recent years, is not only the initials of inventor Nikola Tesla's name but also carries deeper meanings. Tesla CEO Elon Musk explained on his Twitter that this stylized "T" is also a hint at the company's products, stating that the T logo represents the cross-section of an electric motor.

Interior: The interior design retains the basic layout of the overseas version. The high-end models feature a 12.1-inch central control screen and a PM2.5 filtration system specifically for Chinese consumers. Powertrain: It is equipped with the current model's 1.2T engine, with a maximum power of 116 horsepower (85kW), meeting the China VI emission standards. The transmission is matched with a CVT gearbox. The hybrid version's 1.8L engine has a maximum power of 95 horsepower and a peak torque of 142 N·m, while the electric motor has a maximum power of 53kW and a peak torque of 163 N·m. The combined system power is 122 horsepower, with a claimed fuel consumption of 4L/100km.

Where is the USB port in the Superb?

The Superb does not have a USB port, but it does have an SD card slot. Generally, the USB ports in cars serve two functions: one is to output power for charging mobile phones, and the other is for playing music from a USB drive. However, some center console designs do not include the charging function, in which case you can only purchase a cigarette lighter car charger. Appearance: The 2013 Superb adopted more of the family design style, with a sharper-looking grille, showcasing the new brand logo. The lower grille and fog lights were completely redesigned, and LED daytime running lights were added. Additionally, the taillight design was completely changed, while the interior largely followed the design of the current model. Interior: Apart from changes in accessories, the re-optimization of storage space and the upgrade of the human-machine system are expected to enhance the riding experience further. Notably, the new Superb provides a 220V power supply for rear passengers, offering great convenience. Powertrain: The 2013 domestic Superb was equipped with three powertrains: 1.4T, 1.8T, and 2.0T. The facelifted Superb is almost certain to retain this engine lineup. However, the 2.0T engine (EA888) changed its cylinder block material from cast iron to all-aluminum, so its parameters will differ from the current model.
