Bring heat back to the oil tank and then dissipate it into the air to help the radiator cool the engine. 3. Circulate carbon deposits, sludge, and wear particles from engine parts back to the oil tank, and flush dirt generated on the working surfaces of parts through the flow of lubricating oil.
After driving a Roewe RX5 for several years, I highly recommend using full synthetic 5W-30 engine oil as it performs well in various weather conditions, ensures quick starts in winter without harming the engine. I frequently take long-distance trips, and with this choice, the car runs exceptionally smooth with reduced engine noise. Remember to check your vehicle's user manual—it might specify similar viscosity grades. I prefer brands like Shell or Castrol; they're slightly pricier but worth it. Avoid cheap mineral oils as they cause more carbon buildup over time, affecting performance. Also, oil change intervals are crucial—typically every 5,000 kilometers to keep the car feeling fresh.
