What brand is the engine of the Fengshen AX7?
1 Answers
The Dongfeng Fengshen AX7 is equipped with two engines from the French PSA Group: a 2.0L and a 2.3L. The model number for the 2.0L is PSA RFN10LH3X, and for the 2.3L, it is PSA 3FY10XP01. The 2.0L engine has a maximum power output of 108kW and a peak torque of 200Nm, while the 2.3L engine delivers a maximum power of 126kW and a peak torque of 230Nm. The 2.0L variant can be paired with either a 5-speed manual transmission or Aisin's second-generation 6-speed automatic transmission, whereas the 2.3L variant is only available with the 6-speed automatic transmission. For the daily maintenance of the Fengshen AX7's engine, the following methods are recommended: Use lubricating oil of the appropriate quality grade. For gasoline engines, select SD to SF grade gasoline engine oil based on the additional equipment in the intake and exhaust systems and usage conditions. For diesel engines, choose CB to CD grade diesel engine oil according to mechanical load, with the selection standard meeting or exceeding the manufacturer's requirements. Regularly change the engine oil and filter. The quality of any lubricating oil will degrade over time with use. After a certain mileage, its performance deteriorates, leading to various engine issues. To prevent malfunctions, change the oil periodically based on usage conditions and maintain an appropriate oil level. As oil passes through the fine pores of the filter, solid particles and viscous substances accumulate in the filter. If the filter becomes clogged and oil cannot pass through, it may rupture the filter or open the safety valve, allowing oil to bypass through the relief valve and carry contaminants back to the lubrication points, accelerating engine wear and increasing internal pollution. Regularly clean the crankcase. During engine operation, high-pressure unburned gases, acids, moisture, sulfur, and nitrogen oxides from the combustion chamber enter the crankcase through the gap between the piston rings and cylinder walls, mixing with metal particles from component wear to form sludge. In small amounts, it remains suspended in the oil, but in larger quantities, it precipitates, clogging filters and oil passages, making engine lubrication difficult and causing wear. Periodically use a radiator cleaner to flush the radiator. Removing rust and scale deposits not only ensures the engine operates smoothly but also extends the overall lifespan of both the radiator and the engine.
