1 Answers
The original engine oil model for the Passat is 5W40. 5W40 is the SAE (Society of Automotive Engineers) classification of the oil, indicating its viscosity value. The number before the 'W' represents the oil's low-temperature flow performance, while the number after the 'W' indicates the oil's kinematic viscosity at 100 degrees Celsius. A higher number means higher viscosity, which translates to better protection and stability at high temperatures. The Passat is a mid-size sedan designed by Volkswagen AG in Germany, with dimensions of 4933mm in length, 1836mm in width, and 1469mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2871mm. The vehicle is equipped with driver and front passenger airbags, side airbags, ABS, electronic differential lock, power windows, electrically heated mirrors, an FM/AM cassette player, and more.
