Can You Directly Top Up Oil If the Car Engine Oil Is Insufficient?

You can directly top up oil if the car engine oil is insufficient. Faults caused by insufficient oil: "When the oil level is too low, it leads to poor lubrication on the friction surfaces of various engine components. Insufficient oil also reduces the engine's cooling and heat dissipation capability, causing internal overheating, which can further result in bearing bush burning and cylinder scoring. During driving, symptoms such as insufficient vehicle power and excessive oil consumption can be noticed." Symptoms of insufficient oil: The main symptom of engine oil burning is blue smoke coming from the exhaust pipe. Oil burning occurs when engine oil enters the combustion chamber through certain pathways and participates in combustion along with the air-fuel mixture. This is mainly caused by damaged piston rings leading to cylinder leakage, allowing oil to seep into the combustion chamber.
