It might be an issue with the oil-gas separator. Here are the reasons why a Volkswagen car burns engine oil severely: Problems with the cylinder and piston rings: Use a cylinder pressure gauge to check the cylinder pressure. If the cylinder pressure is particularly low, it could indicate a problem with that cylinder. Whether the turbocharger has an oil leak: A damaged turbocharger could also cause engine oil burning and reduced power, leading to higher fuel consumption. Another possibility is the valve stem seals and guides. If these parts are damaged, they can cause severe engine oil burning. The exact issue needs to be carefully inspected. A Volkswagen is still a car, and engine oil burning can be fixed.

How to Check Gasoline Vehicle Emission Standards?

There are several ways to check a vehicle's emission standards: 1. Environmental Label: The simplest and most direct method is to look at the vehicle's environmental label, which has clear markings on the back. 2. Website Inquiry: Log in to the Motor Vehicle Exhaust Pollution Supervision and Management Center website to check. 3. DMV Inquiry: Bring the motor vehicle registration certificate (original or copy) to the DMV for inquiry. 4. Vehicle Factory Certificate: For new cars, you can check the vehicle factory certificate and look for the information inside. However, generally, the vehicle's certificate is kept at the DMV. Therefore, when buying a new car, you can make a copy for future use.

What is the relationship between a car's fuel consumption and its engine displacement?

Engine displacement affects fuel consumption, but it is not the decisive factor. Generally speaking, the larger the displacement, the higher the fuel consumption per 100 kilometers. However, a high fuel consumption does not necessarily mean a large displacement. In a relative sense, the size of a car's engine displacement does not form a direct proportional relationship with fuel consumption. In addition to engine displacement, factors such as the car's shape, weight, and engine technology are also important factors affecting fuel consumption. More details are as follows: 1. General situation: Generally speaking, the larger the displacement, the higher the fuel consumption per 100 kilometers. However, there cannot be a formula between the two, at least the driver's control cannot be formulated. 2. Factors that can serve as relatively significant references for fuel consumption: displacement; curb weight; gross vehicle weight; actual engine operating conditions (speed, output torque); road conditions can be reflected through the engine's real-time parameters.

How Many Years After Getting a Driver's License Can You Drive on the Highway?

You can drive on the highway immediately after obtaining your driver's license if accompanied by a more experienced driver; however, you must wait one year to drive alone on the highway. Below are precautions for driving during the probationary period: 1. Failing to display a "probationary sign" will result in a 200 RMB fine: According to Article 64, Paragraph 3 of "Order No. 123," when driving a motor vehicle during the probationary period, a standardized probationary sign must be affixed or hung at the rear of the vehicle. Traffic police remind that probationary drivers who fail to display the probationary sign at the rear of the vehicle will be considered non-compliant and fined 200 RMB. 2. Accumulating 12 penalty points during the probationary period will revoke the license: Article 69 of "Order No. 123" states that if a motor vehicle driver accumulates 12 penalty points during the probationary period, their driving qualification for the probationary vehicle type will be revoked. If the revoked qualification does not pertain to the highest permitted vehicle type, the driving qualification for the highest permitted vehicle type will also be revoked.

Why does the car air conditioner make a hissing sound when the AC is turned on?

The reasons why the car air conditioner makes a hissing sound when the AC is turned on include: belt slippage, air conditioning compressor failure, or foreign objects in the air duct. More detailed information is as follows: 1. Belt slippage: The air conditioning compressor is driven by the engine crankshaft via a belt. If the belt becomes loose, aged, severely worn, or if the tensioner pulley lacks sufficient tension, it can cause the belt to slip, resulting in a hissing noise. Solution: If the belt slippage is caused by the belt itself, simply replace the belt. If the issue lies with the tensioner pulley, then the tensioner pulley needs to be replaced. 2. Air conditioning compressor failure: When the AC switch is turned on, the air conditioning compressor starts operating. If the compressor is damaged, it may produce a hissing noise. In this case, it is recommended to visit a 4S shop for direct replacement or repair. 3. Foreign objects in the air duct: If there are foreign objects in the air conditioning system's air duct, these objects may rotate repeatedly with the blower's airflow and collide with the air filter, causing a hissing sound. In this situation, you can remove the air filter and carefully inspect and clean any foreign objects in the air duct.

What happens if too much engine oil is added?

Here is the relevant introduction about excessive engine oil: 1. Oil burning fault: Excessive engine oil causes intense agitation of engine components during operation, which not only increases internal power loss but also leads to more oil splashing onto the cylinder walls, resulting in oil burning faults. 2. Power reduction: It creates significant resistance to the high-speed rotating crankshaft connecting rod mechanism, leading to decreased power output. 3. Catalytic converter poisoning: Increased oil entering the combustion chamber worsens exhaust emissions. In severe cases, it may cause catalytic converter poisoning and damage. 4. Increased fuel consumption: It raises vehicle driving fuel consumption and causes oil burning.
