Teana 2.5 requires 4 liters of engine oil. The method for changing the engine oil is as follows: 1. Use a jack to lift the vehicle; 2. Unscrew the oil drain plug counterclockwise to drain the old oil; 3. Tighten the screw and add new engine oil; 4. Check the scale to ensure the oil is filled to the specified level, then close the oil cap. Taking the 2018 Teana as an example, its body dimensions are: length 4891mm, width 1830mm, height 1490mm, wheelbase 2775mm, fuel tank capacity 70 liters, and trunk capacity 516 liters. The 2018 Teana is equipped with a 2.0L naturally aspirated engine, with a maximum horsepower of 150PS, maximum power of 110kW, maximum torque of 195Nm, and is paired with a continuously variable transmission.

As someone who frequently works on cars, I've learned that the Teana 2.5 model requires approximately 4.5 liters of oil per change. If you're replacing the oil filter along with the oil, the total amount should stay within this range—no more, no less. Too much oil increases engine load, leading to oil seal leaks and even shortening engine life, while too little oil results in insufficient lubrication, making the engine prone to overheating and damage. I recommend using synthetic oil with a viscosity of either 5W-30 or 10W-40, as it adapts well to most environments. Remember to fully drain the old oil before adding new oil, and use the dipstick to check that the new oil level reaches the midpoint. Make it a habit to check the oil level every 5,000 kilometers or take your car to a professional shop for maintenance to ensure long-term durability.

I've been driving a Teana 2.5 for several years, and when changing the oil, I usually add about 4.5 liters. This keeps the ride smooth and fuel consumption reasonable. If you add too little, the engine will become noisy; if you add too much, the oil pressure gets too high, making acceleration feel sluggish. I generally use semi-synthetic oil—it's economical and practical. A reminder to everyone: don’t forget to change the oil filter as well, otherwise, the oil level won’t be accurate. Before starting, park the car on level ground and check the dipstick after the engine cools down. When driving normally, regularly checking the dipstick is a basic routine to prevent unexpected issues and ensure a more worry-free trip.

When I first started with the Teana 2.5, I was also curious about how much engine oil to add. After researching, I learned the standard is 4.5 liters, but it depends on whether you're changing the oil filter. If unsure, checking the manual or asking the dealership is most reliable. When I learned to change the oil myself, I drained the old oil first, then poured in new oil, using the dipstick to measure to the midpoint. Remember to choose the right viscosity oil, like the manufacturer-recommended one, for better engine protection. Developing a habit of checking oil levels, especially before long trips, can prevent minor issues from escalating—a pretty handy skill.
