How many liters of engine oil does the ATS use?
2 Answers
The ATS uses 4 liters of engine oil. When changing the oil, it is essential to use the same type and specification of oil as the original factory. Otherwise, it may cause oil sedimentation, reduce its effectiveness, and in severe cases, damage the car's engine. The ATS is a sporty mid-size sedan produced by Cadillac and is an imported model. The Cadillac ATS has a body size of 4730mm in length, 1824mm in width, and 1426mm in height. It is equipped with a 2.0-liter turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 279 hp, a maximum power of 205 kW, and a maximum torque of 400 Nm. It accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 6.2 seconds.
When I first bought my Cadillac ATS, I specifically checked the manual—it takes about 5.5 liters of oil for a change, which is the case for the 2.0T engine I use. During actual maintenance, the mechanics at the shop always confirm the oil level is within the normal range. Too little oil can cause the engine to overheat and wear out, while too much increases resistance and wastes fuel. So now, I check the dipstick every few months to ensure it stays between the min and max marks. This keeps the car running smoothly and avoids breakdowns on the road. I recommend not cutting corners—regular oil changes extend engine life, especially for long-distance driving or frequent aggressive driving.
