The highest grade for diesel engine oil is CJ-4. The grades of diesel engine oil are roughly categorized as: CA, CB, CC, CD, CE, CF, CF-4, CG-4, CH-4, CI-4, CJ-4. Different models of diesel engine oil grades indicate varying oil grade levels and corresponding applicable vehicle types, meaning the further the letters are in the sequence, the higher the oil quality grade, and so on. API engine oils are divided into two categories: "S" series: The "S" series represents oils for gasoline engines, with specifications including: API SA, SB, SC, SD, SE, SF, SG, SH, SJ, SL, SM, SN. "C" series: The "C" series represents oils for diesel engines. When both "S" and "C" letters are present, it indicates that the oil is suitable for both gasoline and diesel engines. The SN grade is currently the highest grade of oil. SJ was the standard in the 1990s, SL was the standard in 2001, SM was the standard in 2004, and SN was the standard in 2010.

How to Set and Reset the Tire Pressure for All Tires?

Setting and resetting the tire pressure for all tires involves the following steps: Press and hold the tire pressure reset button for five seconds, then select and save the tire pressure using the multifunction steering wheel. Tire pressure refers to the air pressure inside the tire, which is akin to the blood pressure of a car. The level of tire pressure plays a crucial role in the performance and power of the vehicle. The hazards of overinflated tires include: 1. Reduced friction and adhesion of the tires, affecting braking performance; 2. Steering wheel vibration and deviation, leading to decreased driving comfort; 3. Accelerated wear on the central tread pattern of the tire, shortening tire lifespan; 4. Increased vehicle vibration, indirectly affecting the lifespan of other components.

What is SJ 10W-40 engine oil?

SJ is the classification of the lubricant. The further the letter is in the alphabet, the higher the classification of the current lubricant, indicating better performance in all aspects. 10W40 refers to the viscosity of the lubricant, which is an indicator of engine oil. Here is the relevant introduction: 1. Definition of engine oil: Engine oil, also known as engine lubricant, serves to lubricate and reduce friction, assist in cooling, seal against leaks, prevent rust and corrosion, and act as a shock absorber for the engine. It is often referred to as the "blood" of a car. 2. Composition of engine oil: Engine oil consists of two parts: base oil and additives. The base oil is the main component of the lubricant, determining its basic properties. Additives compensate for and improve the shortcomings of the base oil, providing certain new properties, making them an essential part of the lubricant. 3. Classification of engine oil: Engine oils on the market can be simply divided into mineral oil and synthetic oil based on their base oil (vegetable oil is not considered due to its scarcity). Synthetic oils are further divided into full synthetic and semi-synthetic. Lubricant base oils are mainly categorized into mineral base oils and synthetic base oils. Mineral base oils are widely used and account for a large volume (about 95% or more), but some applications require products blended with synthetic base oils.

What is the reason why the anti-skid light stays on and cannot be turned off?

The reasons why the anti-skid light stays on and cannot be turned off are: 1. Accidentally pressing the ESP off button; 2. Loose or faulty sensor connectors; 3. Short circuit in the wiring or related fuse blown; 4. Software issues causing poor signal transmission; 5. ABS pump failure. The vehicle anti-skid system uses ABS and ASR electronic control units to determine the wheel slip rate and vehicle driving speed by calculating and analyzing signals from the wheel speed sensors. The electronic control unit adjusts the throttle opening and brake pressure to control the wheel slip rate, preventing the vehicle from skidding during driving.

How to Deal with Clogged Small Holes in the Catalytic Converter?

The clogged small holes in the catalytic converter can be improved by cleaning. Here are the relevant details: 1. The function of the automotive catalytic converter: As the most critical component in the vehicle's exhaust purification system, the automotive catalytic converter is responsible for the catalytic reduction of harmful gases in the exhaust, such as carbon monoxide (CO), hydrocarbons (HC), and nitrogen oxides (NOx). It converts these three main harmful gases into non-toxic and harmless substances like water (H₂O), carbon dioxide (CO2), nitrogen (N2), and oxygen (O2), which are then expelled. 2. Symptoms of a clogged catalytic converter: (1) Mild clogging: The specific manifestation is a reduction in the vehicle's exhaust purification capability. (2) Moderate clogging: The specific manifestations include a continued decline in exhaust purification capability, along with increased fuel consumption, reduced engine power, and the possible illumination of the engine fault indicator light. (3) Severe clogging: When the catalytic converter is severely clogged, in addition to the above symptoms, the normal operation of the engine will be significantly affected due to the accumulation of high-temperature exhaust gases that cannot be effectively expelled. This may even lead to engine stalling. In more severe cases, the exhaust pipe may become red-hot due to high temperatures and could potentially catch fire.
