C3-16 engine oil belongs to the category of fully synthetic oil. C3 oil has a very low TBN (Total Base Number) and is an environmentally friendly type of engine oil. Below is an introduction to engine oil: 1. Introduction: Engine oil, motor oil, or engine lubricant is a substance enhanced with additives in base oil. 2. Composition: It mainly contains anti-wear additives, detergents, dispersants, and multi-grade oil viscosity index improvers. 3. Function: Engine oil is used for lubricating internal combustion engines. The main functions of engine oil are to reduce friction and wear of moving parts, and to remove sludge (one of the functions of dispersants) and varnish (detergents) from the engine. It also neutralizes acids produced from fuel and lubricant oxidation (detergents), improves the sealing of piston rings, and cools the engine by carrying away heat from moving parts.

What is the purpose of flashing the ECU in a sedan?

Flashing the ECU in a sedan can optimize parameter settings to achieve goals such as increasing horsepower output, enhancing torque, or reducing fuel consumption. Increasing horsepower and torque will correspondingly raise fuel consumption, while decreasing them will lower fuel consumption. For a car engine, the ECU is akin to the relationship between computer software and hardware. A more precise analogy would be that the car ECU is like the BIOS on a computer motherboard, capable of regulating the engine's power output values. Flashing the ECU merely optimizes the parameters of the car engine and ECU, rather than pushing the engine to operate at its limits. The optimization is conducted on the basis of ensuring service life and safety, while also maintaining an absolute safety margin, thus it does not affect the car's safety or lifespan.

What Does Vehicle Emission Standard Mean?

Vehicle emission standards refer to regulations on the content of harmful gases emitted from vehicle exhaust, including carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons, nitrogen oxides, PM particles, soot, etc. Vehicles are mobile sources of pollution, emitting primary pollutants such as carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons, nitrogen oxides, and particulate matter, all of which are environmental contaminants that need to be controlled. The sources of vehicle pollutant emissions come from the exhaust pipe, crankcase, and fuel system. To curb the generation of these harmful gases and encourage automobile manufacturers to improve their products to reduce the sources of these emissions, both Europe and the United States have established relevant vehicle emission standards. The European standards are the benchmarks that China references for its vehicle emission standards, and domestically produced new vehicles will indicate the European standard that their engine emissions comply with.
