The effects of insufficient engine oil include: 1. Poor lubrication of various component surfaces, increasing frictional resistance and accelerating component wear, which in severe cases may lead to engine failure; 2. Increased engine noise. Automotive engine oil, also known as engine lubricating oil, serves the following purposes: 1. Lubrication and anti-wear; 2. Assisting in cooling and temperature reduction; 3. Cleaning and purification; 4. Sealing and leak prevention; 5. Rust and corrosion prevention; 6. Shock absorption and buffering. The composition of automotive engine oil consists of: 1. Base oil: The main component of lubricating oil, determining its fundamental properties; 2. Additives: These compensate for and improve any deficiencies in the base oil's performance.

Which button controls the wiper on a Mercedes-Benz car on rainy days?

The wiper of a Mercedes-Benz is integrated into the turn signal lever on the left side of the steering wheel. Due to the column shifter design of Mercedes-Benz models, the wiper switch control is integrated into the turn signal lever on the left side of the steering wheel. Wiper speed adjustment: Pushing the switch downward increases the wiper speed. Working principle: The power source of the wiper comes from the motor, which is the core of the entire wiper system. The quality requirements for the wiper motor are quite high. It uses a DC permanent magnet motor, and the wiper motor installed on the front windshield is generally integrated with the worm gear mechanical part. The function of the worm gear mechanism is to reduce speed and increase torque, and its output shaft drives the four-link mechanism, which converts continuous rotational motion into a left-right swinging motion. The wiper motor adopts a 3-brush structure to facilitate speed adjustment. The intermittent time is controlled by the intermittent relay, which uses the motor's return switch contacts and the charging-discharging function of the relay's resistor-capacitor to make the wiper sweep at a certain cycle. The wiper blade rubber is the tool that directly removes rainwater and dirt from the glass. The blade rubber is pressed against the glass surface by a spring strip, and its lip must match the angle of the glass to achieve the required performance.

Check the working condition of the engine, such as whether the pipeline connection is normal, whether there are leakage points, whether the engine sound is normal, and whether there are abnormal noises. 3. Check whether the coolant content is at a normal level. 4. Check the wear degree of brake pads and tires, as well as the tire pressure condition. 5. Check whether there are scratches or corrosion on chassis components. 6. Check the remaining amount of power steering fluid and whether there is oil leakage at each oil pipe interface. 7. Comprehensive cleaning of the vehicle, including the engine compartment, body and interior.

How Many Kilometers to Change Transmission Oil for a Car?

Car transmission oil should be changed every two years or 40,000 kilometers. Here is the relevant information: 1. The frequency of changing transmission oil varies for different car models. For manual transmission cars, the transmission oil is only used for lubrication, and the gear precision requirements for manual transmissions are not high, so slightly inferior transmission oil has little impact. 2. Automatic transmission cars have more complex transmissions with higher operational requirements. Here, the transmission oil serves more purposes than in manual transmission cars. Therefore, if the transmission oil becomes dirty and impurities increase, it will accelerate transmission wear and reduce shifting speed.
