Can the Chevrolet Cavalier use 5W40 engine oil?
1 Answers
Chevrolet Cavalier can use 5W40 engine oil. Here is the relevant introduction about 5W40: 1. Concept: "5W40", "W" stands for "winter", meaning it is used in winter. The number 5 before "W" represents the viscosity at low temperatures. The smaller the number, the better the fluidity at low temperatures and the stronger the cold resistance. "40" refers to the viscosity at 100°C. The larger the number, the higher the viscosity and the stronger the high-temperature resistance. 2. Scope of use: German cars usually have turbocharged engines with relatively large gaps, so 5W40 (high viscosity) engine oil should be chosen. European cars also use 40 viscosity engine oil.
