§ten. Severe operating conditions

According to statistics, many motorists have a wrong concept associated with the term difficult conditions exploitation. If you do not go into the chemistry and physics of the processes that take place in the car system in detail, you can see different modes of operation. They take into account product quality, driving mode, weather, etc. But what exactly is meant by "difficult conditions"? For example, a prolonged downtime of a car, or irregular use. After all, it is not for nothing that they say that the car must always go. Everything is said correctly. If you do not start the engine for a long time, especially in winter, then in the future it will be necessary to pay more attention to its diagnostics, as breakdowns may occur. And compared to the engine that is used every day, it will last less.

This is due to condensation that can form inside the engine system during a long break in use. When mixed with fuel, condensate is similar to acid, which corrodes the inside of the engine. So if, when buying a used car, they say that they almost never drove by car, then you should be careful. But often this is not true in order to sell a car as "new", and you shouldn't worry too much. Daily short journeys will shorten engine life. So when driving to and from work, the distance can be short, and driving on an unheated engine also leads to condensation. This is especially important in winter.

Therefore, it is recommended to stand at idle for a couple of minutes before starting movement, if it is winter time, it is better to warm up the engine longer. The "start-stop" mode in traffic jams also makes operation more difficult. Since a significant load on the engine is running during the start of the movement, jerking in place will not lead to anything good, but due to the large amount vehicle on the roads, you can't get away from it. A bad influence on the car goes due to the fact that at these moments the oil heats up more and loses its properties more intensively. Also, when idle, the cooling system does not work well, which leads to heating of the oil. Driving with a heavy load is undesirable; such driving is considered to be driving on bumpy terrain, towing, frequent driving under full load. All this entails a high load on the engine, and, accordingly, oil oxidation and thickening. Frequent driving in muddy terrain leads to increased vehicle wear. These include places with dusty air or dirty roads. You can see that going out into the street in clean shoes, upon coming home, they will be in a layer of dust, although not much, but they will be. In order for this not to be necessary to regularly wash the streets, but we have no one doing this.

Car manufacturers make cars with a view to clean streets, and, of course, the oil change interval is calculated based on driving on clean streets. This dust contaminates not only the oil, but also other parts of the car that require replacement or cleaning. Also, following the example of clean streets, can often be seen in service bookthat the filter is changed every 60,000 km. Poor quality fuel and oil reduces the service life of the car. It is clear that if these components are not of high quality, then unburned particles will settle in engine compartments, cylinders, and all this reduces the efficiency of work. All modern engine are designed for high-quality fuel, but no one knows what is added and what is diluted in the hope of earning more money. An express oil change does not lead to anything good. With such a replacement, a considerable part of the used oil may remain in the engine. Also, as a result of work, a sediment forms at the bottom of the pallet, which cannot be easily removed. If you carry out such an oil change, then it is better to carry out a traditional oil change soon.

The roof is in very difficult operating conditions, since it is exposed to atmospheric factors for a long time. Uneven settlements, temperature deformations, creep and shrinkage phenomena of reinforced concrete flooring have a harmful effect on the strength and water resistance of the roof. In industrial areas, in addition, chemically aggressive substances contained in the atmosphere and in the first minutes of rain form weak concentrations of acids and alkalis, have a destructive effect on the roof. In particularly unfavorable operating conditions, the roofs of hot workshops are exposed not only to excessive heating, but also to significant dynamic effects from overhead cranes with rigid suspension of working equipment (rolling, stripping shops, etc.).

The above allows us to conclude that when choosing a material and roof structure, in addition to the physical and chemical properties of the material and the construction area, it is necessary to take into account the specifics and microclimate of production.

The roofing material must have a low weight, be durable, allow the smallest slope of the coating, simplicity of installation and repair, meet the requirements of deformability and fire resistance.

Roofs are divided into roll, asphalt rollless, asbestos-cement and metal.

Roll roofs meet many of the requirements noted above and allow you to arrange coverage with a zero slope. The materials used for roll roofs include izol, brizol, polyethylene film, roofing felt, glassine, roofing felt, waterproofing, tar-bitumen and gudrokamovye materials, roofing fiberglass and fiberglass.

Depending on the slope, rolled roofs of industrial buildings can be flat (slope<2,5%) и скатные (уклон ≥ 2,5%). Наибольшие уклоны скатов при рулонных кровлях не должны превышать 25%.

In order to ensure water tightness, the roofs are arranged from several layers, the number of which is assigned based on the slope:

at i ≥ 15% - two-layer without a protective layer;
at i ≥ 10% - three-layer without a protective layer;
at 2.5 ≤ i< 10% - трехслойные с защитным слоем;
for 0 ≤ i< 2,5% -четырехслойные (и более) с защитным слоем.

Rolled roofs with more than four layers are used in operating coatings or in those areas of the coating where technological equipment is installed and passages are provided.

Sticking of roll materials is made with bitumen, tar and other mastics, depending on the material of the roof. When assigning the heat resistance of mastic, it is necessary to take into account that on clear summer days, the roofing carpet can heat up to 70-80 °, and in the coatings of hot workshops up to 100 ° and higher. In case of insufficient heat resistance, the mastic softens and flows down the slope. This causes a breakdown in the seams of the carpet, the formation of folds from slipping of the panels, changes the physicochemical properties of the mastic (volatilization of light fractions of mastic oils), clogs the vents and funnels of the internal drain. Mastics with excessive heat resistance are undesirable, since they have increased fragility at low temperatures.

Cloths of rolled materials with slopes of up to 15% are placed parallel, and with slopes of more than 15% - perpendicular to the ridge. The amount of overlap of panels on each other is taken: in width - in the lower layers of 50-70 mm. and in the upper 70-100 mm, along the length - in all layers at least 100 mm.

Experiencing significant heating and large daily (up to 60-70 °) and annual (up to 100 °) temperature fluctuations, the roof undergoes significant alternating deformations, which often leads to rupture of the carpet and disruption of its adhesion to the base. In order to reduce the harmful effects of atmospheric influences and to protect against direct mechanical damage, a protective (armor) layer is arranged over roll roofs with a slope of less than 10%. It is made of light-colored gravel with a grain size of 5-15 mm or mica chips. The connection of the layer with the roof is carried out with the same mastic that is used for gluing the waterproof carpet. Sometimes the protective layer is made of concrete or other slabs laid on a sandy layer.

You can reduce the heating of the roof by painting it in a light tone (for example, lime or aluminum paint). However, roof coloring is short-lived, especially in areas with a polluted atmosphere; more durable and reliable roofing material, covered from the outside with aluminum foil, which reflects most of the sun's rays.

In the places where the rolled roofs are adjacent to the protruding elements (parapets, pediments, lanterns, etc.), as well as in areas and cornices, additional layers of waterproofing carpet (2-4 layers) are provided.

The roofing carpet, oiled with mastic, is put on protruding elements, attached to them with nails or dowels, and the joint is protected with a grease or upholstered with roofing galvanized steel. On the valleys of all pitched coverings, a protective gravel or mica layer must be laid (Fig. 80).

Rolled roofs in foreign industrial construction with a variety of design solutions do not fundamentally differ from ours. Most roofs are arranged with air spaces connected to the outside air along the eaves and at the ridge and with a protective layer of sand, gravel and slag. Wood flooring is also used abroad, although steel and reinforced concrete floorings are mainly common. Flat roofs in the United States are often used to house auxiliary equipment, household superstructures, and the like.

Roll-free mastic (asphalt) roofs save scarce roll materials. They have a simple design, are durable, cheaper than rolled by 20-40% and less laborious (1.3-1.6 times). Such roofs are more applicable for roofs that are exposed to mechanical stress (with frequent renovations, cleaning) and the risk of ignition from sparks and hot gases.
Mastic roofs are used with the same slopes as roll ones. In coatings with a zero slope, mastics may have reduced heat resistance. In this case, the roof is "self-healing", since irregularities, cracks and other damages formed in the cold season are leveled, filling with softened mastic in hot weather.

For roll-free roofs, rubber-bitumen, asphalt, emulsion and bitumen-latex mastics are used.

The surfaces of the leveling layers for mastic roofs, made of cement-sand mortar, asphalt, asphalt concrete, hard fibreboard and other slabs, are covered with a primer solution of a bitumen binder in a solvent, a bitumen-latex emulsion, etc.

A waterproofing carpet for a mastic roof consists of several layers (2-5), depending on the slope of the coating, reinforcing gaskets (fiberglass, fiberglass mesh, burlap, etc.) and a protective layer made of asphalt or cement slabs, sand, gravel or slag (Fig. 80, e). The thickness of the individual mastic layers depends on the waterproofing properties of the mastic used, and it is taken from 2 to 6 mm.

Figure: 80. Details of coatings with roll (a-d), asphalt (e) and water-filled (f) roofs:
a - adjoining the roof to the parapet; b - average valley; c - adjoining the roof to the pediment with a flat roof; g - the same with pitched; d - insulated asphalt roof; e - water-filled roof: 1 - wall; 2 - plate; 3 - the main carpet; 4 - additional layers; 5 - protective layer; 6 - funnel; 7 - cement mortar; 8 - galvanized steel; 9 - dowel "through 500; 10 - crutches after 500; 11 - steel strip 40X3; 12 - Isol mastic; 13 - mastic layers; 14 - vapor barrier; 15 - insulation; 16 - water layer

In recent years, they began to introduce mastic roofs made of polymeric synthetic materials: PVC, vinyl, neoprene and others with the addition of plasticizers, stabilizers, solvents and other components. These roofs are applied by spraying. They have high waterproofing properties, weather-resistant, frost-resistant and elastic.

Asbestos-cement roofs used in our country were considered earlier (see Fig. 73). Here we will point out some of the features of the device of these roofs in foreign construction. The asbestos-cement sheets produced by firms are not divided into industrial and civil. Their length ranges from 1220-3600 mm, their width does not exceed 1000 mm, their thickness is 5.5-8.7 mm, and the wave height is 30-60 mm.

Along with unpainted asbestos-cement sheets with various colored surfaces are produced. For example, in England, brown, red, blue, green leaves (7-8 colors and shades) are produced. In the USA, sheets are usually covered with a thin waterproof layer of bitumen emulsion or paraffin, and they are also hydrophobized with organic silicon compounds that ensure complete water resistance of asbestos cement. Semi-wavy and folded sheets are also used, sheets of "cascade" type, allowing to reduce the slope of the coating to 1: 12. In some cases, the sheets are reinforced with steel mesh. The fastening of the sheets to the girders is carried out mainly with screws and bolts, and their heads protruding above the surface of the sheets are closed with anti-corrosion caps.

Metal roofs in industrial construction are still used to a limited extent. The most promising roofs are made of aluminum sheets, which do not corrode and, due to their high reflectivity, resist temperature changes well, have a low weight (3 times lighter than asbestos-cement and 20 times lighter than reinforced concrete coatings).

The domestic industry produces flat and corrugated aluminum sheets. Flat sheets are 2000 to 4000 mm long, 400 to 2000 mm wide and 0.3 to 10 mm thick. Corrugated sheets are made up to 6000 in length, up to 1500 in width, 50-100 wave height and 0.8-1.2 mm thick. Steel sheets have the following dimensions: flat - length 710-4000, width 510-1500 and thickness 0.25-4 mm; wavy - length 1420-2000, width 710-1000 and thickness 1-1.75 mm.

Metal sheets are attached to the purlins in the same ways as asbestos-cement. In order to avoid electrochemical corrosion in the places of contact of aluminum sheets with steel purlins, the latter are coated with a special primer or pasted over with a cloth impregnated with this protective material.

But I could not find it anywhere at a normal price. Or it was not in stock. I am very glad that I turned to you. I called back, asked if there was glue in stock, if there was a delivery. The managers answered all the questions and said that the material was in stock in the required quantity, after which it was delivered directly to me. Thank you for the high quality material and first class service. Now I will always refer only to you.

Igor Gorelov

I am a foreman and our construction team is constantly laying marble tiles on walls and floors. For work we use quick-mix MK 900 marble glue (white). For a long time we worked with one supplier, but in the end he stopped working in the city and had to look for an alternative. We found you and do not regret it. At first, we took a little material purely for testing, the quality is on the level. Then we have already ordered for the whole object. The glue is durable, easy to use and dries quickly - just what we need. So we will be applying for new shipments shortly. I was definitely pleased with the fast delivery and quality service. Thanks!

Semyon Lukyanenko

I myself am engaged in the construction of houses, so I am quite good at choosing materials. And not all of what sellers offer today really deserves attention. This time I needed to buy polystyrene foam glue, front glass nets and dowels. I was looking for something suitable for a long time until I came to your site. Everything you need is there, the price is good, the quality of service is excellent. Especially the speed of delivery. I was advised the options for choosing the material, calculated the required amount, delivered exactly on time, as indicated in the contract.

Ivan Artamonov

Our company is engaged in the installation of industrial floors in Moscow (for increased loads). Accordingly, the quality of the materials we use must always be at the highest level.

I am engaged in laying walls from facing bricks. It was necessary to buy Quick-mix LHM mortar for bricks. I have been looking, I confess, for a long time. And at first I didn't even know for sure whether I needed this solution. It's good that I got to your office. They showed samples here, advised what is best to choose and made a calculation of the required amount. After payment was delivered on the same day. The provided material is inexpensive and of high quality. Great for laying bricks on your own, even without special building skills. Yes, and I liked working with you. You are real pros.

Our small company is engaged in the insulation of facades in high-rise buildings. We bought glue for expanded polystyrene, bark beetle facade mineral plaster. All materials are of the highest quality, and the price is more than democratic, which is definitely pleasing. We have been working for the second year and mainly try to find inexpensive, but high-quality material. Here it turned out to be just such. We called, ordered, used delivery to our warehouse. Everything is very convenient. Delivery is generally inexpensive, and deliveries are strictly on schedule. Great job! We will cooperate.

When determining the engine oil change intervals, we are guided by the manual.

The engine oil change interval is always negotiated by the manufacturer of your car in the manual (manual) or in the service bulletin (Service bulletin). As a rule, the manufacturer indicates the engine oil change interval in kilometers (or in miles). There are also restrictions in the time period - 3 months -6 months - 1 year. The car can stand in the garage all winter and not go out on the road, and the oil in the engine will still lose its original properties - that is why the manufacturers have introduced a time limit. It is impossible to conclude "I roll very little on the run, so I will change the oil every 2 years."

It is not right to decide for yourself how often you change the oil, not based on the manufacturer's recommendations! Only the manufacturer of your car, who designed and built your car, knows better at what change interval do you need to change the oil! The car manual is a kind of bible, when making decisions, you should always look back at this document. Remember, your car has been designed and created by thousands of engineers and specialists, they have already calculated and tested everything for us - no need to consider yourself smarter than VW or Toyota and reinvent the wheel. It is necessary to adhere to the manufacturer's recommendations as much as possible!

Rely on the manufacturer, but don't make a mistake yourself ...

But the manufacturer also needs to be able to interpret correctly! Recently, manufacturers have begun to increase the engine oil change intervals. For the sake of economy, ecology, limiting legislative acts in some countries, oil change intervals have significantly increased 30,000 km, 50,000 km, etc.

There are special "long life" oils for extended service intervals "LongLife" oil. But these oils can only be poured at extended drain intervals into engines that are suitable for this! It is impossible to conclude "If I fill in Longlife oil in VAZ Kalina, then I can not change the oil 30,000 km." Kalina's engine will kill such oil much faster!

Extended oil change intervals are relevant for countries with a "mild" climate, good fuel quality, clean roads, high-quality oils, timely maintenance. In severe operating conditions of the car - such prolonged change intervals can lead to premature aging of the engine oil and engine wear!

For example, when you try to start the engine at -30C, fill the crankcase with gasoline and eventually do not start, the oil liquefies, under the influence of gasoline it loses its properties, and the manufacturer does not take this into account. You can skate 30,000 km on such spoiled oil and then guess where the wear comes from.

Example: In the list of approved Longlife-04 oils, BMW writes:

The use of Longlife-04 oils in gasoline engines is only permitted in European countries (EC plus Switzerland, Norway and Liechtenstein). Outside this region, their use is prohibited due to the often questionable fuel quality.

Link to white paper: BMW Longlife-04 approved oils. That is, these oils are not suitable for Russian conditions, taking into account the extended drain intervals!

What is harsh operating conditions?

Severe operating conditions include:

  1. Poor fuel quality. Fuel never burns out completely. When fuel is burned in the engine, combustion products are formed - ash, soot, tar, sulfur, etc. Deposits form on the inner walls of the engine - carbon deposits, sludge, varnish, etc. The worse the quality of the fuel, the more deposits and unwanted combustion products. Engine oil depletes faster! Russian oil was already initially considered to be of lower quality due to the high content of sulfur, as well as heavy and cyclic hydrocarbons. To this must be added the peculiarities of the "Russian business" and the absence of strict control over the production and sale of fuel. Fuel quality is constantly leaping from filling to filling. Production of gasoline from 76th to 92nd by adding additives. Water condensation, sand, dirt in storage and transport tanks, etc. All this affects the life of the engine oil! Therefore, at least somehow you can save yourself from these negative factors only by refueling at proven gas stationsand frequent oil change intervals! It is the frequent oil changes that help remove unwanted products from the engine, neutralize sulfur from burnt fuel, slow down oxidative processes, etc. No LongLife or PAO synthetic oils with long drain intervals can miraculously remove all of this from the engine.
  2. Short trips... On short trips over short distances, the engine does not have time to warm up. The engine oil does not have time to reach operating temperature. Additives that neutralize fuel combustion products work slower due to the slowdown of chemical processes in an unheated engine. Low temperature deposits form, clogging filter elements and impairing oil circulation in the lubrication system. The operation of the engine in the mode "started - drove 5 km - turned off" leads to the transformation of condensate formed on the inner walls into water. Water in oil leads to oil flooding - premature aging of the engine oil.
  3. Dusty roads, or roads that are treated with anti-icing agents. The air filter does not catch all of the dust particles - a small amount still gets into the engine. It is also not uncommon for unfiltered air to enter the engine, through a filter of poor quality, abnormal air intake (cracked air hose, gasket stiffened), etc. When the engine is operated in dusty conditions, dust particles accumulated during engine operation cause abrasive wear of parts and reduce the antiwear properties of the oil. In simple terms, dust and sand fall into the cylinder-piston group and, of course, this does not bring anything good.
  4. Traffic jams, long trips at low speeds, long idle idle. Constant acceleration and deceleration in traffic jams load the engine the most, the oil works faster. At idle speed (XX), the oil pressure in the system is several times lower than at full speed - oil flows to the engine components not as well as it happens at full speed along the highway. This also happens on long low-speed journeys. For example, on a dirt road "where you can't really accelerate." The engine is under heavy load and the engine oil is not supplied abundantly. The engine at idle speed (XX) is poorly washed with oil, as a result of which rings can again become embedded, deposits on the walls of the engine can accumulate. The car owner at this time calmly looks at the odometer, where the cherished 15,000 km has not yet come and convinces himself that "everything is fine!"
  5. Operation in extremely high or extremely low ambient temperatures. When operating a car in summer heat, the engine is exposed to high temperatures, the oil heats up, and therefore the oil film becomes thinner, the friction coefficient increases, and the oil film on the surface of the friction pairs may break. If we add to this the towing of a trailer, and even high speeds on the highway, we get a very tough mode. Remember yourself, on a trip to the South, during the holidays - we will load with the whole family, pick up a trailer and "spar" at high speeds along the highway - it would be faster to get to the sea / or back home. This is exactly the case! High air temperature also accelerates oxidative processes in the engine and affects the development of the engine oil resource. Operating the engine at low temperatures also affects the life of the engine oil! Attempts to start the engine in cold weather often lead to the fact that the engine is not started, and fuel was supplied at that time. Fuel settling in the crankcase enters the engine oil and dilutes it. Subsequently, the fuel, of course, burns out and evaporates, but the oil is already spoiled and miraculously, to a fresh state, cannot be restored. In winter, we often warm up the engine before starting to drive, but long idle (XX) downtime is again not good for engine oil. The engine is running - and the car does not "reel" the mileage, meanwhile we change the oil according to the mileage!
  6. Towing a trailer, transporting heavy loads in the trunk, operating a car in mountainous areas.It is no secret that in a heavily loaded technique, oil develops its resource much faster. If you use your car to uproot stumps in the country, you will wear out the engine ten times faster than during normal operation. The more the engine is loaded, the faster the oil wears out in it. Car operation in mountainous areas, where ups and downs are frequent, also seriously affects the reduction of the engine oil resource.

It is generally accepted that operating conditions are difficult in Russia! On our resource site, we have seen examples and confirmations that the Japanese in Japan, Europeans in Europe, Americans in the USA - consider their "greenhouse" operating conditions - difficult and cut the change intervals in half! Then what are the operating conditions in Russia?

On-board computer as a guideline for oil change times.

In modern cars, the on-board computer, based on the data received, itself signals when to change the oil. The service interval (mileage until the next service) is calculated based on the distance traveled over a certain period of time, the fuel consumed and the temperature change over the same period. Data is collected from various sensors in the car, the crankshaft speed sensor, the oil temperature sensor, the distance traveled from the tachometer, fuel consumption, etc. Based on this data, the control unit calculates the remaining mileage before maintenance and signals the required service interval on the display.

Fig 2. An example of how the service interval is calculated in Skoda cars:


Fig 3. Depending on the data received, the on-board computer can give various options:

But you need to understand that an on-board computer is just a car., which does not take into account many factors, and was created by its manufacturer, who also cannot take into account all factors! Therefore, you will not make it worse if you change the oil more often - you will only make it better!

So, what engine oil change interval should you choose?

Let's highlight the main points when choosing an engine oil change interval.

  1. We look at the manufacturer's manual... It is the manual, and not the translations of third-party Russian editions taken from where it is not clear! In the manual, we find a plate with the change intervals, and the lines "under severe operating conditions, we recommend reducing the change interval by half." Sometimes there is nothing in the manual about the mileage. We are looking for official technical documents, usually in English. Be sure to follow the official recommendations of the manufacturer of your car!
  2. We define our operating conditions.In most cases, if you live in Russia, you have just harsh operating conditions! But there are exceptions! For example: You live in a quiet, provincial town with no traffic jams. Moderate climate, the temperature in summer is not more than + 30C, there is no frost in winter. The car is used daily and drives at least 20-30 km after starting. The car does not idle for 20-30 minutes (you do not use the autostart function of your alarm - yes, this is also harmful!). You fill the fuel at one filling station, you know for sure that it is of good purification, with a low sulfur content. Fuel is supplied directly from the refinery, all documents are in order (and in general, this is your relative's gas station 🙂). The terrain is flat, not dusty, the roads are asphalt (because recently the president came to your city 🙂). In these cases, you do not have to shorten the change interval and assume that you have normal operating conditions! In all other cases, consider your operating conditions as difficult!
  3. What kind of oil do you fill? If you pour mineral oil, it lives less - you need to make discounts on this. This also applies to "synthetic" hydrocracked oils (VHVI, Group III). If you pour real synthetics of PAO / Esters - they live longer than mineral oils and hydrocracking oils - but don't flatter yourself! In motor oil, in addition to the base oil, there is a package of additives that work, regardless of whether they are dissolved in synthetics, or in mineral water. If you have severe operating conditions, you need to pay attention to the characteristics of the engine oil. On oils with a low base number (for example TBN \u003d 5-6), as well as on bad high-sulfur fuel - it is not advisable to drive with long change intervals!
  4. What is your engine? If the engine of your car is equipped with a turbine, the oil develops its resource faster than in a simple atmospheric engine. There are manufacturers who recommend in difficult conditions, for turbo engines, the change period is 2500 km!

Example 1: Let's try to determine the change interval for the 2008 toyota camry.
Find toyota official document:, below in small text it is written "Under severe operating conditions, reduce the shift interval by half." We divide 14000/2 \u003d 7000 km. Final choice: Change interval 7000 km.

What do motor oil manufacturers say?

Engine oil manufacturers almost always maintain solidarity with car manufacturers regarding drain intervals. Almost everywhere it says "Refer to your vehicle's manual." But there are expert answers in the form of advice. In their answers, engine oil manufacturers almost always rely on the recommendations of car manufacturers!

In conclusion of the article, I would like to cite the FAQ, a very famous and popular in the West, motor oil manufacturer Valvoline.

Question: Do I need to shorten my oil change interval to 3000 miles (about 5000 km)?
Answer: Valvoline recommends changing the oil every 3000 miles (about 5000 km). Most car enthusiasts (more than 80% of drivers, according to a study in the state of California) operate a car under severe operating conditions (start-stop mode, driving short distances, towing, very high or very low temperatures, etc.) operating conditions, in most recommendations 3750 miles or less, and 3000 miles (about 5000 km) is the most common recommendation. Engine oil and oil filters have a shorter life under severe operating conditions due to increased contamination. Thus, changing the oil and filter every 3000 miles (about 5000 km) is the best way to ensure a healthy engine.

You can subscribe to every word! It is the frequent intervals of engine oil change - 5000 km, that will protect you from the accumulation of deposits in the engine, from the negative effects of poor quality fuel, from the harsh operating conditions of the car, etc. Shortened engine oil change intervals are one of the most effective ways to keep your engine in top condition! With 5000 km change intervals, the car engine will serve faithfully for many years!
