Whether a diesel vehicle can be driven after the SVS light comes on depends on the following two aspects: 1. You can try to start the engine. If it fails to start, it may be due to an abnormal fuel pump that cannot supply fuel to the engine properly. 2. If the engine can still be started, it may be due to other sensor failures. In this case, the vehicle can still be driven. 3. It cannot be ruled out that the fault may affect the normal use of the vehicle, such as increased fuel consumption or body vibration. Here are the solutions for a diesel vehicle that cannot start when the SVS light is on: 1. Check whether other equipment in the vehicle shows abnormalities, such as the water temperature gauge or oil pressure warning light. 2. If only the SVS light is on and the engine can be started, drive cautiously, control the speed, and go to a repair shop for inspection in time.

What is the difference between SP and SN gasoline engine oils?

The differences between SN and SP engine oils are as follows: 1. Different viscosity levels: The difference between SN and SP engine oils lies in their thickness or viscosity (phosphorus content) at a certain temperature. SN engine oil has a relatively lower phosphorus content. 2. Different viscosity numbers: Comparing the viscosity of SN and SP oils, SP has a higher viscosity number, indicating that SP's oil film is stronger than SN's, providing better protective performance. Additionally, SP offers stable improvements over SN in terms of noise reduction, fuel consumption, and acceleration performance. SP represents the oil quality grade, where SG, SJ, SL, SM, and the subsequent SP are all grades of gasoline engine oils. SP is currently the highest grade of gasoline engine oil, and the higher the grade of the oil, the better its various technical indicators.

What kind of lines allow U-turns?

Motor vehicles can make U-turns at locations where there are no signs or markings prohibiting U-turns or left turns. Below are some relevant introductions about driving motor vehicles: 1. Precautions: Avoid braking in case of a sudden tire blowout. Try to keep the vehicle moving in a straight line as much as possible. Allow the vehicle enough speed to regain control, then gently lift your foot off the accelerator, steer in the direction of the blown tire, and finally, the blown tire will gradually bring the vehicle to a stop. The handbrake may fail if not used for a long time. The handbrake uses a steel cable to stop the vehicle, and the issue with steel cables is that they can rust and corrode, especially if not used for an extended period, leading to handbrake failure. 2. Tips: Turn on the headlights during traffic jams. Research shows that turning on the headlights reduces the chance of catching up in an accident by 32%.
