Not all good cars burn engine oil. This is merely a subjective opinion conveyed by some 4S shops. Main reasons for engine oil burning: Valve oil seal; Excessive piston clearance; Driving habits; Excessive engine oil volume. "Burning engine oil" refers to the situation where engine oil enters the combustion chamber of the engine and participates in combustion along with the air-fuel mixture. The phenomenon of "burning engine oil" in vehicles can lead to rapid damage of the oxygen sensor, increased carbon deposits in the combustion chamber, unstable idling, lack of acceleration power, increased fuel consumption, and excessive exhaust emissions, among other adverse consequences. Methods to address engine oil burning: Timely replacement of the valve oil seal is necessary to ensure the sealing of the valve. Direct replacement of the piston rings in the car is also a solution. Regular cleaning of carbon deposits on the piston rings is another preventive measure against oil burning. In daily driving, attention should be paid to driving habits, avoiding overly aggressive driving.

Why can't the car start and the gear can't be shifted?

Here are the reasons why the car can't start and the gear can't be shifted: 1. No fuel: If the fuel gauge shows below the red line, the car naturally won't start. 2. Dead battery: This could be due to a drained battery from leaving the headlights on for too long or the battery's lifespan has expired. It is generally recommended to replace the battery every 2 years. Additionally, installing xenon headlights, high-power audio systems, DVD players, etc., can also cause vehicle circuit failures. Checking for a dead battery is simple—just press the horn to find out. 3. Incorrect gear position: When starting an automatic transmission car, the gear must be in the P (Park) or N (Neutral) position. If it's in R (Reverse) or D (Drive), the car won't start. Some manual transmission cars also won't start if the clutch isn't pressed.

Does Coasting in Neutral Save or Waste Fuel?

Coasting in neutral does not save fuel; sometimes it even consumes more and is detrimental to driving safety. Modern vehicles generally use fuel-injected engines controlled by the vehicle's ECU for fuel injection. If you choose to coast in neutral, the ECU will put the car into idle mode, which actually requires fuel injection to keep the engine running. Disadvantages of coasting in neutral: 1. Prone to stalling: Coasting in neutral can easily cause the vehicle to stall, which is harmful to the engine. Coasting in neutral should only be done under safe conditions and when the vehicle's technical condition is normal. It is prohibited to coast with the engine off, especially when going down steep or long slopes. 2. Reduced safety: Coasting in neutral significantly compromises safety. In fact, a vehicle's forward motion relies on the torque generated by the engine. Higher gears provide less torque, and throttle response becomes sluggish, slowing down acceleration. Therefore, the correct way to overtake is to downshift one gear. For automatic transmissions, simply pressing the accelerator pedal all the way down will cause the transmission to downshift one gear to provide sufficient torque.

Which part of the car is the hub?

Car hubs are wheel rims. Below is relevant information about wheel rims: 1. Introduction: The wheel rim is the rotating part of the tire's inner contour connected to the wheel steel via columns, i.e., the metal component at the center that supports the tire and is mounted on the axle. It is also called the wheel ring, steel ring, or tire bell. Wheel rims come in various types based on diameter, width, forming method, and material. 2. Size: The size of the wheel rim refers to its diameter. Generally, in passenger cars, larger wheel rim sizes with higher tire aspect ratios can create a visually appealing tension effect and improve the stability of vehicle handling. However, this comes with the additional issue of increased fuel consumption.

Is it necessary to apply film to the car windshield?

The front windshield of a car needs to be filmed for protection against outdoor UV radiation and visible light. Below is an introduction about the film: 1. Front Windshield: Modern car front windshields have adopted single-piece curved windshields, gradually phasing out flat-type windshields. Today's car windshields are generally made into a large curved single-piece design with certain curvatures on all sides. This type of curved glass is a product with very high technical requirements, whether from the processing or assembly perspective, as it involves issues such as vehicle model, strength, heat insulation, and installation. 2. Car Film: Car film (Auto-film) refers to applying a thin film-like object to the front and rear windshields, side windows, and sunroof of a vehicle. This film-like object is also called a solar film or heat-insulating film. Its main functions are to block UV rays, partially block heat, prevent injuries caused by glass shattering, reduce glare, and, based on the one-way transparency feature of the solar film, achieve the purpose of protecting personal privacy.

What to Ask When Applying for a Driver's License?

When applying for a driver's license, it's important to inquire about the details of the driving school, such as its scale, infrastructure, class types, fee structure, test center locations, training grounds, etc. The following provides a detailed explanation. Understanding these details in advance can help avoid pitfalls later on. Introduction to the driver's license examination: 1. Content: The examination for motor vehicle drivers is divided into three parts: the road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge test (also known as the "theory test," hereinafter referred to as "Subject 1"), the field driving skills test (commonly known as the "parking test," hereinafter referred to as "Subject 2"), and the road driving skills and safe civilized driving knowledge test (commonly known as the "road test," hereinafter referred to as "Subject 3"). The examination content and passing standards are unified nationwide, with corresponding test items specified according to different vehicle types. 2. Reform: Regarding the driver's license examination, starting from June 1 this year, the "slope parking and starting" item in Subject 2 for small automatic transmission vehicle licenses will be canceled. The interval between scheduling Subject 3 will be adjusted from 30 days after passing Subject 1 to 20 days.
