How many more kilometers can a car drive after exceeding the maintenance mileage?
1 Answers
It can still drive an additional 1,000 kilometers after exceeding the maintenance mileage. However, frequently exceeding the maintenance mileage will increase engine wear. Hazards of exceeding car maintenance mileage: When engine oil exceeds the maintenance mileage, its fluidity deteriorates, and its viscosity properties change. The engine does not receive sufficient lubrication, leading to increased wear and higher fuel consumption. When coolant exceeds the mileage, the cooling system's heat dissipation performance declines. Deteriorated coolant can easily form scale within the system, reducing the engine's heat dissipation efficiency. Excessive temperatures can easily cause the engine compartment to catch fire. When brake fluid exceeds the maintenance mileage, it deteriorates, and its boiling point decreases. Prolonged or frequent braking can cause the brake fluid temperature to rise, leading to boiling. The formation of air bubbles in the system directly results in weak or failed braking. Precautions for car maintenance: Perform vehicle maintenance according to the specified time or mileage, and avoid exceeding it by too much. Regularly check the tire condition for cracks, bulges, scratches, or abnormal wear. If any components show abnormalities, promptly send the vehicle to a repair shop for inspection. After each maintenance, reset the maintenance light and related parameters, and clean up any spilled fluids to prevent damage to vehicle components.
