Elysee is suitable for engine oil model 5W-30 SN grade. Elysee is a family car launched by the French car company Citroen. The word Elysee originates from Greek, representing people's highest aspiration for a better life. On September 18, 2009, the new generation Elysee CNG dual-fuel car was officially launched, pioneering CNG technology. Here is some information about engine oil: 1. Composition of engine oil: Engine oil is the lubricant used by the engine, consisting of base oil and additives. 2. Density and function of engine oil: The density of engine oil is about 0.91×10³ (kg/m³), which can lubricate and reduce wear, assist in cooling, seal and prevent leakage, prevent rust and corrosion, and absorb shock for the engine.

Must spark plugs be replaced at a 4S shop?

Spark plugs do not necessarily need to be replaced at a 4S shop; you can choose to go to an external repair shop or replace them yourself. Spark plugs are a crucial component of a gasoline engine's ignition system, which introduces high-voltage electricity into the combustion chamber, causing it to jump across the electrode gap to generate a spark and ignite the combustible mixture in the cylinder. Their components include: terminal nut, insulator, terminal stud, center electrode, side electrode, and shell. Methods to determine if spark plugs need replacement are: 1. Abnormal engine shaking during acceleration; 2. Vehicle idling shake; 3. Difficulty starting. The replacement intervals for spark plugs vary by material: 1. Nickel alloy spark plugs should be replaced approximately every 20,000 kilometers; 2. Platinum spark plugs should be replaced approximately every 40,000 kilometers; 3. Iridium spark plugs should be replaced approximately every 60,000 to 80,000 kilometers.

How Long Can Full Synthetic Engine Oil Last?

Full synthetic engine oil can last for 8,000 to 10,000 kilometers. The functions of full synthetic engine oil are: 1. Between the engine's pistons and cylinders, as well as between the main shaft and bearing shells, there is rapid relative sliding. The engine oil forms a sufficiently thick oil film between the two sliding surfaces, separating the surfaces of the relatively sliding parts to reduce wear; 2. It carries heat back to the oil tank and dissipates it into the air, helping the radiator to cool the engine; 3. It circulates carbon deposits, sludge, and worn metal particles from engine parts back to the oil tank, flushing away dirt generated on the working surfaces of the parts through the flow of the lubricating oil; 4. It provides shock absorption and cushioning when the pressure at the engine cylinder port rises sharply, suddenly increasing the load on the piston, piston skirt, connecting rod, and crankshaft bearings. The load is transmitted through the bearings, and the lubrication cushions the impact load.

Is the Automatic Transmission Subject Three Much Easier?

In terms of exam difficulty, there is no difference between manual and automatic transmission for Subject One and Subject Four theoretical tests—the items are the same. However, for the Subject Three driving test, the automatic transmission is simpler than the manual transmission because it eliminates the need for frequent gear shifting and clutch pedal operation, making it easier for beginners to learn. The content of the automatic transmission Subject Three test is introduced as follows: 1. Introduction One: The exam process for automatic transmission is the same as for manual transmission, consisting of 16 items. 2. Introduction Two: These include preparation before starting, starting off, driving straight, gear shifting operations, changing lanes, going straight through intersections, turning left at intersections, turning right at intersections, passing pedestrian crossings, passing school zones, passing bus stops, meeting other vehicles, overtaking, making U-turns, driving at night, and pulling over.
