What kind of engine oil should be used for the Avancier 370?
2 Answers
The Avancier 370 is recommended to use fully synthetic engine oil. Detailed information about the Avancier 370 is as follows: 1. The Avancier is a mid-size SUV launched by GAC Honda. Compared to models equipped with naturally aspirated engines, turbocharged engines require higher-performance engine oil to protect the engine. 2. In terms of power, this car has two models: the 240 model and the 370 model. The 240 model is equipped with a 1.5T turbocharged engine, while the 370 model is equipped with a 2.0T turbocharged engine. Since this car uses a turbocharged engine, it is recommended to use fully synthetic engine oil to protect the engine and extend the maintenance cycle. 3. There are three types of engine oil used in cars: mineral oil, semi-synthetic oil, and fully synthetic oil. Compared to mineral oil and semi-synthetic oil, fully synthetic oil performs better and has a longer usage cycle. In cold start conditions, using fully synthetic oil makes the engine run more smoothly, saves fuel, and improves the engine's fuel economy.
I've been driving the Honda Avancier 370 for over two years, consistently using 0W-20 full synthetic engine oil. This oil flows quickly during cold starts, preventing engine wear, especially suitable for turbocharged engines. After each oil change, the car runs smoother with reduced noise and slightly better fuel efficiency—average fuel consumption dropped by about 0.5L. I recommend checking and replacing it every 8,000 km or six months; don't delay too long. I use brands like Shell and Mobil, choosing API SN grade or higher to ensure cleanliness and prevent carbon buildup. If you frequently drive on highways or in high-temperature areas, you might consider 5W-30 viscosity, but generally, 0W-20 is sufficient. The oil has a mild odor, maintenance is simple, and cold starts in winter are super quick.
