1 Answers
The oil pressure regulating valve of Volkswagen Tiguan is located near the engine oil filter. Introduction to Engine Oil: Engine oil, also known as engine lubricant, has a density of approximately 0.91×10³ (kg/m³). It serves multiple functions in the engine, including lubrication and wear reduction, auxiliary cooling, sealing and leak prevention, rust and corrosion protection, and shock absorption. It is often referred to as the 'blood' of the car. Engine oil consists of two main components: base oil and additives. The base oil is the primary component of the lubricant, determining its basic properties, while the additives compensate for and improve the shortcomings of the base oil, providing additional performance enhancements. Additives are an essential part of the lubricant. Classification of Engine Oil: Engine oils on the market can be broadly categorized into mineral oils and synthetic oils based on their base oil (vegetable oils are not included due to their scarcity). Synthetic oils are further divided into full synthetic and semi-synthetic oils. Engine Oil Control Valve: The oil regulating valve is designed to regulate and prevent excessive pressure in the engine lubrication system. It consists of a valve body assembly and an actuator assembly (or actuator system).
