No, check engine lights do not clear themselves. If the problem has been fixed but the light continues to be on, your car’s computer must be manually reset. This is something that can typically be done by a vehicle technician.
Desludging an engine involves removing built-up sludge, a thick, tar-like residue that can impair engine performance. Start by using a high-quality engine flush product: add it to your existing oil, run the engine at idle for the specified time to allow the flush to dissolve the sludge. Then, drain the oil, replace the oil filter, and refill with fresh oil. High detergent oils and regular oil changes can prevent sludge buildup. For severely sludged engines, mechanical cleaning might be necessary, which should be done by a professional. Remember, prevention through regular maintenance is key to avoiding the need for desludging.
Worn gaskets. seals or rings can dry out. crack or become damaged due to regular exposure to hot and cold cycles. This can result in oil leaks. Similarly. depending on the life and condition of your vehicle. certain metal parts may be prone to corrosion. which can also lead to oil leaks. Additionally. if parts associated with the vehicle's oil system are not installed correctly. leaks may occur. Excessive engine pressure can also cause damage to gaskets and seals. preventing them from retaining oil and resulting in leaks. Physical collisions or damage from rocks or debris can puncture or damage components. leading to oil leaks as well. Furthermore. improper maintenance such as not changing your oil regularly or using the wrong type of oil can contribute to engine damage and subsequently cause oil leaks. Lastly. over time with increased mileage. the overall wear and tear on your vehicle can also be a factor in the development of oil leaks.
