What kind of engine oil should be used for Honda Vezel?
1 Answers
The original engine oil is the one used for Honda Vezel, with the model number 5W-30. In terms of applicability, the original oil is more suitable for the engine. However, depending on different needs, engine oil can also have other functions, such as noise reduction, fuel efficiency, and power performance. Therefore, you can also choose engine oils from brands like Mobil, Shell, and Castrol. The viscosity of engine oil changes with temperature, so special attention should be paid to its performance under low and high temperatures. For example, in 5W-30, the first number indicates low-temperature fluidity. 5W means it can withstand low temperatures of -30°C. The smaller this number, the better the low-temperature fluidity, making cold starts smoother. The latter number represents the kinematic viscosity of the oil at 100°C. The higher the number, the better it maintains viscosity at high temperatures, which can also be understood as better lubrication performance under high temperatures. The method for changing the engine oil for Honda Vezel is as follows: Wait for the engine temperature to drop, allowing the oil to flow back to the oil pan; use a wrench to loosen the oil drain plug and place an oil pan to catch the old oil until it stops flowing. Start the engine and let it run for 30 seconds to allow the oil in the main oil passage to flow out; use a special wrench to remove the oil filter; apply oil to the oil seal of the new oil filter and tighten it clockwise by hand; add the new oil through the oil filler cap on the engine valve cover, usually filling up to three-quarters of a bottle; start the engine and let it run for 5 minutes, then check for oil leaks around the oil drain plug and oil filter, and repair if necessary; after stopping the engine, pull out the oil dipstick to check if the engine oil is within the standard range.
