How many kilometers can an Audi drive with one liter of engine oil?

Audi can drive about 200 kilometers with one liter of engine oil. Function of engine oil: Engine oil, also known as motor lubricant. Its density can lubricate and reduce friction in the engine, assist in cooling, seal against leaks, prevent rust and corrosion, and provide shock absorption. It is known as the "blood" of a car. Classification of engine oil: Engine oils on the market can be divided into mineral oil and synthetic oil based on their base oil. Synthetic oils are further categorized into full synthetic and semi-synthetic. Lubricant base oils are mainly divided into two categories: mineral base oil and synthetic base oil. Mineral base oil is widely used and accounts for a large proportion (about 95% or more), but some applications require products blended with synthetic base oil.

What Causes Engine Cylinder Head Gasket Failure?

The causes of engine cylinder head gasket failure are: 1. Prolonged engine operation leading to excessive temperature without proper cooling, resulting in cylinder block deformation due to overheating; 2. Uneven tightening force of screws between cylinder gasket and block during assembly; 3. Poor quality cylinder gasket with insufficient surface flatness or air bubbles and uneven edges at corners; 4. Long-term aggressive driving causing sudden excessive or insufficient cylinder pressure; 5. Neglecting regular maintenance and failing to check water levels in the radiator. Symptoms of engine cylinder head gasket failure include: 1. Overheated coolant temperature gauge exceeding the midline or reaching "H" position; 2. Severe engine vibration accompanied by knocking noises; 3. Engine stalling during operation followed by difficult ignition, or hearing boiling water sounds from the engine compartment; 4. Bubbling at radiator cap with rapid water evaporation after refill; 5. White exhaust smoke; 6. Engine oil turning into cloudy milky yellow.

How Many Liters of Differential Oil Does a BMW 3 Series Need?

BMW 3 Series requires approximately 6 liters of differential oil. Differential Introduction: The car differential is a mechanism that allows the left and right (or front and rear) drive wheels to rotate at different speeds. It mainly consists of left and right half-shaft gears, two planetary gears, and a gear carrier. Differential Function: Its purpose is to enable the left and right wheels to roll at different speeds when the car is turning or driving on uneven surfaces, ensuring that both drive wheels perform pure rolling motion. Differential Objective: The differential is installed to adjust the speed difference between the left and right wheels. In four-wheel drive systems, to drive all four wheels, they must be connected. If all four wheels are mechanically linked together, the car cannot rotate at the same speed when driving on curves. To ensure the car's rotational speed is relatively consistent during curve driving, a central differential is added to adjust the speed difference between the front and rear wheels.
