Toyota Corolla oil change without oil filter requires 3.9L, with oil filter requires 4.2L. Since there will inevitably be some variation in the amount of old oil drained, there will also be some variation in the amount of new oil added. After adding oil, you can check the oil dipstick to ensure the oil level. Purchasing a 4-liter container of oil is sufficient. Relevant information about engine oil is as follows: 1. Introduction: Engine oil, also known as engine lubricant (English name: Engine-oil), with a density of approximately 0.91×10³ (kg/m³), serves to lubricate and reduce friction, assist in cooling, seal against leaks, prevent rust and corrosion, and provide shock absorption. It is often referred to as the 'blood' of a car. 2. Composition: Engine oil consists of base oil and additives. The base oil is the main component of lubricating oil, determining its basic properties, while additives compensate for and improve the shortcomings of the base oil, providing new properties and making them an important part of lubricating oil.

Do tires need to be replaced after 40,000 kilometers?

Tires need to be replaced under the following five circumstances: 1. Tires must be discontinued when worn to the wear limit indicator (i.e., tread pattern depth below 1.6 mm). 2. Tire aging (confirmed by physical inspection). 3. Tires with deformed treads or damaged beads, tires with sidewall damage caused by driving under-inflated, and tires corroded by chemicals must not continue to be used. 4. Bulging tires must not continue to be used. 5. Other damages that affect the safety of tire use must not continue to be used. Generally, the service life of tires can be determined by two standards: the usage time should not exceed 5 years; the mileage under comprehensive road conditions should not exceed 60,000 kilometers. Whether to replace tires should be judged based on the actual condition of the tires.

Why does the Buick LaCrosse have poor resale value?

Buick LaCrosse has poor resale value for the following reasons: Insufficient brand influence: The most important reason is that Buick's brand power currently cannot support the price point of this mid-size sedan, giving a sense of being 'neither here nor there.' Additionally, this car's fuel consumption is indeed relatively high, whether it's the new or old model. High failure rate: Another factor affecting the resale value of used LaCrosse is the high failure rate per 100 vehicles. It can be observed that the failure rate of 3-5 year old LaCrosse models is quite high, especially with 31% of vehicles experiencing powertrain failures, mainly manifested as transmission fluid leaks, fluid seepage (poor sealing), unstable engine performance, sluggish response, or stalling.

How to Replace the Air Conditioning Filter in a Focus?

First, remove the protective outer cover of the fuse box to expose the air conditioning filter cover. Twist the two side switches of the air conditioning filter cover by hand to remove it, then pull out the old filter. Install the new filter and insert it back in place. Below are specific details about the Focus air conditioning filter: 1. The air conditioning filter ensures the filter frame fits tightly against the housing, preventing unfiltered air from entering the cabin. 2. The air conditioning filter separates solid impurities such as dust, pollen, and abrasive particles from the air. 3. The air conditioning filter adsorbs moisture, soot, ozone, odors, carbon oxides, SO2, CO2, and other substances from the air, maintaining long-lasting moisture adsorption.

What is the method for using diluted automotive urea solution?

The method for using diluted automotive urea solution involves a dedicated urea tank in the vehicle. The urea is added to this tank and gets consumed during vehicle operation. Below are relevant details about automotive urea: 1. Measures for non-consumption of automotive urea: If you notice that the automotive urea isn't being consumed or the vehicle's emission warning light illuminates, it may indicate the SCR system has stopped working. This issue cannot be resolved through DIY methods and requires immediate professional inspection at a 4S shop. 2. Consequences of not using automotive urea: (1) Environmental pollution - Diesel vehicles without urea treatment will cause severe ecological damage, which is also prohibited by national laws and regulations. (2) Reduced power output - This isn't a direct result of urea omission, but rather because the engine's electronic control system forcibly limits torque output when it detects no urea injection and excessive exhaust emissions.

What to Do If There Is a Gap Under the Front Windshield?

If there is a gap under the front windshield, it can be repaired using glass repair agent. Here is some relevant information about windshields: 1. Introduction: Windshields were an idea that Ford came up with in the 1920s, where two pieces of glass were sandwiched together with a layer of PVC plastic in between, creating a type of glass similar to a sandwich. This technology is still in use today. 2. Handling Breakage: If the windshield breaks while driving, it is necessary to reduce the speed and move out of the lane as soon as possible. Stay calm, avoid sudden steering wheel movements, or excessive use of the car's brakes. The driver should promptly assess the traffic situation based on the windshield breakage and apply appropriate force to the brake pedal to move the car to the roadside as quickly as possible. If there is an emergency windshield available, replacing it is naturally the best option.
