The water spray button is located on the steering wheel. There is a lever on the right side behind the steering wheel, which is the windshield washer switch for the wipers. By moving it back and forth, a short pull results in a short spray, and vice versa. The lever on the right side behind the steering wheel includes switches for both the front and rear windshield wipers and washers, all controllable via this lever. For example, pulling the wiper switch toward the steering wheel briefly will only spray water without activating the wipers. A longer pull will continuously spray water and activate the wipers at low speed. After releasing the switch, the wipers will automatically wipe three more times before returning to their original position. The front windshield wiper can be controlled by moving the lever up and down.

When I first started learning to drive, I couldn't figure out which button was for the windshield washer. Later, I discovered it's usually located at the end of the wiper stalk on the right side of the steering wheel, typically marked with a small button or switch. Pressing it activates the washer fluid to spray onto the windshield. The exact position might vary slightly between car models, but most vehicles follow this design. I remember my first attempt didn't work because the washer reservoir was empty—always check to ensure there's enough cleaning fluid. Regularly replacing the fluid and cleaning the nozzles prevents clogging, as dirty windshields severely impair visibility, which is extremely dangerous. Maintaining a clean windshield is crucial while driving, especially during rain, snow, or on dusty roads. Beginners should refer to their vehicle's user manual to familiarize themselves with their car's specific layout.

After driving for so many years, I've always found the windshield washer button very practical. It's usually the top button on the wiper stalk on the right side of the steering wheel. Pressing it instantly sprays water to clean the windshield. If the water flow is weak, the nozzle might be clogged, and I use a fine needle to clear the holes. For maintenance, I check the washer fluid reservoir level during every car wash, and add antifreeze in winter to prevent freezing. Windshield washing isn't just for cleanliness - when encountering bugs or mud on long trips, timely cleaning enhances driving safety. If the button malfunctions, it could be a faulty washer pump or blown fuse - get it fixed immediately without delay.

In my daily driving, I frequently use the windshield washer button located at the end of the wiper control stalk. A simple press activates the washer fluid, which is very convenient—keeping the windshield clean is crucial for driving safety. I always monitor the washer fluid level in the reservoir; plain water works fine, but a cleaning agent provides better results. If the button fails to function, there might be an issue with the washer system—check if the nozzles are properly aligned or clogged. Simple maintenance can extend its lifespan.

Can I take the Subject 1 test with an expired ID card?

A temporary ID card has the same validity as a formal ID card. Electronic ID cards cannot be used for the test. If you don't have an ID card, you can apply for a temporary one. According to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses," you can take the Subject 1 test twice on the same day. If you fail the first attempt, you can retake it for free. If you fail the second attempt, the Subject 1 test will be terminated, and you can only reschedule it after ten days. The Subject 1 test consists of 100 questions, including single-choice and true/false questions, each worth 1 point, totaling 100 points. If you answer 11 questions incorrectly, the system will automatically submit the test and end the exam. The Subject 1 test is computer-based and lasts 45 minutes. The content of the Subject 1 test includes: regulations on driving licenses and motor vehicle management; road traffic conditions and regulations; road traffic safety violations and penalties; regulations on road traffic accident handling; basic knowledge of motor vehicles; local regulations; knowledge of braking systems and safety devices for large and medium-sized passenger and freight vehicles; specialized knowledge for wheeled self-propelled machinery, trams, and trolleybuses. Notes for the Subject 1 test: Candidates should pay attention to their attire during the test. No slippers are allowed, and electronic devices and bags are prohibited in the examination room. Bring your ID card and queue to enter the waiting hall. Observe the precautions and procedures on the large screen, and store personal belongings in lockers before entering the examination room. In the examination room, the identity verification desk will assign a seat. After finding your seat, start the test. Ensure the camera is aimed at you and follow exam discipline. If you fail the first attempt, you can retake it the same day. If you fail again, you will need to pay and reschedule. After the test, queue to collect your score sheet and sign it. Failure to sign will render the test invalid. There is no limit to the number of times you can reschedule the Subject 1 test. Each subject can be taken once, and if you fail, you can retake it once. If you do not take the retest or fail the retest, the test will be terminated, and you must reschedule. For Subject 2 and Subject 3, there are only five attempts. Subject 2 and Subject 3 tests can be rescheduled after ten days. If you fail the Subject 3 safe driving knowledge test, the passed road driving skills test results remain valid. There are three subjects in the driving test: Subject 1, Subject 2, and Subject 3. Subject 1 refers to the test on road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge. Subject 2 refers to the field driving skills test. Subject 3 is divided into two parts: road driving skills and safe driving knowledge. The safe driving knowledge test is conducted after Subject 3, so it is commonly referred to as Subject 4. However, there is no official term "Subject 4" in the actual regulations (i.e., the Ministry of Public Security Order No. 123). The test duration is 45 minutes.

What are the dimensions of the reverse parking diagram?

The standard dimensions for a reverse parking garage are as follows: For small cars, the garage length is 5.25 meters and the width is 2.3 meters. For large vehicles, the dimensions are 16 meters in length and 6.83 meters in width. The evaluation criteria for reverse parking: failure to follow the prescribed route or sequence results in disqualification; the vehicle body crossing the line results in disqualification; failure to fully enter the garage results in disqualification; stopping midway results in disqualification; exceeding 4 minutes results in disqualification. Reverse parking mnemonic: Reversing in and out isn't hard, fasten the belt, shift gear, and flash the left light. Press the clutch and release the handbrake, slowly lift the clutch to start gently. Watch the right line to adjust the car body, align the left mirror's vertical gap with the right line. Stop when the front line aligns with the shoulder, shift to reverse gear and release the clutch. When the left mirror covers the corner of the horizontal line, turn the steering wheel fully to the right. Watch the left mirror for the garage line, turn back one circle at a 30-degree angle, and when the car is parallel to the line, straighten the steering wheel with two full turns. When the left mirror covers the front corner of the garage, press the clutch and brake. Shift to first gear to exit, turn the steering wheel fully to the left when the car head touches the line. Stop when the car head covers the line, keep the steering wheel steady and reverse. Watch the right mirror for the garage line, turn back one circle at a 30-degree angle, and when the car is parallel to the line, straighten the steering wheel with two full turns. When the left mirror covers the front corner of the garage, press the clutch and brake. Shift to first gear to exit, turn the steering wheel fully to the right when the car head touches the line. Stop when the car head covers the line, adjust the car body skillfully. The new garage has no poles to look at, only ground markings, and the garage length is much shorter than the current one, just enough to park a car completely. The process is to reverse in from the right, then drive out and turn to the left, then reverse back in, and finally drive out to return to the starting point. This process is very simple, without the current exam's step of moving the car within the garage.

What Causes Body Vibration When Starting a BMW?

Reasons for vehicle vibration after starting include: insufficient engine power; vibration occurs when the clutch is partially engaged; loose connections between the transmission and chassis; uneven contact between the clutch pressure plate and friction disc; improper coordination between throttle and clutch; dirty throttle body or excessive carbon buildup on fuel injectors; aging engine mounts. Specific causes of body vibration during acceleration are as follows: High engine temperature: When engine temperature is too high, the ECU controls the fuel injection system to inject more fuel, resulting in a richer air-fuel mixture. Sudden acceleration under these conditions can cause engine vibration. Poor tire grip: Vibration may also occur during sudden acceleration due to inadequate tire traction.
