Things that you must know before it's too late: don't ignore the loose engine mount!
The engine is an important component in driving a car as it generates energy that will make the car move.
When used continuously, the engine and parts can deteriorate over time and car users may have to encounter loose engine mounts. Therefore, taking care of the engine is something all car users should prioritize. If the engine is used without being taken care of, the engine can eventually be damaged beyond repair.
Today, PTT Lubricants will guide car users in recognizing the symptoms and provide simple solutions for fixing them so that everyone can solve the problem accurately!
Car emits white smoke
The color of smoke coming out of the exhaust pipe is one symptom that you can easily observe. If you find that there is white smoke coming out of the exhaust pipe more than usual, it may indicate that oil may have leaked into the combustion chamber which is a result of loose engine mount. However, it can also be caused by worn pistons, cylinders or valve seats.
Car becomes sluggish, not accelerating
In case you notice a significant drop in your car's accelerating power despite stepping on the accelerator pedal, it could be an indication that your engine is starting to come loose due to a loss of compression. When this happens, it is recommended that you take the car to check the compression level. If the compression level is lower than the manufacturer's threshold, it could be because the engine has become loose. However, acceleration issues can also be caused by other reasons such as using too high viscosity engine oil, deteriorated spark plug, broken ignition coil or clogged fuel filter. Therefore, when you encounter accelerating problems, you should have your car thoroughly checked by an expert so you can have your car fixed as soon as possible.

The engine makes unusual noises
This can be noticed from the sound of the engine. If there is a noise coming from the engine or piston and has a slight vibration when the car is running, this indicates that your car began to show signs of malfunction. You should bring the car to a service center to have it inspected and fixed as soon as possible.

The car consumes more fuel than usual
Another way that car users can easily observe any malfunction is to check from engine oil. If you check the internal system and find that there is no leakage, try pulling out the oil dipstick to check the oil level. If the engine oil level is abnormally low and you need to fill it up more often than usual that could be because the engine has become loose, causing engine oil to leak into the engine and get burned. It is important to check the level and condition of engine oil regularly. You should also choose high quality engine oil that will fully lubricate your engine to help protect the engine and prevent premature engine loosening.
