Why does the BMW's ambient light remain on after locking the car

1 Answers

07/30/25 8:53am
BMW's interior lights stay on after the engine is turned off because the interior light is set to the DOOR position, which is the door control setting. After the vehicle is turned off, the interior lights will remain illuminated for a period of time to provide lighting for the driver when leaving the vehicle. As long as all four doors are closed for a certain period or the doors are locked, the interior lights will turn off. BMW is a German luxury car brand founded in 1916, headquartered in Munich, Bavaria, Germany. Its blue and white logo colors are derived from the Bavarian state flag. BMW's vehicle series include i, X, Z, and pure numeric models such as 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, as well as the M series, which is an improved version based on these series.

Can Hydraulic Oil Be Used as Engine Oil?

Hydraulic oil cannot be used as engine oil. Engine oil is designed for the lubrication system of an engine, primarily for cooling and lubrication to prevent overheating of automotive components. In contrast, hydraulic oil is mainly used in hydraulic systems for torque transmission, converting torque into force applied to driven workpieces. Their functions differ significantly, making them non-interchangeable. Engine oil, also known as motor oil or engine lubricant, is a substance enhanced with additives in base oil, primarily containing anti-wear additives, detergents, dispersants, and multi-grade viscosity index improvers. The main functions of engine oil are to reduce friction and wear on moving parts and to remove sludge (one of the functions of dispersants) and varnish (function of detergents) from the engine.

Can a motorcycle still be inspected after being overdue for inspection for 3 years?

Motorcycles can still be inspected if they have been overdue for inspection for 3 years, but they cannot be inspected if the overdue period exceeds 3 years. Overdue inspection refers to being outside the review period, mainly meaning that certain certificates or documents that require periodic review were not inspected within the specified time frame. Motorcycles are vehicles driven by gasoline engines, with two or three wheels steered by handlebars. They are lightweight, flexible, and fast, widely used for patrols, passenger and cargo transport, and also serve as sports equipment. Broadly speaking, motorcycles are categorized into street bikes, road racing motorcycles, off-road motorcycles, cruisers, and touring bikes. A motorcycle consists of five main parts: the engine, transmission system, running gear, braking system, and electrical instrumentation.

How to reset the tire pressure on an Audi Q5?

Audi Q5 tire pressure reset method: First, turn on the ignition, press and hold the tire pressure monitoring reset button until you hear a "ding" sound, then release it. The tire pressure monitoring system will store the current normal tire pressure data, automatically clear the previous data, and finally the dashboard warning light will turn off, completing the tire pressure reset. Solutions for insufficient tire pressure: If no damage is visible, simply inflate the tire to the normal pressure and reset the tire pressure system; If a puncture is found upon inspection, drive to a tire shop promptly for a repair, then reinflate the tire; If the tire pressure warning reappears after inflation but there is no puncture, it may be due to air leakage caused by a deformed wheel rim. It is recommended to check the wheel rim and replace it if necessary. Hazards of low tire pressure: Increased friction with the road surface leads to higher fuel consumption; Causes heavy steering and tendency to drift, which are factors detrimental to driving safety.

Can I Add Water If There Is No Antifreeze?

In emergency situations when there is no antifreeze or the coolant temperature warning light comes on, you can add water. The water added should only be purified water or distilled water. If tap water, well water, or mineral water is added, due to their hard water quality, scale deposits and corrosion of the engine cooling pipes can easily occur after heating. Methods to determine if antifreeze is low: Observe the antifreeze warning light on the dashboard. If it lights up, it is likely that the antifreeze is low, although it could also be due to excessively high cylinder temperature. Check the antifreeze reservoir. If the fluid level is below the minimum mark (MIN), do not continue driving and add antifreeze promptly. Check the water level markings on the antifreeze tank. The normal antifreeze level should be between the maximum and minimum marks. To determine if antifreeze is low, check the markings. If the antifreeze is below the minimum level, it indicates a shortage of antifreeze.

Why does the car shake when lightly braking but not when braking hard?

Light braking causing shaking while hard braking does not is due to an uneven surface of the brake disc and excessive radial runout. This results in inconsistent contact between the brake pads and the brake disc during braking, causing the braking force to vary. A brake is a mechanical device that slows down the vehicle, also known as a decelerator. The car's brake pedal is located below the steering wheel. Pressing the brake pedal activates the brake linkage, which applies pressure to the brake shoes on the brake drum, clamping the brake rotor and slowing or stopping the vehicle. The manual brake in a car is located next to the gearshift and is connected to the brake linkage. Common examples also include bicycle brakes, which use rod-shaped brakes fixed to the frame or disc brakes to slow down the bicycle.
