This is not credible. The specific details are as follows: The main causes of engine oil burning are wear of the piston rings or misalignment of the piston rings, which may require repair or replacement in severe cases. Additives, on the contrary, can lead to overheating and increased wear. Additional information: 1. Piston Rings: A piston ring is a metal ring fitted into the grooves of a piston. There are two types of piston rings: compression rings and oil rings. Compression rings are used to seal the combustible gas mixture in the combustion chamber, while oil rings are used to scrape off excess oil from the cylinder walls. 2. Function of Piston Rings: A piston ring is a metal elastic ring with significant outward expansion deformation, installed in a corresponding annular groove. Reciprocating and rotating piston rings rely on the pressure difference of gas or liquid to form a seal between the outer circular surface of the ring and the cylinder, as well as between the ring and one side of the ring groove.

Is It Normal for the Engine Fault Light to Illuminate in a New Car?

Specific reasons are as follows. Below is relevant information: Starting ignition: A starting system malfunction prevents the engine from turning or causes it to turn too slowly. Ignition system failure, possibly due to incorrect ignition timing. Engine: Poor engine idling or stalling, with the main cause being a malfunction in the idle control system. Poor engine combustion state is the primary reason for the engine fault light illuminating. An engine is a machine capable of converting other forms of energy into mechanical energy, including internal combustion engines (reciprocating piston engines), external combustion engines (Stirling engines, steam engines, etc.), jet engines, electric motors, etc.

Please Repair Power Steering, Drive Carefully - What Are the Reasons?

Reasons for the prompt 'Please repair power steering, drive carefully': lack of power steering fluid, issues with the power steering sensor, or problems with the power steering assist device. Below are the details: Lack of Power Steering Fluid: Symptoms of low fluid: oil level too low, causing abnormal noises when turning the steering wheel; poor lubrication when the car is cold, leading to internal wear and abnormal noises; difficulty steering or even inability to steer. Solution: the steering fluid needs to be replaced, and the oil level should be within the specified range. If the fluid is insufficient, after checking for no leaks in all parts, the power steering fluid should be replenished with the specified brand. Issues with the Power Steering Sensor: If the power steering sensor fails, it will not detect signals, and the most obvious symptom is that the steering wheel becomes very heavy when turning. Solution: it is necessary to visit a 4S shop or auto repair shop for inspection to determine whether the ABS wheel speed sensor wire needs to be replaced. Problems with the Power Steering Assist Device: Accompanied by the following symptoms: heavy steering, abnormal steering noises, steering wheel shaking, poor steering wheel return ability, etc. Solution: inspect the steering gear, steering pump control valve, oil cup filter, steering fluid, and clean the entire power steering system; check tire pressure and replenish if low; inspect all connecting parts of the oil pipes and tighten all connecting bolts; replace oil pipes, power steering pump, or power steering gear if necessary.

Is a car that has been in stock for over three months considered a stock car?

There is no clear definition of a stock car, and there are no relevant national regulations specifying the term 'stock car.' However, in the automotive sales industry, the term 'stock car' does exist, generally referring to vehicles that have been in stock for more than three months or even half a year. Imported cars, due to factors such as transportation cycles, are considered stock cars if they have been manufactured six months or more prior to the current date. Below is relevant information for your own judgment: In reality, after consumers place an order for their desired car, not all can be picked up within a short period. Most deliveries take a month or even longer, which means some new cars may become 'stock cars' in terms of definition by the time they are delivered. However, this is not a major concern, as being in stock for a slightly longer period does not necessarily imply any issues. To check the production date of a new car, you can simply refer to the vehicle's nameplate located on the passenger side or inside the engine compartment. Solution: If the car has been in stock for over a year, you can request the 4S store to replace the original engine oil. Additionally, check the production date of the tires, as new tires older than two years may face the risk of rubber aging, so you should also ask the 4S store to replace them. If these two aspects are fine, such a stock car will not affect its usability.

How to reference points for roadside parking in rainy weather during Subject 3 test?

When receiving the instruction to pull over, immediately turn on the right turn signal and reduce speed (if the speed is too high, apply brakes and shift to a lower gear; if the speed is moderate, just use clutch and brake for control). Here are the relevant details: Observation: Simultaneously check the right side mirror and the right rear of the vehicle for any vehicles or pedestrians that need to be avoided. Once the right side and rear are clear, slightly steer right (while gently applying brakes and fully depressing the clutch), align the driver's position toward the center of the road, then make minor right adjustments until the front 1/3 of the vehicle overlaps with the right lane edge line. Straighten the vehicle body and gradually brake when approximately 30cm from the roadside or boundary line to bring the vehicle to a stop. Note: If there are intersections, bus stops, or no-parking signs ahead, you should proceed past these areas before stopping.
