How Often Should Castrol Magnatec Engine Oil Be Changed?
1 Answers
Castrol Edge is a fully synthetic engine oil, and fully synthetic oil can be changed every 10,000 kilometers or once a year. Here are some details about oil change intervals: 1. New cars: Under normal driving conditions, if synthetic oil is used, the oil in a new car can generally be changed every 10,000 kilometers, and some can even go up to 20,000 kilometers. Automotive maintenance professionals consider "normal driving" to mean frequent highway driving with minimal stopping and starting. However, if you often drive in the city, encountering traffic lights everywhere, frequent traffic jams, and most trips are no more than a dozen kilometers, this type of driving is considered "severe driving." 2. Importance: Engine oil is to a car what blood is to the human body, and the engine is the heart of the car. During engine operation, piston movement generates friction, and gasoline combustion in the cylinders can raise temperatures inside the engine to as high as 600°C, also producing metal particles and other waste materials from friction.
