Common automotive maintenance products include: fuel system no-disassembly cleaners, intake system no-disassembly cleaners, air conditioning system purification cleaners, three-way catalytic converter cleaners, power steering system cleaners, power steering system all-in-one protectants, transmission cleaners, transmission protectants, and other series. Below is relevant information: 1. Engine oil is the lubricating oil for engine operation: It lubricates, cleans, cools, seals, and reduces friction in the engine. It plays a significant role in reducing wear on engine components and extending their service life. 2. The oil filter is a component that filters the engine oil: Engine oil contains a certain amount of gum, impurities, moisture, and additives. During engine operation, metal shavings from component friction, impurities from the intake air, and oil oxides are all filtered by the oil filter. If the oil is not filtered and directly enters the oil circuit, it will adversely affect the engine's performance and lifespan.

As an experienced driver who has been driving for many years, I've found that there are quite a few car maintenance products that help keep the vehicle in good condition. For cleaning, there are car wash soap and waxing liquid—car wash soap removes dirt without damaging the paint, and after waxing, the paint shines like new. There's also glass cleaner, which wipes clear for better visibility, and interior cleaning spray to remove dust and odors. In terms of maintenance, changing the engine oil is the top priority—I replace the oil and filter every 5,000 kilometers to prevent engine wear. Coolant is also essential, preventing overheating in summer and freezing cracks in winter. Brake fluid levels should be checked regularly to ensure responsive and safe braking. Among performance-enhancing products, I occasionally use fuel additives to clean engine carbon deposits, improving fuel efficiency. Replacing the air filter periodically ensures smooth airflow. Other products like tire care wax and rust-proof spray extend lifespan and enhance safety. Choosing good products is a small investment that saves money on major repairs—I recommend sticking with reputable brands rather than opting for cheap alternatives.
