It might be due to Bluetooth issues. Here is some relevant information about BMW: Introduction: BMW, fully known in Chinese as Bavarian Motor Works Co., Ltd., is a German automobile brand. BMW's vehicle series include the i, X, Z, and pure numeric models, along with series such as 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and the M series, which are enhancements based on these series. Expansion: The BMW Group owns three brands: BMW, MINI, and Rolls-Royce. These brands cover the high-end segment of the market from small cars to top-tier luxury sedans, making the BMW Group the only manufacturer in the world exclusively focused on luxury cars and motorcycles.

I've experienced this situation before. Last time when I was driving my old BMW, CarPlay was clearly connected but nothing showed up on the screen. There could be several reasons: First is software issues - BMW's iDrive system sometimes develops bugs after updates and requires manual restarting; Second is the phone side - if your iPhone system isn't updated to the latest iOS version, CarPlay won't be compatible; Then there's hardware aspects - if you've used cable connection, it might be dirty or loose USB ports, or the cable itself might be aged with poor contact. For wireless CarPlay, interference with Bluetooth or Wi-Fi signals can also cause this problem. My suggestion is to first try restarting both your phone and the car's system by holding the power button for a few seconds. If that doesn't work, take it to a BMW specialist shop to check the system settings. Never troubleshoot while driving - safety comes first.

Why does the car steering wheel suddenly become heavy?

Reasons for a heavy steering wheel: 1. Dirty power steering fluid. This situation is similar to how dirty engine oil affects engine power and performance. Dirty power steering fluid can cause the steering wheel to become increasingly heavy, and a lack of power steering fluid can also make the steering wheel feel heavier. 2. If it is an electric power steering system, check whether the fuse is blown, and whether there is an open circuit or a short to ground in the wiring. Repeatedly turning the steering wheel while stationary or at low speeds places a heavy load on the power steering system, which can easily cause the steering gear to overheat and enter a protective mode, resulting in heavy steering. It will return to normal after cooling down, which is a normal phenomenon.

How to Check the Production Date of Car Glass When Buying a Car?

Methods to check the production date of car glass: 1. The production date of car glass is usually marked in the lower right corner of the window or below the trademark. It is presented in the form of a single number. The markings on the glass can provide information about the brand, structure, specifications, and production date of the glass. 2. In the production date of the glass, the number represents the year. The black dots on the left side of the number represent the production month. Black dots on the left indicate the first half of the year, while those on the right indicate the second half. 3. If the black dots are on the left, subtract the number of dots from 7 to determine the production month. If the black dots are on the right, subtract the number of dots from 13.

How to Distinguish Between China IV and China V Standards?

Methods to distinguish between China IV and China V standards are as follows: 1. For vehicles that have already obtained the environmental protection inspection compliance label, the emission standard can be checked on the original or duplicate copy of the label. Alternatively, you can log in to the Motor Vehicle Environmental Protection Website and enter the vehicle model number and engine model in the New Vehicle Compliance Query System. 2. According to the national plan, the China VI emission standard is scheduled to be implemented on July 1, 2020, just three years after the full implementation of the China V standard. In key regions such as the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei area and its surrounding regions, the Yangtze River Delta, the Fenwei Plain, the Pearl River Delta, and the Chengdu-Chongqing region, the China VI standard will be implemented ahead of schedule. 3. The China VI standard raises the threshold by nearly 50% compared to the current China V standard and is slightly stricter than the current international strictest emission limit—the Euro VI standard. Once officially implemented, the China VI standard will become the world's most stringent motor vehicle emission standard.

What Are the Hazards of Oil Emulsification to the Engine?

The Hazards of Oil Emulsification: Oil emulsification can lead to a reduction in various performance aspects of the oil, not only affecting the vehicle's power performance and fuel economy but also increasing the engine's wear. Over time, this can easily lead to bearing seizure and even complete engine failure. Causes of Oil Emulsification: 1. Cylinder Liner Damage: This is likely due to cracks in the cylinder liner, allowing coolant to seep through the cylinder wall directly into the oil pan. Alternatively, it could be due to aging of the cylinder liner sealing ring, in which case the seal should be checked. 2. Engine Water Plug Leakage: If the engine water plug is severely aged, it will definitely leak. In this case, coolant will mix directly into the oil pan, making regular inspection of the water plug crucial. 3. Radiator Damage: Additionally, damage to the oil cooler pipes can also cause water to enter the oil. 4. Cylinder Head Gasket Damage: Due to prolonged high-pressure conditions inside the cylinder, the cylinder liner may become damaged, causing the oil and coolant passages to interconnect, leading to oil emulsification.
