Storing engine oil in the trunk has no impact in summer. Below is an introduction to the knowledge about storing engine oil in the trunk: 1. Precautions: Engine oil is not classified as a hazardous material and is not flammable, so it can be safely stored in the trunk. It does not need to comply with the regulations for transporting and storing hazardous materials. However, lubricating oil is still a chemical product, so safe storage and transportation must be ensured to avoid environmental pollution. 2. Function of Engine Oil: Engine oil has a lubricating effect. There is rapid relative sliding between the piston and cylinder, as well as between the main shaft and bearing bush. To prevent excessive wear of parts, an oil film needs to be established between the two sliding surfaces. A sufficiently thick oil film separates the surfaces of the relatively sliding parts.

How Often Should Brake Fluid and Antifreeze Be Replaced?

Brake fluid should be replaced every 40,000 kilometers or 2 years, while antifreeze should be replaced every 4 years or 60,000 kilometers. The functions of antifreeze include the following 2 points: 1. Anti-corrosion function: The engine and its cooling system are made of metals such as copper and iron. These metals can corrode over time when exposed to water under high temperatures. Antifreeze not only prevents corrosion in the engine cooling system but also provides anti-corrosion and rust-removal functions; 2. Protective effect: It offers anti-corrosion protection for components of the cooling system, prevents scale buildup, avoids reducing the radiator's cooling efficiency, and ensures the engine operates within the normal temperature range.

How many days after painting can the car be driven?

Generally, the car can be driven 1 day after painting. Automotive painting refers to applying a layer of paint on the car's surface to protect it, usually using baking paint. The automotive painting process includes: applying putty, sanding, painting, etc. Automotive paints include: standard paint, metallic paint, pearl paint, clear coat, and matte paint. After automotive painting, the following should be noted: 1. Do not use high-pressure water to wash the car body directly, as the hardness of the repainted area is lower than the original factory paint, and excessive water pressure can damage the car's paint surface; 2. Avoid using random cleaning agents. While driving, the car may accumulate tar, oil stains, insects, etc., and such situations should be handled with care.
