The solution for oil leakage from the valve cover gasket of the Excelle is to replace the valve cover gasket. A damaged valve cover gasket can cause engine oil leakage, resulting in poor engine sealing, insufficient lubrication in the valve chamber, and prolonged wear of engine components, affecting the normal operation of the engine. In severe cases, it may lead to engine failure. Taking the Excelle 2020 15N Manual Elite National VI as an example: The manufacturer of this car is SAIC-GM Buick, classified as a compact car with a naturally aspirated intake form. The car's dimensions are 4468mm in length, 1765mm in width, and 1469mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2611mm, and it is a 4-door, 5-seater sedan.

What are the effects of high temperature on a car engine?

The effects on the engine are as follows: 1. Increased wear: The expansion of engine components reduces the clearance between parts, intensifying engine wear. 2. Reduced lifespan: It causes the engine oil viscosity to decrease, leading to accelerated wear of components and a shortened engine lifespan. 3. Damage to the cylinder head gasket: This may result in cross-flow between water, oil, and air passages on the gasket, causing oil to enter the radiator or water to mix with engine oil. Additional information: An engine is a machine that converts other forms of energy into mechanical energy, including internal combustion engines (reciprocating piston engines), external combustion engines (Stirling engines, steam engines, etc.), jet engines, electric motors, etc.

Will Insurance Cover Water-Damaged Cars?

Whether you can claim compensation from the insurance company for a water-damaged car depends on the following scenarios: 1. If the vehicle only has third-party liability insurance, the insurance company will not provide compensation. 2. If the vehicle has comprehensive car insurance (also known as collision insurance), you can claim compensation from the insurance company, but damages to the engine are usually not covered. 3. If the vehicle has additional water damage coverage (also known as engine protection insurance), all damages to the vehicle, including engine damage, will be covered. 4. If the driver forcibly starts the engine after the vehicle is submerged in water, causing engine damage, even with comprehensive car insurance and water damage coverage, the insurance company will not compensate for the engine damage. They will only cover repair costs for other parts of the vehicle.
