What engine does the Subaru XV use?
1 Answers
The engine of the Subaru XV is manufactured in Gunma Prefecture, Japan, by Gunma Manufacturing Co., Ltd. The Subaru XV is equipped with the FB20 engine model, delivering a maximum horsepower of 156 HP, a maximum power output of 113 KW at 6000 rpm, and a peak torque of 196 N.m. For daily maintenance of the Subaru XV's engine, the following methods can be employed: 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 not lower than the manufacturer's specified requirements. Regularly change the engine oil and oil filter. The quality of any grade of lubricating oil will deteriorate during use. After a certain mileage, performance degradation can cause various issues for the engine. To avoid failures, change the oil regularly based on usage conditions and maintain an appropriate oil level. When oil passes through the fine pores of the filter, solid particles and viscous substances in the oil accumulate in the filter. If the filter becomes clogged and oil cannot pass through the filter element, it may rupture the filter element or open the safety valve, allowing oil to bypass through the relief valve and carry contaminants back to the lubrication areas, accelerating engine wear and increasing internal contamination. 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; in large amounts, it precipitates out, 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 normally but also extends the overall lifespan of the radiator and engine.
