New Focus power steering pump leaks oil because the oil pipe is loose and needs to be tightened, the power steering pump fixing screws are loose, and the gasket oil seal is aging. Reasons for loose oil pipe: The exhaust pipe and the engine are connected by a flexible connection. After long-term use of the car, the flexible connection is damaged and aged, causing the problem. The connection between the exhaust pipe and the frame is fixed by several rubber rings. The rubber rings are damaged, and the rubber aging problem occurs. There are seals between the air pipe and the flexible connection, and between the flexible connection and the engine. The seals are damaged. Reasons for aging gasket oil seal: Too long time, high temperature, oil immersion, poor quality of domestic products, etc.

What is the fuel consumption of the 2008 LaCrosse 2.4?

The 2008 LaCrosse 2.4 Comfort Edition has an average fuel consumption of 9-13L per 100 kilometers, which falls into the intermediate fuel consumption category overall. However, actual fuel consumption depends on various factors, so the specific consumption should be based on actual usage. For example, driving habits and road conditions can significantly affect fuel consumption. Below are some methods to reduce fuel consumption: 1. Check the air conditioning system in summer: Air conditioning malfunctions are a major cause of high fuel consumption. Poor cooling performance can lead to increased fan speed and lower temperature settings to achieve a cooling effect. 2. Frequent hard braking: Frequent hard braking is a primary reason for high fuel consumption. While ensuring safe driving, make full use of the vehicle's inertia. 3. Avoid excessive air conditioning in small-displacement vehicles: For vehicles exposed to the sun, avoid turning on the air conditioning immediately after entering. First, open the windows and set the fan to a higher speed without the air conditioning to expel the hot air inside. Wait until the vehicle has cooled down moderately before turning on the air conditioning.
