What oil filter does the Changan Eado use?
2 Answers
Changan Eado's dedicated oil filter model is GA-1088. It needs to be checked every time the engine oil is changed. If the oil filter is dirty, changing the oil becomes less meaningful, as the newly added oil will quickly become dirty again without proper filtration. More details are as follows: 1. There are two types of oil filters: one is external, located on the chassis, connected to the oil line, and cylindrical in shape; the other is internal, located inside the fuel tank. By opening the fuel tank cap, you can see the fuel pump, and the fuel filter can be seen after disassembling the fuel pump. 2. Generally, newer models released in recent years use internal filters. As for the oil filter, it can be found along the oil line, near the oil pan. The oil filter of the Changan Eado is located under the engine, a cylindrical component with a diameter of about five to six centimeters.
I've been driving a Changan Eado for several years and have some experience with changing the oil filter. Most Eado models use a 1.6L or 1.4T engine, and the factory-recommended filter models include Changan's own filters or compatible ones from Bosch and Mahle, depending on the year. For my 2019 model, I use the Bosch 0 986 452 992, which is easy to install and has good filtration. Don't skimp on maintenance—changing it every 5,000 to 10,000 kilometers is safest. If you're doing it yourself, buy a matching one online and avoid using filters for other models to prevent oil leaks. Remember, a good oil filter can extend engine life, maintain power output, and make driving smoother and more reliable. Always check the manual or ask the dealership to confirm the correct model.
