What is the model and specification of Emgrand engine oil?
2 Answers
The model and specifications of Emgrand engine oil are SAE10W30 and SAE5W30. The functions of engine oil are: 1. Lubrication and anti-wear; 2. Auxiliary cooling; 3. Cleaning; 4. Sealing and leakage prevention; 5. Rust and corrosion prevention; 6. Shock absorption. Taking the 2021 Emgrand as an example, its body dimensions are: 4632mm in length, 1789mm in width, 1470mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2650mm and a fuel tank capacity of 50L. The 2021 Emgrand is equipped with a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine, with a maximum horsepower of 109P and a maximum power of 80kW.
Well, I learned about the recommended oil specifications from my experience driving an Emgrand. My car is an Emgrand GL, and the manual clearly states that a 5W-30 oil viscosity is recommended, with an API rating of at least SN or SP, ensuring oil purity and anti-wear performance. The 'W' in 5W stands for winter suitability, meaning good fluidity at low temperatures, while the '30' indicates high-temperature viscosity, maintaining stable engine lubrication. Using synthetic oil in my car makes the engine quieter and acceleration smoother. If you're in an extreme climate zone, like northern winters, 0W-30 is better to prevent cold-start wear. The engine type also affects the choice—the Emgrand's 1.5L naturally aspirated engine suits this oil, while turbocharged engines may require higher quality. I change the oil every 8,000 km, and checking oil levels is crucial to avoid carbon buildup and component damage, extending engine life by at least 5 years. In short, always refer to the manual—using outdated or mismatched oil harms the car and wastes money.
