Thicker oil can sometimes help reduce knocking by adding more lubrication to the engine, which can decrease friction and heat. However, it is not a guaranteed long-term solution. Knocking in the engine is often a sign of more serious underlying issues, such as mechanical problems, incorrect ignition timing or using low-quality fuel. These issues need to be addressed and fixed by a professional mechanic to stop the knocking permanently. Always consult a professional before making any major changes to your vehicle.
1. Before resetting the check engine light, you should attempt to diagnose the reason why the light is on in the first place. This can be done with an OBD2 scanner or some auto parts stores may offer a free diagnosis service.
2. Once you have identified and fixed the problem, you can proceed to reset the check engine light.
Here are the steps you can follow:
1. Insert the ignition key and turn it to the “accessory” or “on” position. Do not start the engine.
2. Fully press and then release the gas pedal three times within five seconds. If the “change oil” light is flashing, the system is resetting.
3. Turn the key to the “off” position.
4. If the light is still on, repeat the process.
It's important to note that this method doesn't always work, especially on newer vehicles. If your check engine light remains on after attempting this method, the best option may be to take the vehicle to a professional for diagnosis and possible light reset.
Alternatively
You can reset the check engine light using an OBD2 scanner:
Plug the standard OBD-II connector into the DLC socket located close to the steering wheel.
Turn the ignition on and wait for the scanner to run a self-test.
After completing the self-test, choose “Erase Codes” from the scanner menu.
Press “Yes” to confirm.
After you delete all this information, the check engine light will turn off.
Remember: fixing the problem that triggered the check engine light is crucial. Otherwise, the light will come back on.
Always follow your vehicle’s owner’s manual for specific instructions on how to reset your check engine light.
The lifespan of a rebuilt engine can vary widely, typically between 100,000 to 150,000 miles, depending on the quality of the rebuild, the components used, and how well it's maintained thereafter. A well-rebuilt engine that replaces major wear components, uses high-quality parts, and is reassembled by experienced mechanics can last almost as long as a new engine. Proper maintenance plays a crucial role in extending the life of a rebuilt engine. Regular oil changes, timely replacement of filters, and adherence to the manufacturer's maintenance schedule can significantly impact its longevity. Comparatively, a poorly rebuilt engine using low-quality parts or incorrect assembly practices can fail much sooner.
A rebuilt engine can last anywhere from 7,000 to 100,000 miles or more. The longevity will depend on a variety of factors such as how well the rebuild was done, the skill and knowledge of the mechanic, maintenance practices, driving habits and original condition of the engine before rebuilding. On average, a well-rebuilt engine should last at least as long as the original engine, if not longer.
