Meta Mechanics recently completed an oil change service for a Range Rover HST in Dubai. During this service, our expert technicians performed a detailed inspection of the vehicle’s engine and identified several issues that could affect its performance and longevity. Below are the key problems discovered and the solutions we provided to ensure the engine operates efficiently and the vehicle performs at its best.
Issues Identified:
- Old and Contaminated Engine Oil
- Problem: The engine oil was old and contaminated with dirt, debris, and carbon deposits, which significantly reduces its ability to lubricate the engine properly, causing increased friction and engine wear.
- Solution: We drained the old oil and replaced it with fresh, high-quality, manufacturer-recommended engine oil, ensuring proper lubrication and reducing engine wear to maintain optimal engine performance.
- Low Oil Levels
- Problem: The engine oil level was below the recommended range, which can lead to inadequate lubrication, overheating, and potential engine damage.
- Solution: We topped up the oil to the appropriate level, ensuring adequate lubrication and cooling for the engine, helping to prevent any unnecessary strain on the engine components.
- Clogged Oil Filter
- Problem: The oil filter was clogged with contaminants, which reduces its effectiveness in cleaning the engine oil and can lead to poor engine performance.
- Solution: We replaced the clogged oil filter with a high-quality replacement filter to ensure the oil is properly filtered, preventing contaminants from circulating through the engine and extending its lifespan.
- Engine Sludge Buildup
- Problem: Prolonged oil change intervals had led to a buildup of sludge and debris in the engine, restricting the oil’s ability to flow freely and lubricate critical parts.
- Solution: We performed an engine flush to remove the sludge buildup and clean the internal components of the engine, ensuring that the fresh oil can flow freely and provide optimal lubrication.
- Worn Valve Seals
- Problem: The valve seals were worn, which can result in oil leaks, increased oil consumption, and a reduction in engine performance.
- Solution: After completing the oil change, we recommended replacing the worn valve seals to prevent oil leaks and excessive consumption, ensuring the engine remains efficient and oil-tight.
