Does Castrol have the Quanhu series?
1 Answers
Dongfeng Castrol primarily focuses on the production of original equipment manufacturer (OEM) lubricants for Dongfeng Group and aftermarket service oils. The aftermarket-produced lubricants are referred to as the Quanhu series. The performance of the Quanhu series products is commendable. After using them for a period, the fully synthetic lubricants offer excellent cost-performance ratio. With Castrol's technical support, the overall performance is comparable to Castrol's Edge series products, making them reliable for use. Advantages of Castrol: Castrol's main advantages include excellent cold-start performance, providing protection even before the engine starts, superior anti-wear properties compared to other lubricants, and effective reduction of engine noise. However, its cleaning capability is not as good as Shell and Mobil's equivalent products, and the lubricant tends to degrade relatively quickly. It's evident that different brands of lubricants have their own strengths and weaknesses, with some focusing on cleaning performance and others on high-temperature wear resistance. Precautions for using synthetic lubricants: It is important to note that in extreme weather and environmental conditions, it is recommended that vehicle owners use fully synthetic lubricants. For example, extremely cold regions, dusty areas, severely humid environments, and high-temperature zones can all impose significant stress and damage on the engine.
