What is the oil specification for the Malibu?
1 Answers
The oil specification for the Malibu is 5W30. The 'W' stands for winter, and the number 5 indicates the oil's cold-start performance. The smaller this number, the better the oil's cold resistance. The number 30 represents the kinematic viscosity standard at 100 degrees Celsius, which generally means a relatively higher viscosity specification, thus providing better protection under high-temperature conditions. Taking the Malibu 2018 530T Automatic Comfort Edition as an example: it is a mid-size car with a length, width, and height of 4855mm, 1854mm, and 1476mm respectively, a wheelbase of 2737mm, front-wheel drive, front suspension type as MacPherson independent suspension, and rear suspension type as multi-link independent suspension.
