What type of engine oil is suitable for the new Alto?
1 Answers
It is recommended to use 5W-30 for the new Alto, as this is the optimal oil viscosity recommended in the Alto's manual. It provides quieter engine performance, better fuel efficiency, and is also cost-effective. Below is some relevant information about engine oil: 1. Engine oil, also known as engine lubricant, is referred to as the 'blood' of a car. It serves multiple functions such as lubrication, cleaning, cooling, sealing, wear reduction, rust prevention, and corrosion protection for the engine. 2. The engine is the heart of a car, containing many metal surfaces that move against each other under high friction. These components operate at high speeds, in harsh environments, and can reach working temperatures of 400°C to 600°C. Under such extreme conditions, only qualified lubricants can reduce engine component wear and extend the engine's lifespan.
