1 Answers
Generally, you can drive about 5,000 kilometers after an oil change. Depending on usage conditions or other factors, the oil change interval can be appropriately adjusted to ensure good engine lubrication under different operating conditions and extend the engine's service life. Engine Oil: Also known as engine lubricant, with a density of approximately 0.91×10³ (kg/m³), engine oil consists of two parts: base oil and additives. The base oil is the main component of the lubricant, determining its fundamental properties, while additives compensate for and improve the shortcomings of the base oil, imparting certain new characteristics, making them an essential part of the lubricant. Functions of Engine Oil: It lubricates and reduces friction in the engine, aids in cooling, seals against leaks, prevents rust and corrosion, and acts as a shock absorber, earning it the nickname "blood" of the car.
