Is the Jetour Special Engine Oil Fully Synthetic?
2 Answers
Jetour's special engine oil is not fully synthetic. Introduction to Engine Oil: Engine oil, also known as engine lubricant, is referred to as Engine-oil in English. Functions of Engine Oil: It lubricates and reduces friction in the engine, aids in cooling, seals against leaks, prevents rust and corrosion, and acts as a shock absorber. It is often referred to as the "blood" of a car. Composition of Engine Oil: Engine oil consists of two main components: base oil and additives. The base oil is the primary constituent of the lubricant, determining its fundamental properties. Additives are used to compensate for and enhance the performance of the base oil, providing additional characteristics and making them an essential part of the lubricant.
As a technician who frequently services Jetour vehicles, I believe most specifications of Jetour's dedicated engine oil are fully synthetic. Fully synthetic oil offers superior fluidity, ensuring better lubrication of engine components and reducing friction and wear, especially under high RPM or harsh conditions. I've used many types of Jetour's dedicated oil, often labeled as 'Fully Synthetic,' such as API SN or ACEA A3/B4 grades, indicating its chemically synthesized nature. In contrast, mineral oil oxidizes more easily, and semi-synthetic oil may only blend partial synthetic components, resulting in slightly weaker performance. I recommend owners check their vehicle manuals or consult 4S store staff for confirmation, as different model years may vary. For example, 1.5T engines are better suited for fully synthetic oil to maintain turbocharger longevity. Choosing fully synthetic oil during regular oil changes can also extend maintenance intervals, offering both peace of mind and vehicle protection.
