Ford's dedicated engine oil is supplied by two major brands: Shell and Mobil. The Ford-specific engine oil is processed by Shell, and at authorized 4S dealerships, Changan Ford specifies two types of lubricants: SM-grade 5W30 semi-synthetic oil (Super 2000) and SM-grade 5W30 full synthetic oil (Mobil 1 Silver). Below is more related information: Different Ford models use different types of engine oil: Not all Ford models use 5W20 engine oil. 5W20 oil is only used for some models with small-displacement naturally aspirated engines, as it can better reduce fuel consumption and improve power. The 20-grade oil has lower viscosity and better fluidity, which can reduce the resistance encountered during engine operation. Some models also use 5W30 engine oil.

What happens if you drive with the handbrake on?

Driving a short distance with the handbrake on is generally not a problem, but over longer distances, it can cause wear on the brake pads, increased fuel consumption, and other issues. The direct effects include accelerated wear of the brake discs, hardening of the brake pads due to overheating, and elongation of the handbrake cable, all of which can reduce braking performance. The burnt smell you sometimes notice comes from this. Driving with the handbrake on may also lead to the brake calipers seizing, brake fluid leakage, or excessively high brake fluid temperatures, resulting in a complete loss of braking function. If you encounter a situation where you are driving with the handbrake engaged and notice a strong burnt smell or smoke coming from the rear of the vehicle, you should immediately slow down, apply the brakes, and release the handbrake. Do not continue driving; instead, pull over to the side of the road and wait for the vehicle to cool down.

What are the drawbacks of vehicle ambient lighting?

Drawbacks of vehicle ambient lighting: 1. Impacts driving safety; 2. Increases additional power consumption, affecting car battery lifespan; 3. May blow fuses when external power consumption is excessive. Vehicle ambient lighting serves as decorative illumination, typically in red, blue, green, etc., mainly to enhance the cabin atmosphere at night. When driving at night with cabin lights on, the windshield acts like a mirror, reflecting cabin light into the driver's eyes, making it difficult to see darker road conditions ahead and increasing accident risks.
