Functions of Engine Oil: Engine oil lubricates and reduces friction, assists in cooling, seals against leaks, prevents rust and corrosion, and acts as a shock absorber. It is often referred to as the 'blood' of a car. Choosing the right oil and changing it regularly can maintain the engine in good condition and extend its lifespan. Choosing Engine Oil: When selecting engine oil, the most expensive option isn't necessarily the best. Instead, the choice should be based on the characteristics of the car's engine and the driver's habits. Engine oil can also be categorized based on seasonal use—winter and summer.

What are the mandatory insurances for a new car in the first year?

For a new car in its first year, compulsory insurances include compulsory traffic insurance, third-party liability insurance, vehicle damage insurance, scratch insurance, and no-deductible insurance among other commercial auto insurances. Below are the relevant introductions: 1. During vehicle use: Whether it's a new or old car, there are risks involved in driving. Commercial insurance serves as a supplement to compulsory traffic insurance. Relying solely on compulsory traffic insurance is not wise, as accidents can result in substantial costs. To mitigate risks, it is recommended that car owners consider their needs and usage environment to decide whether to purchase certain types of insurance. 2. Vehicle damage insurance: This insurance covers the policyholder in the event of a traffic accident that causes damage to the vehicle, with the insurance company providing compensation within a reasonable range. Third-party liability insurance provides compensation for injuries to others or damage to others' property caused during driving, as agreed upon by the insurance company.

What is the lifespan of an engine after being repaired from water damage?

An engine repaired after water damage can generally last 4-5 years without issues. Detailed explanation as follows: 1. When the damage is minor: The repaired engine's lifespan depends on the extent of damage. If the engine only had water ingress without structural damage, simply removing the spark plugs to drain water and replacing the engine oil and coolant will suffice. This won't affect the engine itself, maintaining a normal vehicle lifespan. 2. When the damage is severe: If water entered the cylinders along with the engine, it becomes complicated. Cylinder water ingress can bend connecting rods, potentially even breaking them and damaging the engine block. In such cases, it's hard to predict reliability as it requires engine disassembly to replace connecting rods or even the block. Post-repair usability becomes uncertain, depending on repair quality and replacement part quality. Though thorough repairs can restore normal function, substandard parts or poor workmanship may lead to future operational issues.

Which is faster, Lamborghini or RS7?

RS7 has a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 3.6 seconds in stock configuration, while Lamborghini achieves 3.3 seconds in stock configuration, making the Lamborghini slightly faster. Here are the relevant details: 1. Power differences: The RS7 is equipped with a 4.0T V8 engine producing a maximum of 600 horsepower, whereas the Lamborghini features a 5.2L V10 engine with a maximum output of 610 horsepower. The RS7 uses a ZF 8AT transmission, which is indeed outstanding, while the Lamborghini employs a seven-speed wet dual-clutch transmission. In terms of inherent transmission structure, AT transmissions are not as quick as dual-clutch transmissions when it comes to gear shifting. 2. Exterior design differences: The RS7 is a coupe, while the Lamborghini is a sports car. In terms of weight alone, the RS7 weighs 2.16 tons, whereas the Lamborghini is only 1.4 tons.

How Long Does It Take for Electrical Circuit Failures to Appear in Flood-Damaged Vehicles?

If the flood-damaged vehicle has not been submerged too deeply, there is no need to worry excessively. However, if the submersion is deep, do not start the car, as this can quickly cause damage. Below are some key points about flood-damaged vehicles: 1. Severity: The severity of a flood-damaged vehicle depends on the height of the water submersion and whether the vehicle was started while submerged. 2. Below the Seats: If the water only reached below the seats, this height is still below the vehicle's air intake, as well as the fuse box and dashboard. After thorough cleaning, the impact on the vehicle is relatively minor. 3. Cleaning: During the cleaning process, it is necessary to replace the transmission fluid, engine oil, and brake fluid, as well as perform maintenance on the vehicle's braking system, exhaust pipe, and catalytic converter. This can further reduce the long-term effects of water damage on the vehicle's performance.
