An actual consumption rate of 1 liter per 3,000 kilometers already exceeds the minimum limit set by national standards. Strictly speaking, this indicates the presence of oil burning phenomenon. The oil-to-fuel consumption percentage is calculated based on actual average fuel consumption. Taking a 1.8T Magotan with an average fuel consumption of 10L per 100 kilometers as an example, the permitted oil consumption is 0.03L per 100 kilometers, 0.3 liters per 1,000 kilometers, and 0.9L per 3,000 kilometers. Causes of oil burning: Normal wear: This is a natural occurrence after a vehicle has been driven for a certain mileage. Generally, vehicles experience this around 200,000 kilometers. Different vehicles, usage patterns, and regions (varying air dust content) significantly impact engine lifespan. Abnormal wear: Early abnormal wear can be caused by product quality issues or improper usage. If oil burning occurs during the warranty period, promptly contact the manufacturer's 4S store for maintenance or engine replacement. Causes of early engine wear: Using substandard engine oil, exceeding oil change intervals without replacing oil and oil filter, cold starts with wide-open throttle, prolonged operation with insufficient oil levels, extended operation under high-temperature conditions, continuous high-load high-speed operation (engine speed exceeding 4,000 RPM), prolonged operation in poor air quality (excessive dust content) without timely air filter replacement, insufficient oil pump pressure, low oil pressure, clogged oil passages, etc.

Where should the ETC be placed on the car?

ETC should be affixed to the dotted area at the top of the windshield, which is relatively close to the central rearview mirror inside the car. ETC is an electronic toll collection system. If the ETC system is installed, there is no need to stop to pay highway tolls. ETC is solar-powered, so it does not consume the car battery's electricity. When not in use, the ETC card can be removed and placed in the car. Before driving on the highway, be sure to check the tire pressure and inspect the tire surface for any damage. Tires are the only part of the car that comes into contact with the ground, and they are crucial for the vehicle's driving safety and stability.

How to Repair Scratches on the Car Dashboard Cover?

First, evenly apply the repair paste to the scratched area, making sure to work in sections—divide it into three to four parts and avoid covering the entire dashboard. Wait for 10 minutes until the repair paste dries slightly, then use a small piece of lint-free cloth to vigorously rub the area back and forth for 15 minutes. Use a larger piece of non-woven fabric to clean the dashboard surface and observe the repair effect. Repeat the above steps if necessary.
