The oil specification for the Magotan is SM grade or 5W30 synthetic oil. Engine oil is a crucial factor affecting engine performance and lifespan. Functions of engine oil: 1. Lubrication and wear reduction; 2. Auxiliary cooling; 3. Sealing and leakage prevention; 4. Rust and corrosion prevention; 5. Shock absorption. Taking the 2020 Comfort model Magotan as an example, its body dimensions are: length 4965mm, width 1832mm, height 1471mm, with a wheelbase of 2871mm. It is equipped with a 1.4L turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 150PS, maximum power of 110kW, and maximum torque of 250Nm, paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.

I've been driving a Volkswagen Magotan for three years, and I've always used 5W-30 fully synthetic oil with VW 502 certification. When I bought the car, the manual clearly stated that this grade is the most suitable for daily driving. The engine runs much quieter, and fuel consumption has also decreased a bit. I think choosing the right oil is very important—the Magotan's engine is precise, and using the wrong oil can easily lead to carbon buildup, affecting its lifespan. I usually change the oil every 8,000 kilometers, along with regular checks of the dipstick to ensure the oil level is appropriate. When driving to the north in winter, the 5W's low-temperature fluidity ensures quick starts; in summer, it provides strong protection under high temperatures. I recommend Magotan owners not skimp on cheap mineral oil, as it tends to degrade quickly and damage components. If you frequently drive long distances, it's better to choose 5W-40 for greater durability. In short, developing good habits can extend the car's lifespan and save on repair costs.

What are the methods to determine if the throttle body needs cleaning?

Methods to determine if the throttle body needs cleaning are: 1. Unstable acceleration; 2. Unstable idle speed. The steps to clean the throttle body are: 1. Turn off the ignition switch and disconnect the negative terminal of the battery; 2. Remove the throttle cable, intake hose, and screws securing the throttle body in sequence; 3. Clean the throttle body with a cleaning agent, and use a cotton swab to wipe areas that are hard to reach. Reasons for a dirty throttle body include: 1. Poor filtration by the air filter and a dusty surrounding environment; 2. Poor quality engine oil with high evaporation rate; 3. Oil vapor and impurities from the crankcase. The function of the throttle body is to control the air entering the engine. After the air enters the intake manifold, it mixes with gasoline to form a combustible mixture, which then burns to generate power.
