What is the original engine oil model for Great Wall Fengjun 5?
4 Answers
Great Wall Fengjun 5 uses 5W-30 engine oil as original equipment. Below are relevant introductions about engine oil: 1. Functions of engine oil: The main functions of engine oil are lubrication, cleaning, and heat dissipation. In fact, many parts of vehicles use engine oil, but the oil that needs to be replaced every 5000 kilometers refers to engine oil. Most people generally use semi-synthetic and fully synthetic engine oils, with conventional oil being rarely used. Conventional oil is typically used in agricultural machinery, tricycles, and motorcycles. 2. Replacement mileage: Conventional oil: 5000 kilometers, Semi-synthetic oil: 7500 kilometers, Fully synthetic oil can go up to 10000 kilometers before requiring maintenance.
I've been driving the Great Wall Wingle 5 for several years, and the factory-recommended oil for this vehicle is SAE 10W-40. I remember using this oil every time during maintenance at the 4S shop. It feels smooth when the engine runs, and the car starts without any hiccups in winter, much better than switching to other cheaper oils. If you stick with the factory oil long-term, it not only protects the engine from wear but also saves on repair costs, as the oil circuit design is well-matched. I recommend checking the oil level and color every 5,000 kilometers and replacing the filter on time for peace of mind. Don’t opt for lower-viscosity oil just to save trouble, or the lubrication may be insufficient in summer heat, causing the engine to overheat and break down. Drive smoothly, avoid sudden acceleration, and you can extend the oil's lifespan.
During vehicle maintenance, I noticed that the original factory oil recommended for the Fengjun 5 is SAE 10W-40, which is quite suitable for the engine of this type of pickup truck, capable of handling various temperature changes. Don't be careless when choosing engine oil; the original factory oil offers stable quality and provides sufficient lubrication and protection. If you switch to inferior products, it may lead to increased fuel consumption or sludge buildup. Remember to keep the oil change interval around 5,000-7,000 kilometers, adjusting based on driving habits. If you frequently drive under high loads, the interval should be shortened. Regularly check the oil level to maintain an appropriate amount and reduce friction wear. Ensure the air filter is clean, as it affects the efficiency of the oil.
The original engine oil I use for my Fengjun 5 is the SAE 10W-40 model, which matches the vehicle well in many aspects, such as quick winter starts and good summer heat dissipation. Sticking to the original oil is safer than randomly switching, as using the wrong oil can lead to increased engine noise and performance degradation. Don't delay the maintenance cycle too long; checking every 5,000 kilometers can help identify issues early. Gentle acceleration during daily driving is better for the oil.
