You can still drive when the car prompts an oil change, but the specific situation is as follows: 1. Immediate Replacement: It is best to go to a repair shop immediately for an oil change. 2. Reminder Rules: Generally, the onboard computer in vehicles reminds you to change the oil based on mileage or oil usage time, which may have some margin of error. Information about engine oil is as follows: 1. Engine Oil: It is the lubricating oil used by the engine, composed of base oil and additives. 2. Function: With a density of approximately 0.91×10³ (kg/m³), engine oil lubricates and reduces friction, assists in cooling, seals against leaks, prevents rust and corrosion, and cushions shocks. It is known as the 'blood' of the car. Base oil is the main component of lubricating oil, determining its basic properties, while additives compensate for and improve the shortcomings of the base oil, providing new properties. Additives are an important part of lubricating oil.
