Start and turn off the vehicle three times, then start it again to observe if the warning light remains illuminated. If the warning light is still on, it is recommended to promptly visit a nearby 4S shop for repairs. Below is more information about the engine: 1. Factors: Engine thermostat, radiator fan malfunction, aging spark plugs or valve seals, severe wear of parts. 2. Effects: Abnormal exhaust smoke color, leading to poorer car exhaust quality and serious environmental pollution; increased lubricant consumption, rising engine temperature, accelerating engine wear; engine overheating, producing unusual odors.
