SL oil is not fully synthetic oil, it is semi-synthetic oil. The introduction of the replacement cycle and shelf life of semi-synthetic oil is as follows: Replacement cycle of semi-synthetic oil: In most cities in China, semi-synthetic oil can be replaced every 7,500 kilometers or 9 months. If there is too much dust in the air, the temperature is very low (-20 degrees Celsius), or the car is driven short distances for a long time (each trip is within 8 kilometers), it is recommended to increase the oil change frequency to 5,000 kilometers or half a year. Shelf life of semi-synthetic oil: The state clearly stipulates that the shelf life of oil under sealed conditions is basically within 5 years, and the shelf life of semi-synthetic oil is also within this range. However, semi-synthetic oil that has been opened will deteriorate faster, so it is best to use it within half a year. Of course, how long semi-synthetic oil takes to deteriorate also depends on the storage environment. The greater the temperature difference and humidity, the faster the oil deteriorates.

What are the reasons for the engine failure displayed on the screen?

The reasons for engine failure are as follows: 1. Lack of regular maintenance: According to professional auto repair operators, about 50% of vehicle failures are caused by poor engine maintenance. 2. Deterioration of engine oil: The quality of lubricating oils of different grades changes during use. After a certain mileage, the performance of the oil deteriorates, so it is necessary to change the engine oil regularly. 3. Clogged air filter: The engine's intake system mainly consists of the air filter and the intake duct. Depending on usage, the air filter should be cleaned regularly. 4. Dirty intake ducts: If the vehicle frequently operates in areas with high dust and poor air quality, it is important to clean the intake ducts to ensure smooth airflow.

Should You Press the Clutch or Brake First When Braking in a Manual Transmission Car?

When braking in a manual transmission car, you should press the brake first. Press the clutch pedal when the speed decreases and is about to stop, to prevent the engine from stalling. In emergency situations requiring an immediate stop, press both the clutch and brake simultaneously. In such cases, it's advisable to use intermittent braking (pump the brakes), where higher and longer frequency of pressing is more effective in preventing rollovers. The correct sequence for stopping a manual transmission car: 1. Turn on the right or left turn signal; 2. Lightly press the brake to reduce speed and observe the right rearview mirror while driving to the right; 3. Press the clutch pedal when the speed is relatively low, paying attention to the surrounding distance when stopping; 4. After the car comes to a complete stop, shift to neutral, turn off the turn signal, engage the handbrake, and turn off the engine.

What are the reasons for the engine not accelerating?

Here are the reasons why the engine oil cannot be added: 1. Fuel line blockage, check whether the fuel filter is blocked, whether the fuel pump pressure is sufficient, and whether the fuel injector is blocked. 2. Exhaust system blockage, check whether the three-way catalytic converter and the entire exhaust pipe are blocked. 3. Excessive carbon deposits on the throttle, idle position sensor, and air flow meter damage. Here are the precautions when adding oil to the car engine: 1. When the vehicle is driving normally, do not place your foot on the clutch pedal. 2. When driving, do not use the semi-linked clutch. In special cases where semi-linking is required, the semi-linking time should be minimized to prevent burning the clutch friction plate.

What is the difference between six-seater and seven-seater vehicles?

The main difference between six-seater and seven-seater vehicles lies in the annual inspection schedule. The key distinctions are as follows: 1. For sedans with 7 seats or more, the policy remains to conduct an inspection every 2 years. 2. Small passenger vehicles with 6 seats or fewer are exempt from on-site inspections for the first 6 years. 3. Vehicles involved in traffic accidents do not qualify for this exemption and still need to collect the annual inspection sticker from the vehicle management office every 2 years, though they are exempt from the on-site inspection. Only private vehicles with a rated seating capacity of 6 people or fewer are eligible for the inspection exemption policy. Additionally, these vehicles must be non-commercial in nature, whereas most vehicles with 7 seats or more are often used for commercial purposes. Drivers of 7-seater vehicles that have not undergone the annual inspection will not be able to complete the annual review and may face penalties as a result.
