How many liters of rear axle oil does the Wuling Hongguang S require?
2 Answers
Wuling Hongguang S transmission requires 1.3 liters, and the rear axle requires 1.2 liters. These are standard specifications, but actual conditions may vary. During an oil change, it's not always possible to completely drain the old oil, and there might be slight discrepancies when adding new oil. For instance, the oil level can be slightly below the fill port. Relevant information about engine oil is as follows: 1. Introduction: Engine oil, also known as engine lubricant (English name: Engine-oil), with a density of approximately 0.91×10³ (kg/m³), serves to lubricate and reduce friction, assist in cooling, seal against leaks, prevent rust and corrosion, and provide shock absorption. It is often referred to as the 'blood' of a car. 2. Composition: Engine oil consists of base oil and additives. The base oil is the primary component of lubricating oil, determining its fundamental properties, while additives compensate for and enhance the performance shortcomings of the base oil, imparting new characteristics. Additives are an essential part of lubricating oil.
I remember pondering this when I last changed the rear axle oil myself. For the Wuling Hongguang S, the rear axle oil capacity typically falls between 1.1 to 1.3 liters. I checked the official manual - the 2019 model with the 1.5L engine clearly specifies 1.2 liters. There are two practical points to note during oil changes: how thoroughly the old oil is drained affects the refill amount, so it's safest to prepare 1.5 liters. Since oil usually comes in 1-liter bottles, it's better to open an extra bottle than run short. Last time after changing, I deliberately drove on some slopes - no abnormal noises from the gearbox meant everything was fine. I recommend changing every 30,000 km, or every 25,000 km for vehicles frequently carrying heavy loads.
