One of the critical aspects to be considered in vehicle maintenance is lubrication,

specifically in transmission and differential. Such components bear momentous

measure of stress and friction. Lubricants are essential as it prevents the automobiles

from premature wear. Car engines and gearboxes run smoothly thanks to sophisticated

oils and greases. The four core roles of automotive lubricants are to regulate friction and

wear, prevent rusting, cool the pistons, and shield the sump-stored engine oil from

combustion fumes. The viscosity of a lubricant is, in fact, perhaps the most important

physical characteristic. How it changes with temperature, shear rate, and pressure

mostly determines the lubricant's performance in an engine. But the lubricant's

chemistry is also crucial; it must be anti-oxidant and able to "laid down" a protective film

to fend off wear and tear in situations when metallic contact is unavoidable. 2 Tools,

machines, specifically engines need enough lubrication to be able to run smoothly. In

averting impetuous wear and tear, overheating and other mechanical failures, a proper

lubrication is vital. On top of that, it also aids in improving fuel efficiency, reduces the

noise and vibration and enables the vehicle to further lengthen its lifespan. Such

significant maintenance and routine for engines are crucial for every vehicle owners to

save them from a far more repair cost if not well taken care of.
