How much engine oil should be added to the Roewe RX5?
2 Answers
The Roewe RX5 requires 4 to 5 liters of engine oil. More details about the Roewe RX5 are as follows: 1. The Roewe RX5 adopts the 'Blue Core' high-efficiency power technology, equipped with 2.0T and 1.5T in-cylinder direct injection turbocharged engines. Specifically, the 2.0T engine has a maximum power of 220 horsepower and a peak torque of 350 Nm, with a minimum comprehensive fuel consumption of 8.1L per 100 km; the 1.5T engine has a maximum power of 169 horsepower and a peak torque of 250 Nm, with a comprehensive fuel consumption of only 6.8L per 100 km. 2. The Roewe RX5 features Porsche-tuned chassis, GKN intelligent all-wheel drive system shared with Land Rover, fully independent suspension system, and a four-way high-speed CANBUS system bus, comprehensively improving driving and riding quality.
I also drive a Roewe RX5 with a 1.5T engine. The oil capacity is usually between 4.2 to 4.8 liters, depending on the manual specifications. As an experienced driver, I always check the dipstick during each maintenance. After turning off the engine when it's warm, wait a few minutes before measuring—the oil level should ideally be in the middle. Never overfill or underfill; too much oil can cause burning and accelerate carbon buildup, while too little may lead to cylinder scoring and major repairs. I typically use SN-grade 5W-30 full synthetic oil, which offers good wear resistance and slightly improves fuel efficiency. Maintenance intervals are recommended every 7,500 kilometers or six months, along with replacing the oil filter to ensure proper impurity filtration. New drivers should visit a 4S shop or use the correct tools for measurement to avoid mistakes that could damage the car—saving money and ensuring peace of mind.
