How Often Should You Change the Oil for a Sedan?
1 Answers
Different types of motor oil have different replacement cycles. Mineral oil can be changed every 5,000 kilometers or 6 months; semi-synthetic oil can be changed every 7,500 kilometers or within 6 months; and full-synthetic oil can be changed every 10,000 kilometers or 12 months. The steps for changing the oil are as follows: 1. Run the engine until it reaches operating temperature; 2. Engage the handbrake and lift the vehicle; 3. Unscrew the oil filter and drain the old oil; 4. Apply new oil to the gasket of the new filter; 5. Pour the new oil into the oil pan; 6. Check the lower part of the engine for leaks; 7. Lower the vehicle, check the oil dipstick, and start the engine; 8. Turn off the engine and recheck the oil level.
