Can You Still Drive with Only 10% Oil Left?

[OLondon]

You can still drive with only 10% oil left, but it is generally not recommended to continue driving as it can cause more damage to the car. Here is some relevant information about car engine oil: 1. Definition: Engine oil, also known as engine lubricant, serves to lubricate and reduce friction in the engine, assist in cooling, seal against leaks, prevent rust and corrosion, and provide shock absorption. It is often referred to as the 'blood' of the car. 2. Precautions: When removing the oil pan screw, avoid using an adjustable wrench as it can easily strip the screw. Before draining the oil, loosening the oil cap in advance will allow the old oil to flow more smoothly. When tightening the oil pan screw, be mindful of the force applied—just tighten it sufficiently to avoid stripping the threads. Some oil pan screws come with copper washers to prevent leaks, which need to be replaced periodically, and the oil pan screws themselves should also be replaced regularly.
