Can I Turn on the Heater While the Car is Parked?

You can turn on the heater while the car is parked, but avoid keeping the windows closed with the heater running for extended periods, as this can easily lead to carbon monoxide poisoning. The heating principle of a car's air conditioning system is quite simple. When heating, the high-temperature coolant from the engine flows through the heater core, and the air blown by the blower also passes through the heater core, allowing warm air to be emitted from the air vents. The refrigerant used in car air conditioning is R134a, which needs to be replaced periodically. If the refrigerant is not replaced for a long time, it can result in reduced cooling efficiency and slower cooling speeds. It is recommended to regularly replace the car air conditioning refrigerant during routine vehicle use.

Should the EA211 use 5W30 or 5W40?

Both 5W30 and 5W40 can be used for the EA211 engine. If the engine is older, it is recommended to use 5W40 oil. Both 5W30 and 5W40 refer to the SAE (Society of Automotive Engineers) rating of the oil, indicating its viscosity value. The 'W' stands for winter, and the number before it represents the lower environmental temperature at which the oil can be used, providing better engine protection during cold starts. Higher viscosity oil is more suitable for older vehicles or for drivers who drive aggressively. Engines with more severe wear and larger gaps benefit from higher viscosity oil as it offers better protection.
