It is dangerous if the car's oil dipstick doesn't touch oil. This indicates that the oil level is too low, and it needs to be replenished promptly; otherwise, it may cause severe engine damage. Overview of Engine Oil: Engine oil, also known as engine lubricant (English name: Engine-oil), serves multiple functions for the engine, including lubrication and friction reduction, auxiliary cooling, sealing and leak prevention, rust and corrosion protection, as well as shock absorption. Composition of Engine Oil: Engine oil consists of two main components: base oil and additives. The base oil is the primary constituent of lubricants, determining their fundamental properties. Additives are used to compensate for and improve any deficiencies in the base oil's performance, as well as to provide certain new characteristics, making them an essential part of lubricants.

How to Deal with a Deformed Car Door?

Deformed car doors can be repaired through panel beating. A car door consists of the door body, door accessories, and interior trim panels. Its functions are to provide access for the driver and passengers, isolate external disturbances, and to some extent, protect occupants from side impacts. Reasons why a car door may not open include: 1. The remote key is out of battery; 2. The remote control malfunctions; 3. The door lock mechanism itself is faulty, or the door lock cable fails; 4. The door has been subjected to external force, causing deformation of the door hinges and lock pillars. Steps for soundproofing a car door are: 1. Remove the interior trim panel and clean the door surface with a cleaning agent; 2. Cut damping material to an appropriate size and paste it inside the door, then smooth it evenly with a glue scraper; 3. Cut sound-reflecting material to a suitable size and paste it on the inner panel, then smooth it evenly with a glue scraper; 4. Apply sealing material around the speakers and fixing plates; 5.
