What kind of engine oil is best for the new Jetta?
1 Answers
The new Jetta uses SG5W40 engine oil. Engine oil, also known as engine lubricant, serves multiple functions including lubrication and wear reduction, auxiliary cooling, sealing to prevent leaks, rust and corrosion prevention, and shock absorption. Engine oil consists of two main components: base oil and additives. The base oil is the primary component of the lubricant, while additives are used to compensate for and improve the performance deficiencies of the base oil, making them an essential part of the lubricant. The dimensions of the new Jetta are 4487mm in length, 1706mm in width, and 1470mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2603mm. The vehicle is powered by 1.4L and 1.6L engines, delivering maximum power outputs of 90 horsepower and 110 horsepower respectively. The transmission options include a 5-speed manual or a 6-speed automatic transmission.
