Will the Civic be recalled for engine oil dilution?
1 Answers
Civic will be recalled for engine oil dilution. Effects of engine oil dilution: Excessive engine oil can affect the operation of the catalytic converter. Additionally, high oil pressure may cause damage to sealing components and lead to intense agitation of the crankshaft and connecting rod big end during engine operation. This not only increases internal power loss but also results in more oil splashing onto the cylinder walls, causing oil burning and exhaust emissions. Function of engine oil: The engine is the heart of a car, containing many metal surfaces that move against each other with friction. These components operate at high speeds in harsh environments, with working temperatures reaching 400 to 600 degrees Celsius. Under such extreme conditions, only qualified lubricating oil can reduce engine component wear and extend service life.
