I recently encountered the issue of BMW ConnectedDrive not working. At first, I thought it was a network problem because my 4G signal was poor and prone to disconnections. Later, I realized the app might have bugs or need an update; server maintenance on BMW's side could also cause service interruptions. I recommend restarting your phone and checking mobile data signal strength first, then switching to Wi-Fi to try. Another common reason is expired account login—simply log out and log back in. The impact is quite significant as I'm used to remotely starting the engine for preheating or locking the car, but now I have to carry the physical key as a backup. This issue is particularly annoying during high-speed travel, so I've developed a habit of regularly updating the app to avoid scrambling when problems arise.

Can You Change a Tire on the Highway?

It is possible to change a tire on the highway. However, it is not recommended to do it yourself. If you absolutely must change a tire, ensure it is done under safe conditions and does not obstruct other vehicles. Proper warning measures must be taken to avoid secondary accidents. Additionally, the driver should know how to change a spare tire correctly, as improper tire changes on the highway can result in fines and penalties. Precautions after a tire blowout on the highway: 1. When driving on the highway, whether it's a front or rear tire blowout, the driver's first priority is to maintain control of the steering wheel and turn on the hazard lights. 2. If a vehicle breaks down on the highway, the warning triangle should be placed at least 150 meters behind the vehicle in the direction of oncoming traffic. All passengers should quickly move to the right shoulder or emergency lane and call for assistance immediately.

What to Do When Car AC Has Normal High Pressure but High Low Pressure?

The issue is likely caused by a damaged or faulty air conditioning expansion valve in the AC components, and it needs to be repaired at a 4S shop. Here is relevant information: 1. Precautions for removal: Removing the AC expansion valve is very troublesome. After repair or replacement, it is necessary to check whether the compressor refrigerant is insufficient. When replacing the AC expansion valve, there will be some leakage of the compressor refrigerant. If not checked in time, it may affect the compressor's operation. 2. Car air conditioning: The air conditioning device used in motor vehicles is the car's AC, which can adjust the temperature inside the vehicle cabin to a suitable state, providing a comfortable environment for passengers, reducing travel fatigue, and creating good working conditions for the driver.

What is the difference between 3.0-10 and 3.5-10?

The difference between 3.0-10 and 3.5-10 lies in their dimensions and fuel consumption. Different tire diameters: 3.50-10: Diameter is 3.5 inches, which is 8.89 cm. 3.0-10: Diameter is 13 cm. Different tire thicknesses: 3.50-10: Thickness is also 8.89 cm. 3.0-10: Thickness is also 7.8 cm. Different fuel consumption: The 3.5-10 tires will have higher fuel consumption compared to the 3.0-10 tires. However, the advantage of switching to 3.5-10 tires is more reliable braking performance, better traction for various road conditions, and improved overall stability of the vehicle. Therefore, if the wheel hub model supports it and there is a need for replacement, it is recommended to switch to 3.5-10 tires.

(2) Unstable engine idle speed or no idle speed. (3) Difficulty in engine starting. (4) Insufficient engine power, poor acceleration performance, and unstable operation. 2. Causes: If the throttle position sensor is damaged, it will cause engine shaking and unstable idle speed. Because the throttle position sensor detects the signal of throttle opening. The engine computer adjusts the fuel injection amount and ignition timing based on the throttle opening. If the throttle sensor is faulty, the engine computer cannot correctly receive the throttle opening signal, resulting in the inability to accurately adjust the fuel injection amount and ignition timing. In severe cases, the engine may not start if the throttle is faulty.

How Long After Waxing Should a Car Be Cleaned?

Car wax can be cleaned off about a week after application. The benefits of car waxing: Prevents aging of the car's paint, maintains a shiny and fresh paint surface, protects against UV rays and acid rain, effectively fills in minor scratches on the paint, reduces friction static between the car body and air to prevent dust accumulation, and provides better protection for the car's paint. Therefore, it is also important to choose a suitable car wax product that can better withstand the varying temperatures of different seasons and their impact on the car's paint. Steps for car waxing: Rinse the car body with clean water; use a soft item to wipe the car to remove impurities and then let it dry; apply the wax evenly in a circular motion along straight lines from front to back of the car using a waxing sponge; avoid applying the wax too thickly during the process and refrain from using sharp objects to scrape it.
