Geely Vision X3 can use either semi-synthetic or fully synthetic engine oil. Precautions for changing engine oil in Geely Vision X3: There are many options when changing engine oil. The common engine oils on the market are generally divided into fully synthetic oil, semi-synthetic oil, and mineral oil. These three types of oil differ in price and quality. Geely Vision X3 powertrain: The Vision X3 is equipped with a Geely self-developed 1.5L high-efficiency engine, with a maximum power of 75KW and a maximum torque of 141Nm. It also offers two transmission options: 5MT/4AT. The chassis of the Vision X3 adopts a front MacPherson independent suspension and a rear torsion beam semi-independent suspension, making the chassis robust and powerful. In line with the needs of Chinese car owners, the Vision X3 has undergone deep customized development for components such as the subframe, rear axle, and shock absorber assembly, providing a comfortable driving and riding environment for the owner.
I've been driving the Geely Vision X3 for several years and regularly use 5W-30 synthetic oil. The manufacturer recommends this viscosity as it balances quick cold starts with strong high-temperature protection. Synthetic oil lasts longer, reduces engine friction, and can last between 5,000 to 10,000 km per change, depending on driving habits. For city commuting with frequent traffic jams, change it at 5,000 km; for more highway driving, you can extend it to 8,000 km. Never use off-brand oil to avoid counterfeit products affecting engine lifespan, and always replace the oil filter together. Check the oil level during each maintenance, keeping it at the midpoint for optimal performance. Choose reputable brands like Shell or Mobil to ensure authenticity—don't compromise your car's health to save a few bucks. Consistent maintenance like this keeps acceleration smooth and fuel consumption low.
