Engine oil seal leakage is not serious and is a common phenomenon. Below are the relevant details about engine maintenance: 1. Use lubricating oil of appropriate quality grade: For gasoline engines, select SD--SF grade gasoline engine oil based on the additional devices of the intake and exhaust systems and usage conditions; for diesel engines, choose CB--CD grade diesel engine oil according to mechanical load, with the selection standard being no lower than the manufacturer's specified requirements. 2. Regularly change the engine oil and filter: The quality of any grade of lubricating oil will change during use. After a certain mileage, performance deteriorates, leading to various engine problems. To avoid malfunctions, change the oil regularly based on usage conditions and maintain an appropriate oil level (generally at the upper limit of the oil dipstick). When oil passes through the fine holes of the filter, solid particles and viscous substances in the oil accumulate in the filter. If the filter becomes clogged and oil cannot pass through the filter element, it may rupture the filter element or open the safety valve, allowing oil to bypass through the bypass valve and carry contaminants back to the lubrication areas, accelerating engine wear and increasing internal contamination.

What are the three essential insurances for a car?

Here is a detailed introduction to the three essential insurances for a car: 1. Compulsory Traffic Accident Liability Insurance (CTPL): The first insurance to purchase for a car is CTPL, and the law also mandates that this insurance must be obtained when buying a car. Otherwise, new drivers cannot register their cars, and experienced drivers cannot drive on the road. Driving without CTPL can result in severe penalties. 2. Third-Party Liability Insurance: Third-Party Liability Insurance primarily covers the compensation for personal injuries or direct property damage caused to others in accidents involving the insured car. Accidents are the last thing anyone wants during driving, as they not only damage your beloved car but also require a significant amount of money to compensate others. 3. Vehicle Damage Insurance: Commonly referred to as comprehensive car insurance, this insurance differs from vehicle downtime loss insurance. It covers the losses incurred by the insured car due to natural disasters or accidents within the scope of insurance liability. However, it does not include losses caused by earthquakes.

What causes both the ABS and tire pressure lights to illuminate simultaneously?

The illumination of both the ABS and tire pressure monitoring system indicator lights indicates that the sensors in the vehicle's braking and steering systems have detected a malfunction, triggering the corresponding warning lights. A comprehensive inspection at a 4S shop is required to determine the exact cause of the vehicle's issue. Driving is not recommended when the ABS light is on: An illuminated ABS light signifies a malfunction in the vehicle's anti-lock braking system. During emergency braking, if the wheels lock up, the vehicle may skid uncontrollably, preventing the driver from decelerating or adjusting the vehicle's trajectory, which poses significant safety risks. Method to reset the tire pressure light: First, turn on the ignition switch, then press and hold the tire pressure monitoring reset button until a "beep" sound is heard before releasing. The tire pressure monitoring system will then store the current normal tire pressure data, automatically clearing the previous data. Finally, the dashboard warning light will turn off, completing the tire pressure reset process.

Should I Report to the Police if My Car Gets Scratched in the Residential Area?

If your car gets scratched while parked in a residential area, you should report it to the police. You can call the traffic police at 122 for assistance, or dial 110 to report the incident to the local police. Here are some parking tips for residential areas: 1. Park away from trees and balconies: When parking in a residential area, always be mindful to stay away from large trees and open balconies. In summer, tree sap, insect droppings, and bird droppings can corrode the car's paint and leave marks. During windy weather, flower pots, clothes racks, and other items on balconies may fall and damage the car roof, windshield, or paint. Therefore, it's best to park away from trees and balconies. 2. Avoid parking near garage doors or fire lanes: Garage doors and fire lanes in residential areas are no-parking zones, and drivers should avoid these areas when parking. To ensure unobstructed access for emergency vehicles, residential areas often have designated fire lanes, which are usually marked with special signs on both sides.
