Solution for a car burning engine oil: It is necessary to remove the engine cylinder head and replace the valve stem seals. The main functions of engine oil are: 1. Lubrication: There is rapid relative sliding between the piston and cylinder, as well as between the main shaft and bearing shells. To prevent excessive wear of parts, an oil film needs to be established between the two sliding surfaces. A sufficiently thick oil film separates the surfaces of relatively sliding parts, thereby reducing wear. 2. Cleaning: Good engine oil can carry carbon deposits, sludge, and worn metal particles from engine parts back to the oil tank through circulation, and flush away dirt generated on the working surfaces of parts through the flow of the lubricating oil. 3. Sealing and leak prevention: Engine oil can form a sealing ring between the piston rings and the piston, reducing gas leakage and preventing external contaminants from entering.

What does regen mean in a car?

REGEN in electric vehicles refers to the regenerative braking function in operation. Here are the relevant details: 1. Regenerative braking: When the vehicle decelerates or brakes, the energy recovery braking system activates. The motor then operates as a generator, converting kinetic energy into electrical energy to recharge the battery. This process increases the vehicle's range while simulating internal combustion engine braking effects (commonly called regenerative braking). 2. Electric vehicles: These are automobiles primarily powered by batteries, using electric motors for propulsion or assistance. They include battery electric vehicles (BEVs), plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs), and fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs).

How to Deal with Spiders in the Car?

If there are spiders in the car, the following methods can be used: 1. Identify the type of spider: If it is harmless to humans (almost all spiders that weave circular webs can be caught by hand), simply catch and remove it—unless you have allergies. Using thick winter gloves is a good option. 2. Insecticide: If it is not an orb-weaving spider or does not spin webs, spraying insecticide is a good choice, as spiders are highly sensitive to it. 3. Food source: If there is no food in the car, spiders won’t stay. If spotted, simply wrap them in a tissue and remove them.

How to unbuckle the rear seat belt in the Elysion?

Align the buckle with the side socket to fasten. To release, press the red button to detach the buckle. First insert the buckle into the left socket, then insert the belt's buckle into the right socket. In the event of an emergency stop, the seat belt restrains the driver and passengers in their seats, protecting them from secondary collision injuries.

Is Cruise Control Practical?

Cruise control is quite practical on roads with less traffic or on highways, as it can reduce the driver's workload and enhance driving comfort. The cruise control system, also known as CCS, allows the car to maintain a speed set by the driver without the need to press the accelerator. Cruise control is also referred to as speed control system or autonomous driving system. Its function is to automatically maintain the vehicle's speed as set by the driver, eliminating the need to press the accelerator pedal, thus keeping the car moving at a constant speed. With this system, drivers no longer need to manually control the speed during long highway drives, reducing fatigue and unnecessary speed changes, which can also save fuel.

What to Do When Rearview and Side Mirrors Are Blurred After Rain

Electrically heated rearview mirrors work by heating through the heating wires embedded behind the mirror. The mirror surface temperature gradually rises to over 40°C to accelerate the evaporation of moisture on the mirror. Rain deflectors are suitable for use when the rain is not very heavy, but their effectiveness significantly decreases during heavy rain, only ensuring one-third clarity of the rearview mirror. When glass treated with water repellent gets wet from rain, small water droplets form round beads that can easily roll off the rearview mirror with a slight shake or breeze.
