What grade of engine oil should be used for the new Sylphy?
1 Answers
The new Sylphy uses 5w30 grade engine oil, and the original specification oil of this grade can be used. Engine oil, also known as engine lubricant, serves to lubricate and reduce friction, assist in cooling, seal against leaks, prevent rust and corrosion, and provide shock absorption for the engine. It is composed of base oil and additives. 5W30 indicates the viscosity grade of the engine oil. W stands for Winter, and 5W represents the oil's flow performance at low temperatures. The smaller this number, the better the oil's low-temperature fluidity. 30 represents the high-temperature viscosity grade of the oil, and the higher this number, the better the oil's protective performance for the engine at high temperatures.
