Not very serious. All cars may experience oil burning, so it is normal for Porsche to have oil burning issues. Oil burning is an unavoidable phenomenon in any vehicle. The reasons for oil burning may include the use of non-compliant engine oil, or engine oil viscosity that is either too high or too low, which can lead to increased engine wear. Introduction to the Cayenne model: 1. Exterior: The Cayenne's headlights and radiator grille maintain Porsche's traditional style, with a vehicle width of 1940mm, height of 1690mm, and ground clearance of 273mm; 2. Drive system: The Cayenne is equipped with the Porsche Traction Management System developed by Porsche; 3. Configuration: The Cayenne features a 5-seat design, dual-tone interior in the same tone, with door panels, seats, steering wheel, and gear shift lever all wrapped in genuine leather, aluminum-white interior panels, a 3-dial instrument cluster, independently adjustable front seat climate control, a multifunction steering wheel, a 10-speaker audio system, and an LCD comprehensive information display center console screen, all as standard equipment.

I've been driving a Porsche Cayenne for several years, specifically the 2018 Turbo model, and have indeed encountered minor oil consumption issues. From my personal observation, this is primarily due to its turbocharged engine, where piston rings and valve seals are prone to aging under high temperatures, leading to oil leakage or evaporation. Some oil consumption is normal for engines, such as adding half a liter per 1,000 kilometers, but my car sometimes consumes up to 1 liter, which is clearly excessive. This is actually related to driving habits—prolonged high-speed driving exacerbates the issue. I recommend regularly checking the oil dipstick, ideally every two weeks. If you notice the oil level dropping quickly, don't hesitate to take it to a professional shop to inspect the piston rings or turbo seals. Switching to synthetic oil can also help mitigate the problem. After all, the Cayenne is a high-performance vehicle, and proper maintenance is key to enjoying its full potential.

What are the components of a parking sensor?

Parking sensors consist of: ultrasonic sensors (commonly known as probes), controllers, and displays (or buzzers). Parking sensors, also known as "reverse collision avoidance radar" or "parking assist devices," are particularly useful when reversing a car, helping to prevent accidents and hazards. Parking sensors are safety assist devices for car parking or reversing, which can inform the driver of surrounding obstacles through sound or more intuitive displays, eliminating the troubles caused by the driver's need to look around when parking, reversing, or starting the vehicle, and helping the driver overcome blind spots and unclear vision.

What is the reason for no sound when the Qoros 5 connects to Bluetooth?

The reasons for no sound when the Qoros 5 connects to Bluetooth are as follows: 1. Volume issue: The car Bluetooth is connected but there is no sound, which may be because the phone is on silent mode or the volume is set to zero, or the car navigation system has no sound or the volume is too low to hear. 2. Version and other issues: Some car Bluetooth systems may still play the last media audio source if the car is not in the Bluetooth media audio playback interface after connection, resulting in no sound when playing music. If only the music has no sound, it cannot be ruled out that there is a problem with the individual application version.

Why does the reversing radar keep beeping?

Reasons why the reversing radar keeps beeping: 1. The reversing radar sensor is dirty; 2. Water ingress in the probe; 3. Malfunction of the reversing radar sensor or controller. The reversing radar, also known as the reverse collision avoidance radar or parking assist device, mainly consists of ultrasonic sensors, a controller, and a display unit. The reversing radar is a safety auxiliary device for parking or reversing a car. It can inform the driver of the surrounding obstacles through sound or more intuitive display, relieving the driver from the trouble of looking around when parking, reversing, and starting the vehicle, and helping the driver eliminate blind spots and blurred vision.
