Reasons why BMW doesn't use THP engines: THP engine underwent a name change: The THP engine was a product jointly developed by BMW and PSA Peugeot Citroën starting in 2002. The final prototype was called the Prince engine. Although it was a co-developed product, BMW's Prince series engines were named the N13 series and were produced in Birmingham, UK. Therefore, BMW didn't abandon the THP engine but simply changed its name. Introduction to the BMW brand: BMW is a German luxury automobile brand founded in 1916, with its headquarters located in Munich, Bavaria, Germany. The blue and white colors of the BMW logo represent the colors of the Bavarian state flag where BMW's headquarters is located. Over the past century, BMW has evolved from an aircraft engine manufacturer into an enterprise group primarily focused on premium cars, while also producing SUVs and motorcycles.

What Causes High Engine Idle Speed?

Reasons for high engine idle speed: 1. Intake manifold or various valve leaks, when air, gasoline vapor, or combustion exhaust that should not enter the intake manifold causes the air-fuel mixture to be too rich or too lean, resulting in abnormal engine combustion; 2. Excessive carbon buildup on the throttle body and intake passages, preventing the control unit from accurately controlling idle air intake, leading to an overly rich or lean mixture and abnormal combustion; 3. Faulty idle air control components, causing inaccurate idle air control; 4. Valve train issues, where faults in the valve train result in excessive power loss in individual cylinders, leading to imbalance in power output among cylinders.

What is the working principle of CVT?

CVT working principle: In a CVT transmission system, traditional gears are replaced by a pair of pulleys and a steel belt. Each pulley is actually a V-shaped structure composed of two conical discs. The engine shaft connects to the small pulley, which drives the large pulley through the steel belt. The secret lies in the special pulley: the CVT's drive pulley has a unique structure, divided into movable left and right halves that can move closer together or apart. The conical discs can tighten or expand under hydraulic pressure, squeezing the steel belt to adjust the width of the V-shaped groove. When the conical discs move inward and tighten, the steel belt is pushed outward away from the center under the pressure of the discs. Conversely, it moves inward toward the center. This changes the diameter of the disc driven by the steel belt, thereby altering the gear ratio.
