Press the left arrow button on the multifunction steering wheel repeatedly to enter the setting mode. Release the button when the setup option appears on the instrument cluster menu. After entering the setup interface by clicking the right steering wheel button, select "Settings", then choose the "Mirrors" tab and enable the "Auto-Folding" option.

I recently encountered this issue while personalizing my car settings, and setting the auto-folding mirrors is actually quite straightforward. After starting the car, go to the central control screen and find the menu button, then navigate to the settings section and select vehicle settings or comfort features. There, you’ll find the mirror options—just toggle the auto-folding switch. It works intelligently: the mirrors fold automatically when you lock the car and unfold when you start it. It’s best to set this while the car is parked to avoid distracting you while driving. This feature is especially handy for BMWs in city parking, particularly in narrow alleys to prevent mirror scrapes. If the screen icons seem confusing, check the owner’s manual for detailed instructions in the relevant chapter. If all else fails, visit the dealership and let them assist—it’s really simple. Make it a habit to regularly check these settings to ensure everything works as intended.

What are the effects of a dirty car throttle on the vehicle?

The effects of a dirty car throttle on the vehicle: 1. Difficulty starting or failure to start; 2. Abnormal idle conditions, such as unstable idle speed or fluctuating idle (too high or too low); 3. Weak acceleration or inability to speed up, such as throttle sticking; 4. Failure to meet emission standards; 5. Abnormalities like jerking or surging; 6. Obstruction when accelerating, such as throttle body sticking or idle valve flipping obstruction. Therefore, it is necessary to clean the throttle regularly. When cleaning the throttle, it does not need to be disassembled, but the intake sealing parts must be thoroughly cleaned. The idle motor must be removed to be cleaned properly. It is important to note that after cleaning the throttle, the throttle opening must be reset. Otherwise, the car's computer will still remember the opening when there was carbon buildup, and if not reset, the engine may experience unstable idle speed or excessively high RPM.

Why are used cars in Huangjiang so cheap?

Huangjiang used cars are cheap for the following reasons: 1. Related to channels: Huangjiang used cars are generally legally declared from Hong Kong to Vietnam or Myanmar. There are private docks at the waterway junction between Vietnam and Guangxi. These vehicles then pass through Vietnam and enter Guangxi via small cargo ships, before being driven into China through unmonitored docks or border mountainous areas, or transported into China using box trucks. 2. Low prices: During transportation, it's equivalent to buying insurance for the vehicles. 3. No taxes paid: There is a significant price difference for these vehicles, with prices being less than half of regular vehicles. This has led some car owners to shift their attention to Huangjiang's smuggled vehicles. No taxes are paid. These vehicles have not officially entered China through customs, have not undergone commodity inspection, and do not carry the 3C certification mark.

How many kilometers should tires be replaced after driving?

Tires should be replaced every 60,000 to 100,000 kilometers. During daily use, it is necessary to regularly inspect the car's tires. If abnormal wear or other issues are found, they should be replaced promptly to avoid affecting driving safety due to tire abnormalities. Car tire replacement standards: 1. When the tread wear approaches the wear indicator. Car tires have wear indicators on the tread. When the tire wear reaches a certain level, the tire should be replaced in time; 2. While driving, car tires may be punctured by foreign objects or damaged when hitting curbs. If cracks or bulges appear on the tire, they should be inspected immediately. If not addressed promptly, it may lead to a tire blowout, seriously affecting driving safety; 3. When the tire reaches its service life. Tires are rubber products and will age over time. The main signs of tire aging are surface hardening, loss of elasticity, and increased risk of blowouts. Therefore, tires that have reached their service life should be replaced promptly.

How to Judge the Distance of the Car Front When Driving?

Methods to judge the distance of the car front when driving: If there is a car ahead, when you see the front of your vehicle approaching the lower edge of the front car's bumper in the driver's compartment, it means the front of your car is about two meters away from the front car; if you see the upper edge of the front car's bumper, it means the front of your car is 0.5 meters away from the front car. If the vehicle you are driving is an SUV, the same two reference points apply. Seeing the lower edge of the bumper from the driver's compartment indicates the front of the car is 1.2 meters away from the front car, while seeing the upper edge means the front of the car is 0.3 meters away. To judge the distance of the wheels, if the driver sees the road surface coincide with the protruding point of the right wiper blade inside the car, it means the tire is pressing the line.
