Volvo S60L requires 3.6 liters of engine oil. The method for adding engine oil is as follows: 1. Lift the vehicle, remove the underbody panel, and place a container of about 10 liters under the oil drain plug; 2. Unscrew the oil drain plug, use an air gun to blow for two minutes at the oil filler port, then tighten the oil drain plug after draining and wipe it with a tissue to check for leaks; 3. Reinstall the underbody panel and lower the vehicle, then use a funnel to add engine oil through the oil filler port. Taking the 2021 Volvo S60L as an example, it belongs to the mid-size car category, with body dimensions of: length 4761mm, width 1850mm, height 1437mm, a wheelbase of 2872mm, and a trunk capacity of 391 liters.

What are the symptoms of a dirty car air filter?

If the air filter is dirty, the air intake will be insufficient, leading to incomplete fuel combustion, which causes unstable engine operation. When continuously pressing the accelerator pedal, the engine sound becomes muffled, acceleration response is sluggish, operation is weak, and the exhaust is thick and black. The replacement cycle of the air filter depends on the car's usage and surrounding environment. Under normal driving conditions, the air filter should be replaced every 15,000 kilometers. If frequently driving in poor environments, the replacement cycle should be appropriately shortened, not exceeding 10,000 kilometers. It is advisable to develop a habit of regular inspection and timely maintenance. The car air filter is installed in front of the carburetor or intake pipe to filter the air entering the engine. During operation, the engine inhales a large amount of air, which contains many dust particles. Without air filter filtration, it will accelerate the wear of the piston group and cylinder.

What is the function of the car ESB?

Car ESB is the car anti-lock braking system. It prevents the wheels from locking up during braking, improves braking speed, shortens braking distance, effectively enhances the directional stability and steering control ability of the car, and ensures driving safety. Car safety is an important aspect of car driving. Below is a detailed introduction about car safety: Overview: Car safety for vehicles is mainly divided into active safety and passive safety. Active safety refers to the ability to control the car as smoothly as possible. Whether it's braking and accelerating in a straight line or steering left and right, it should be as smooth as possible without deviating from the intended path and without affecting the driver's vision and comfort. Others: The scope of car safety technology is becoming wider and more detailed, developing towards integration, intelligence, systematization, and full participation. Strictly controlling speed during night driving is a fundamental measure to ensure safety.

What are Front-Wheel Drive and Rear-Wheel Drive?

Front-wheel drive refers to a power distribution method where the engine only drives the front pair of wheels, while rear-wheel drive means the engine's power is transmitted to the rear wheels via a driveshaft, propelling the vehicle forward. Below are the specific differences between front-wheel drive and rear-wheel drive: 1. In terms of sharp turns: Front-wheel-drive cars have a heavier front and lighter rear, making them prone to understeer during sharp turns; rear-wheel-drive cars have a lighter front and heavier rear, making them prone to oversteer, or fishtailing. 2. Space-wise: With the same wheelbase, front-wheel-drive cars have a transversely mounted engine positioned further forward, resulting in more interior space; rear-wheel-drive cars use a longitudinally mounted engine, which can encroach on interior space. 3. Appearance-wise: Front-wheel-drive models have a longer front overhang; rear-wheel-drive models have a relatively shorter front overhang, giving the front end a sleeker appearance. 4. Center of gravity perspective: When encountering steep slopes, front-wheel-drive cars have their center of gravity at the front, making them more prone to slipping when climbing; rear-wheel-drive cars perform much better in this regard.

What does the six-year exemption from inspection for vehicles mean?

New vehicles exempt from inspection for six years means that the car does not need to undergo an on-site inspection at a vehicle inspection station for the first six years. The on-site inspection is only one part of the annual vehicle inspection, so the six-year exemption does not mean all inspections are waived for the first six years. The following are relevant details: 1. In fact, owners still need to undergo a periodic inspection every two years, submit relevant materials such as the compulsory traffic accident insurance certificate and vehicle and vessel tax, and obtain the annual inspection label. 2. Although new vehicles enjoy a six-year exemption from inspection, in reality, the vehicle must undergo an on-site inspection in the sixth year. During the first six years, in the second and fourth years, owners only need to complete some relevant formalities; however, in the sixth year, the owner must take the car to the inspection station for an on-site inspection, and only after passing the inspection can they obtain the inspection label. 3. Additionally, not all vehicles are eligible for the six-year exemption. The exemption policy only applies to non-operational mini and small passenger vehicles and non-operational cars (including large cars). Starting from November 20, 2020, non-operational small and mini passenger vehicles with 7-9 seats are also included.

What Causes Difficulty in Starting the Car but No Issues While Driving?

The reasons for difficulty in starting the car but no issues while driving are low car battery voltage; a malfunction in the fuel supply system; and insufficient spark plug ignition energy. Below is additional information: Specific manifestations: After turning the ignition switch, the engine, driven by the starter, runs for more than 5 seconds but still fails to start. The car battery is an essential part of the vehicle and can be categorized into traditional lead-acid batteries and maintenance-free batteries. Fuel supply system: The fuel supply system is a device used to supply combustible mixed gas. Due to differences in fuel types, the supply methods may vary. The spark plug, commonly known as the sparking plug, is a crucial component of the gasoline engine's ignition system. It introduces high-voltage electricity into the combustion chamber and causes it to jump across the electrode gap to generate a spark, thereby igniting the combustible mixed gas in the cylinder. Components of a spark plug: A spark plug mainly consists of a terminal nut, insulator, terminal stud, center electrode, side electrode, and shell, with the side electrode welded onto the shell.
