How often should I change the pistons in my car?

There is no set standard for when a car's pistons should be replaced; it depends on a number of factors.

Generally speaking, if the car is properly maintained, uses good quality oil and fuel, and there are no serious malfunctions or wear and tear, the pistons may need to be considered for replacement only after the vehicle has traveled 200,000 kilometers or even longer.

However, if the engine has problems such as oil burning, cylinder pulling, or severe piston ring wear, the pistons may need to be replaced earlier.

In addition, driving habits, road conditions, engine operating temperatures and pressures can also affect piston life.

If you notice a decrease in engine power, an increase in fuel consumption, abnormal tailpipe emissions, or unusual engine noises, you should promptly check the engine, including the condition of the pistons, to determine if they need to be replaced.
