What are the effects of oil emulsification on a car?
1 Answers
After oil emulsification, the performance of the oil will decline, leading to poor engine lubrication and accelerated wear of various components. Emulsified oil contains excessive water and produces more harmful substances, which can corrode engine components. After oil emulsification, the engine noise will increase, and it may cause the engine fault light to illuminate. If the oil is emulsified, the first step is to check whether it is caused by coolant entering the oil, whether it is due to damage to the oil cooler allowing liquid to enter the oil, and whether there is any problem with the crankcase ventilation valve. Check if there is a gasoline smell in the oil. If any of the above components are faulty, the damaged parts need to be replaced first, then the engine lubrication system should be cleaned to remove all emulsified oil, and finally, new oil should be replaced. Solutions for oil emulsification: If a new car experiences oil emulsification, it is necessary to go to the 4S store immediately for inspection to determine the cause of the emulsification. If the cause cannot be found, it needs to be reported to the manufacturer. If an older car has this problem, it is necessary to check whether any engine components are damaged and replace the damaged parts accordingly.
