What is the best engine oil for the Lynk & Co 03+?
2 Answers
The Lynk & Co 03 uses fully synthetic engine oil with a viscosity grade of 0w-20. Below is an introduction to the Lynk & Co 03: 1. The Lynk & Co 03 is a compact sedan launched by Lynk & Co. In terms of power, this model is equipped with 1.5T and 2.0T turbocharged engines. Compared to naturally aspirated engines, turbocharged engines require higher-performance engine oil for better protection. 2. Fully synthetic engine oil offers superior fluidity and lubricity compared to other types of engine oils, naturally providing better protection for the engine. 3. There are three types of engine oils used in automobiles: mineral oil, fully synthetic oil, and semi-synthetic oil. Among these three types, fully synthetic oil performs the best, as it adapts to a wider range of temperatures and has a longer service life.
I just had my Lynk & Co 03+ serviced recently and did thorough research on engine oil selection. This 2.0T engine requires full synthetic oil, with the manufacturer recommending 0W-20 or 5W-30 viscosity. I prioritize engine protection, so I'm using Mobil 1 0W-30 - cold starts feel exceptionally smooth, and engine noise at high RPMs is significantly reduced. Actually, the key to choosing oil lies in certification standards; it must carry API SP or ACEA C5 certifications. For mainly city driving, I recommend changing oil around 8,000 km, which can be extended to 10,000 km if you frequently drive on highways. Never compromise with cheap mineral oil - turbocharged engines can't withstand that.
