When the BMW 5 Series GT was first launched, its high pricing and lack of standout features in terms of exterior design and performance led to lackluster sales, ultimately resulting in its discontinuation due to poor sales performance. Here is a detailed introduction to the BMW 5 Series GT: Overview: The BMW 5 Series GT is a premium business sedan under the BMW brand, built on the same CLAR platform as the new 7 Series. Additionally, thanks to the use of materials such as aluminum alloy, high-strength steel, and carbon fiber, the BMW 5 Series GT is 99.8kg lighter than the previous generation model. Fuel consumption ranges from 7.4 to 10.5L. Other Features: The interior of the 5 Series GT follows BMW's signature minimalist style, with various elements closely resembling those of the flagship 7 Series. The dashboard consists of a 10.2-inch high-resolution display, a 6-disc DVD changer, and an air conditioning control panel.

What Are Practical Methods for Judging Left and Right Vehicle Distance?

You can use fixed reference points on the car to judge. When the midpoint of the vehicle's left rearview mirror aligns with the left sideline, the distance between the vehicle and the sideline is 1.5 meters. When the white line is at the midpoint of the engine hood, the vehicle's right wheel is already on the line. If the white line is at the halfway point on the right side of the engine hood, the distance to the right sideline is 30 centimeters. When the distance between the vehicle and an obstacle vehicle is 20 centimeters, the lowest visible point of the obstacle vehicle in the field of vision is at 80 centimeters.

How to Solve Exhaust Camshaft Position Fluctuation?

Install a dial indicator in the thrust direction at the front end of the camshaft to measure whether the axial movement (forward and backward) of the camshaft indicates normal end clearance on the dial. The limit value for camshaft end clearance is 0.1~0.2mm. If it exceeds this value, the thickness of the spacer ring can be reduced or the thrust flange can be replaced. Fluctuation caused by a faulty camshaft position sensor can be resolved by replacing the sensor with a new one. Check whether the timing chain is loose, as a loose chain can cause misalignment of the gear teeth, leading to camshaft fluctuation.

How to Claim Insurance for a Flood-Damaged Car?

Once a vehicle is submerged in water, the owner must immediately call the insurance company to report the incident. If the insurance company cannot arrive at the scene promptly, the owner should take photos of the scene and the vehicle damage while ensuring their own safety, to facilitate the damage assessment. Both insurance companies and 4S shops offer towing and rescue services, but in severe weather, the owner can contact a rescue company directly for towing assistance. After reporting the incident, the insurance company will arrange for a staff member to contact the owner and conduct an on-site inspection nearby. During the inspection, the staff will photograph the vehicle's damage. The insurance company will verify the damaged parts of the vehicle and provide compensation according to the signed contract and the law.
