What is the suitable engine oil for Cavalier?
1 Answers
Cavalier engine oil can choose international brands such as Mobil, Shell, Castrol, and Total. Domestic brands include Great Wall, Kunlun, Tongyi, and Longpan. The original factory uses mineral oil with the model 5W-30, a replacement capacity of 4L, and a replacement cycle of 10,000 kilometers. The following is a partial introduction about engine oil: 1. Mineral oil: Mineral oil is the remaining oil after gasoline and heavy oil are extracted from petroleum. Mineral oil is actually a natural oil with more impurities. It is cheaper than semi-synthetic oil and fully synthetic oil, has poor lubricity for the engine, and has a short service life. 2. Semi-synthetic oil: Semi-synthetic oil is between mineral oil and fully synthetic oil. Semi-synthetic oil adds a large number of anti-corrosion additives to improve the stability and high oxidation resistance of the oil. 3. Fully synthetic oil: Fully synthetic oil is the best among the three types of oil in terms of quality and durability, and it is also the most expensive type of oil. Generally, the mileage of a car can reach 10,000-12,000 kilometers without deterioration. 4. The harm of water in engine oil: A small amount of water entering the engine mixes with the oil in the cylinder, deteriorating the oil quality. Oil containing water will increase the wear of engine parts, and it is possible that the engine noise and vibration of the vehicle will increase in the future.
