It is usually caused by the aging of the valve oil seal rubber, and replacing this part can solve the problem. Here is the relevant introduction: 1. Oil burning: Oil burning generally manifests as blue exhaust smoke coming out of the tailpipe while driving, which indicates that excessive engine oil has entered the combustion chamber and participated in combustion. Under normal circumstances, the engine will also burn a small amount of oil from the cylinder block, pistons, and lubrication during operation. However, what we are discussing here is oil burning that exceeds the normal range. 2. Engine oil: Engine oil, also known as engine lubricant, plays roles such as lubrication and wear reduction, auxiliary cooling, sealing and leakage prevention, rust and corrosion prevention, and shock absorption. It is known as the 'blood' of a car.

Does the Excelle have a reverse parking sensor?

The Excelle is equipped with a reverse parking sensor. Here are some additional details: 1. The reverse parking sensor is installed on the rear bumper, and the parking assist system can measure the distance between the vehicle and rear obstacles, making parking easier. 2. The reverse parking sensor provides auditory signals to alert and warn the driver. 3. When an obstacle is detected behind the vehicle, the system emits a beeping alarm sound. As the vehicle gets closer to the obstacle, the frequency of the alarm sound gradually increases. When the alarm sound becomes a continuous long beep, it indicates that the vehicle should not move any closer. 4. The reverse parking sensor is a safety assist device for parking or reversing the vehicle. It informs the driver about surrounding obstacles through sound or more intuitive displays, eliminating the trouble caused by the driver having to look around when parking, reversing, or starting the vehicle, and helping the driver overcome blind spots and unclear vision.

What is the normal engine oil consumption?

National automotive authorities consider: 0.3 liters per 1,000 kilometers of oil consumption as the recommended standard, which is normal consumption; 0.3-1 liters per 1,000 kilometers is considered minor oil burning. More information about engine oil is as follows: 1. Engine oil lubricates the pistons, piston rings, and cylinders. When a piston engine operates, there is a layer of oil film on the cylinder walls, and part of this oil film is burned off by the high-temperature combustion gases during the combustion of the air-fuel mixture. 2. Engine oil is also used to lubricate the intake valve stems and can be drawn into the combustion chamber. High-temperature exhaust gases similarly consume the oil used to lubricate the exhaust valves. 3. As the engine operating time increases, the oil vapors produced by high-temperature oxidation in the engine are drawn into the combustion chamber through the crankcase ventilation valve and burned.

How thick are the brake pads on the Santa Fe?

The thickness of the Santa Fe's brake pads is 1.5cm. Here is some additional information: 1. When the brake pads wear down to only one-third of their original thickness, it's time to prepare for replacement. At 0.3cm, the brake pads reach their minimum thickness limit. They must be replaced as soon as possible to avoid safety hazards. 2. When the brake pads reach 0.5cm, they should be inspected and ready for replacement at any time. 3. Some vehicles are equipped with a brake pad wear warning system. Once the wear limit is reached, the dashboard will display a warning to replace the pads. 4. After replacing the brake pads, press the brake pedal several times to eliminate the gap between the brake pads and the brake disc. This prevents the first brake application from failing to stop the vehicle, which could lead to an accident.

What does EPC on the dashboard mean?

EPC stands for Electronic-Power-Control (also known as the Engine Electronic Stability System), and many people refer to it as the electronic throttle. This system consists of components such as sensors and controllers. When a sensor malfunctions or detects an abnormal condition, the control system takes corresponding measures based on pre-set programs. More information about EPC is as follows: 1. Generally, there are two possible reasons for the EPC light to turn on. One is that the throttle is dirty and needs cleaning. The other is that the brake light is not working, requiring inspection of the brake switch and wiring. 2. Additionally, the EPC warning light may also illuminate due to fuel quality issues. In most Volkswagen vehicles, an illuminated EPC light indicates a problem with the vehicle, and it is recommended to visit a 4S shop for inspection as soon as possible.

Can You Shift to Neutral While Driving an Automatic Transmission Car?

It is not advisable to shift to neutral while driving an automatic transmission car. Although you can physically move the gear selector from D (Drive) to N (Neutral) while the vehicle is in motion, doing so can damage the automatic transmission. More details about automatic transmissions are as follows: 1. When the vehicle is moving at high speed, both the engine speed and the output shaft speed of the automatic transmission will be very high. Shifting to N (Neutral) will disconnect the engine from the wheels. 2. The hydraulic lines inside the automatic transmission may experience insufficient oil pressure, preventing proper lubrication of the transmission. This can lead to increased internal operating temperatures and higher friction pressure.
