It is normal for the car to idle high when starting in the morning during winter. Since the engine temperature is relatively low after a cold start, the sensor will increase the engine speed upon detecting the low temperature. Below are specific details about car idling: 1. Definition: When the engine runs without load, it is called idling. When the engine is running and the accelerator pedal is completely released, the engine is in an idling state. The engine speed during idling is referred to as the idle speed. 2. Function: Idling overcomes the engine's own operational resistance, maintains the minimum engine speed, and provides convenience for the driver to drive and temporarily park in various situations. For example, at traffic lights or in congested traffic areas, even for a short time, temporarily turning off the engine can bring immediate energy-saving and emission-reducing effects.

Can You Directly Add More Engine Oil If It's Low?

If the engine oil is low, you can generally top it up yourself. However, the oil you add must be of the same brand and model; mixing different types is not allowed. Additionally, oil that has been used for less than a year can be topped up, but oil that has been in use for over a year is usually ineffective and not recommended for use. Before adding oil, car owners must learn how to check if their vehicle has sufficient oil: turn off the engine and open the hood. Locate the dipstick, wipe it clean with a cloth. Reinsert the clean and dry dipstick, then pull it out after three minutes. Observe the oil level on the dipstick. Normally, the dipstick has two marks, H and L. When the oil level is between these two marks, it indicates that the oil level is sufficient, and the car can operate normally.
