5 important factors that cause engine failure!

The engine is the beating heart of your car and its proper care and maintenance is the most important part of keeping the car healthy. This elegance and of course the importance of the car engine has made the repair or replacement of this part very costly and troublesome. So we have to take necessary measures to prevent engine failure.  In this content, we examine 5 of the most important factors that cause engine failure.

 

The important factors of engine failure are:

1. Delay in changing engine oil:

The most important thing to do to protect the health of the car engine is to change the engine oil on time. Car manufacturers usually announce a certain amount of distance traveled, after which it is necessary to change the engine oil, and the delay in doing so may cause serious damage to the car engine. The timing of changing engine oil at different intervals depends on many factors, although most car manufacturers recommend that gasoline cars should change the engine oil every ten thousand kilometers, usually twice a year. But issues such as the car's performance, the type of engine oil used, and the general condition of the engine are among the things that make this time shorter or longer.

 

2. Not paying attention to oil leakage:

Some of the most common problems that can occur due to engine oil leaks include damage to rubber engine mounts, suspension system bushings, and steering system components. The reason for this is that the oil does not reach the empty space between the two parts in sufficient quantity and causes erosion and lack of smooth rotation of the parts.

 

 

3. Not paying attention to the engine oil light:

Always be aware of this important light! This light turns on when there is not enough oil in the engine or the oil pressure is too low or too high. If this light turns on, you should take the car to the repairman as soon as possible. It should be taken seriously whether the oil light turns on permanently or temporarily.

 

4. Not checking the coolant:

Cars are designed to use antifreeze as a coolant as opposed to water. Antifreeze is a chemical compound that has a lower freezing point and usually a higher boiling point than water. If your situation is such that you need to refill the cooling system fluid, buy the correct type. According to experts' advice, every 48,000 kilometers or every 3 years, it is necessary to drain the entire engine coolant and replace it with new coolant. This work keeps the engine healthy at high temperature and under high pressure. Overheating of the car engine is very dangerous and can destroy the engine.

 

5. Water entering the engine:

Crossing potholes full of water or driving during heavy rain and similar conditions can be troublesome for you. If water reaches the air intake manifold under these conditions and enters the engine, it can cause the connecting rod to tilt.
