To display the mileage on the new BMW 3 Series, you need to use the BC button to switch the driving display content. Here is a detailed introduction about the new BMW 3 Series: 1. Model-related: The new BMW 3 Series is the latest generation sedan product from BMW Group, with a body weight of 1,465 kilograms and an inline four-cylinder gasoline engine. Its aesthetic design, engineering design, high-tech features, luxury comfort, and safety have all reached a new level. 2. BC button-related: The BC button is used to switch the display content on the instrument panel's LCD screen. This button is used to confirm the selected display or set values. Each press switches between average fuel consumption, average speed, and remaining fuel range.

The total mileage isn't displaying on the new BMW 3 Series, likely due to a software setting issue. As someone who pays attention to details while driving, I've noticed the new digital screens sometimes hide the mileage by default. Try using the BC button on the steering wheel or check the settings menu to switch to the driving data option. If it still doesn't appear, there might be a bug from the recent system update causing display abnormalities. Don't worry - restarting the vehicle several times or resetting the display in the iDrive settings may help. If the problem persists, it could indicate an instrument cluster circuit malfunction. I recommend contacting a BMW dealership for diagnostics - they can perform free software upgrades or hardware checks. The new car drives wonderfully, but these minor issues should be addressed promptly.

What is the difference between the left and right sides of the car fuel filler port?

The differences between the left and right sides of the car fuel filler port are as follows: Determination of driving direction: As is well known, in different countries around the world, the requirements for vehicles driving on the road boil down to two rules: driving on the left side and driving on the right side. Therefore, the placement of the fuel filler port naturally follows these road driving rules. For example, in countries like Germany and Sweden, to facilitate refueling, the fuel filler port is uniformly placed on the right side of the vehicle body. Road safety concerns: Generally speaking, road safety is of utmost importance for vehicles. Many car manufacturers deliberately place the fuel filler port on the diagonal opposite the driver's seat to protect the driver. If the fuel tank catches fire due to static electricity while refueling at a gas station, this setup maximizes the protection of the driver's personal safety. Improving refueling efficiency: When the fuel filler port is placed on either the left or right side of the vehicle body, it allows vehicles with fuel filler ports on different sides to queue up quickly for refueling, thereby improving efficiency. If all vehicles had their fuel filler ports on the same side, it would naturally lead to congestion at gas stations, prolonging the refueling time.

What is the suitable normal tire pressure for Suzuki UY125?

The normal tire pressure range for Suzuki UY125 is 2.4-2.5 bar. According to the provisions and requirements of the international GBT2978-2008 standard, the standard tire pressure for standard tires is 2.4-2.5 bar; for reinforced tires, it is 2.8-2.9 bar; the maximum air pressure should not exceed 3.5 bar. Hazards of excessive tire pressure: The friction and adhesion of the tire will decrease, affecting braking performance; It can cause steering wheel vibration and deviation, reducing driving comfort; Accelerates wear on the central tread pattern of the tire, shortening tire life; Increases vehicle body vibration, indirectly affecting the lifespan of other components; Excessive stretching deformation of the tire cords reduces the elasticity of the tire body, increasing the load on the vehicle during driving; Decreases puncture resistance. When encountering sharp objects like nails or glass on the road, the tire is more easily punctured, and impacts can cause internal cracks and bursts, leading to tire blowouts. Hazards of insufficient tire pressure: Increases the friction coefficient with the road surface, leading to higher fuel consumption; Causes the steering wheel to feel heavy and prone to deviation, posing safety risks; Increases movement in various parts of the tire, causing abnormal heating due to excessive rolling; Reduces the functionality of the cords and rubber, leading to delamination or cord breakage, and excessive friction with the rim causing damage and abnormal wear at the bead area; Multiplies the friction between the tire and the ground, sharply increasing tire temperature, softening the tire, and drastically reducing its strength. High-speed driving may result in tire blowouts; Increases tire body deformation, making the tire side prone to cracks, and generates flexing movements, leading to excessive heat, promoting rubber aging, fatigue in the cord layers, and cord breakage. It also increases the tire's contact area with the ground, accelerating shoulder wear.

What are some car driving techniques and tips?

Here are some car driving techniques and tips: Check the car before getting in: Walk around the car once before getting in to check the exterior condition, tires, and whether there is any oil or water leakage under the car. Also, open the hood once a week to check the engine oil, coolant, and brake fluid. Warm up the car before driving: Fuel-injected cars hardly need warming up. Here, warming up refers to starting the lubrication system. If the car has been parked for more than 3 hours, after starting the engine, let it idle for more than 10 seconds until the tachometer drops to around 1000 RPM before driving. In extremely cold weather in the north, extend the idling warm-up time appropriately. Start in first gear: Car transmissions are designed to prioritize speed. Forcing a start in second gear not only increases the engine load but also leads to premature clutch wear. Therefore, regardless of the engine displacement, always start in first gear. Some taxi drivers or friends prefer to skip gears while driving, going directly from 1st to 3rd to 5th gear, using 2nd and 4th gears only as transitional gears, skipping them by pressing the accelerator hard. Although this might give a slight lead in acceleration at low speeds, by the time you reach 3rd gear, there’s no difference. This habit of skipping gears is actually very bad, as it can cause carbon buildup and damage the engine. Shift smoothly: Smooth shifting requires two things: first, the speed must reach the range suitable for the target gear; second, when releasing the clutch, pause at the "engagement point" (not slowly, but stop!), while slightly pressing the accelerator to feel the car moving forward, then gently release the clutch. This operation ensures smooth, seamless, and jerk-free shifting. Make it a habit to pause slightly at the engagement point when releasing the clutch, then coordinate with your left foot and gently press the accelerator with your right foot. Although after reaching 3rd gear, the effect of this habit on reducing jerkiness is not very noticeable.

Does Car Insurance Cover Water Damage?

Compensation is available if you have purchased vehicle water ingress insurance. Below is an introduction to water ingress insurance: Definition: Water ingress insurance, also known as auto loss insurance or engine special loss insurance, varies in name among insurance companies but is essentially the same. It is a newly derived type of insurance, referring to an additional coverage purchased by the car owner for the engine. Function: It primarily provides compensation for engine damage caused by driving through waterlogged roads or being submerged in water. However, if the car owner forcibly starts the engine after submersion, resulting in damage, the insurance company will not compensate.
