2 Answers
Changan CS35 is best suited for SL-grade 5W30 engine oil, which serves functions such as lubrication, cleaning, sealing, buffering, rust prevention, and heat dissipation. Below are additional details: 1. Powertrain: The CS35 is equipped with a new-generation Bluecore high-efficiency engine featuring a DVVT (Dual Variable Valve Timing) system, delivering a maximum power of 92KW (6000rpm) and a maximum torque of 160Nm (4000-5000rpm). 2. Build Quality: The CS35 boasts reliable quality and excellent craftsmanship. Whether it's the core components (engine, transmission, chassis) or the materials and assembly, the CS35 ranks among the top in its class.
I've driven a Changan CS35 for many years and found that the best engine oil is 5W-30 full synthetic, like big brands such as Shell Helix or Mobil 1. It provides super smooth protection, preventing engine overheating or wear. In northern winters, 5W starts up quickly, which is reassuring, and switching to 5W-40 is also suitable for summer. Remember to check the API standard recommended in the owner's manual—SN grade or above is the minimum; don’t buy low-quality oil that could harm the engine. I change it every 8,000 kilometers while also cleaning the air filter. These small steps have kept the car running like new even after over 100,000 kilometers, saving me major repair costs. With proper maintenance, fuel consumption even dropped a bit—a pretty cost-effective investment.
