The original engine oil model for the Roewe RX5 is: 5W30 fully synthetic oil. The engine lubricant quality grade, also known as the performance grade, serves as an important basis for correctly selecting lubricants. Engine oil, or engine lubricant, performs functions such as lubrication and wear reduction, auxiliary cooling, sealing and leak prevention, rust and corrosion protection, as well as shock absorption and buffering for the engine. The Roewe RX5 is a compact SUV produced by SAIC Motor, equipped with a 1.5T 169-horsepower L4 engine and a 6-speed manual transmission. The engine delivers a maximum power of 124kW and a maximum torque of 250Nm. The dimensions of the Roewe RX5 are 4556mm in length, 1855mm in width, and 1719mm in height.

I'm quite familiar with the original oil specification for the Roewe RX5. My car is the 2019 1.5T model, and the factory recommends using 5W-30 full synthetic oil because this type of oil is particularly suitable for turbocharged engines. It ensures smooth cold starts and protects the engine by reducing wear. I believe choosing the factory-recommended oil is crucial for extending engine life, and the maintenance interval suggests changing it every 5,000 kilometers or six months. If you opt for cheaper oil to save trouble, it might clog the oil passages and result in louder engine noise. For purchasing, it's reliable to go to a 4S shop or look for the specified brand on trustworthy e-commerce platforms—don't experiment randomly to avoid spending money on engine repairs later. Drive gently in daily use; good oil also helps save fuel.

Speaking of the original engine oil for the Roewe RX5, my experience tells me that a 5W-30 full synthetic oil is generally used. It has low viscosity and good fluidity, making it especially suitable for stop-and-go city driving, with reduced engine noise and smooth acceleration. The original oil model is designed to match the engine's oil pressure and temperature control, preventing overheating or wear damage. Don't casually switch to other models, as something like 0W-20 might be too thin and could lead to oil leaks. I recommend checking the owner's manual to confirm the model year and sticking to regular maintenance to ensure engine health for worry-free long-distance driving.

I believe the original oil for the Roewe RX5 should be 5W-30 full synthetic, which is crucial for protecting core components while being cost-effective and safe. Not using the factory-recommended oil can lead to carbon buildup and higher failure rates in the engine. Check the manual for the specified brand, as generally, the services provided by 4S shops are reliable. Don't delay the oil change interval; change it every 7,500 kilometers, otherwise, you may experience reduced power and increased fuel consumption.

Where Does Car Noise Come From?

Car noise comes from: 1. Engine carbon buildup; 2. Shock absorber failure; 3. Large gaps in the cabin or vehicle body; 4. Tire aging; 5. Internal damage to valve guides; 6. Cooling system failure; 7. Poor oil quality; 8. Engine misfire; 9. Spark plug carbon buildup. Methods to reduce car noise include: 1. Applying sound-absorbing foam material under the engine hood; 2. Installing sound-absorbing cotton material in the trunk, at the bottom of the trunk, and on the wheel arches on both sides of the trunk; 3. Installing sealing strips inside the doors; 4. Installing professional damping plates in areas prone to noise; 5. Replacing tires.

How to Identify Whether a BMW is Imported?

To identify whether a BMW is imported, you can check the car's VIN code or the manufacturer's plate, which usually indicates the vehicle's origin on the firewall in the engine compartment or the B-pillar of the passenger side. Here is additional information about parallel imported vehicles: 1. Advantages: Auto traders directly introduce foreign cars into the domestic market through overseas trade. These vehicles have passed the national 3C certification and can be registered domestically. Since they are not imported through the automaker, they do not incur high tariffs, making price affordability a natural advantage of parallel imports. Additionally, parallel imported cars are produced directly overseas, so they often come with rich configurations and high-quality materials. 2. Disadvantages: If the car model is special, replacement parts may only be available through import in case of an accident, which can significantly increase repair costs as parts cannot be purchased domestically. 3. Documents required for purchasing a parallel imported vehicle: Vehicle Import Certificate (Customs Document), Vehicle Inspection Report (Commodity Inspection), Vehicle Conformity Certificate, Vehicle Purchase Invoice, Import Vehicle Electronic Information, etc.

What Do Active Braking and Active Safety Systems Mean?

Active braking refers to a technology where the vehicle can autonomously generate braking effects to decelerate the car when encountering sudden hazards during normal driving, without relying on adaptive cruise control, thereby enhancing driving safety. The active safety system includes electronic devices such as ABS and ESP. When the vehicle ahead brakes, stops, or encounters other obstacles, the system automatically increases the braking force to help the driver reduce the braking distance before taking action. The function of braking is to reduce speed or bring the vehicle to a stop. Its working principle involves converting the kinetic energy of the moving vehicle into heat energy through friction between the brake pads and brake drums, as well as between the tires and the ground, thereby decelerating or stopping the car.

Why Does Lithium Battery Life Degrade?

Lithium battery life degrades because lithium ions react with the electrolyte during movement. Lithium batteries are a type of battery that uses lithium metal or lithium alloy as the positive or negative electrode material and employs non-aqueous electrolyte solutions. The functions of the battery are: 1. To supply power to the starting system, ignition system, electronic fuel injection system, and vehicle electrical components when starting the engine; 2. To provide power to the vehicle's electrical equipment when the engine is off or at low idle; 3. To act as a voltage stabilizer for the entire vehicle's electrical system; 4. To store excess electricity generated by the alternator. Methods for maintaining a car battery include: 1. Avoid using car electrical devices after the engine is turned off; 2. Prevent multiple uninterrupted attempts to start the vehicle; 3. Regularly inspect components and connecting circuits; 4. Avoid prolonged parking in open-air parking lots.

What causes abnormal noise during low-speed steering?

When a car produces abnormal noise, the first step is to identify the source of the noise. Here are specific explanations: 1. Sound from turn signal reset: If the turn signal is activated while steering, the noise may come from the reset mechanism's recoil latch. The owner should verify this situation. If confirmed, it is a normal occurrence. 2. Noise from steering column dust cover: If the noise originates below the steering wheel, it might be caused by the steering column dust cover. Lack of lubrication in the dust cover can generate friction noise.

Where is the oil filter located on the Mazda Atenza?

Mazda Atenza's oil filter is positioned beneath the engine. The working principle of the oil filter is: During engine operation, as the oil pump functions, oil containing impurities enters the oil filter through the inlet on the filter base plate assembly. It then passes through the check valve to the outer side of the filter paper, awaiting filtration. Under oil pressure, the oil continuously flows through the filter paper into the central tube, with impurities remaining on the filter paper. Taking the 2020 Mazda Atenza as an example, it belongs to the mid-size car category with body dimensions of: length 4870mm, width 1840mm, height 1445mm, wheelbase 2830mm, fuel tank capacity 56.2 liters, and curb weight 1518kg.
