What Type of Engine Oil is Suitable for the Skoda Octavia 1.6 Naturally Aspirated?
1 Answers
Octavia 1.6 is most suitable for 5W40 or 5W30 grade engine oil. Its engine pursues high power, and its high compression ratio results in a high-temperature working environment inside the engine. Using high-viscosity oil can protect the internal components of the engine and cool them to reduce the operating temperature. Engine Oil Brand Selection: For the selection of engine oil brands, if you prioritize the long-lasting performance of the oil, Mobil oil can be used; if you need oil with strong cleaning capabilities, Shell oil is recommended; if you require oil with strong oil film toughness, Castrol is suggested. For example, turbocharged engines are prone to carbon buildup during high-speed operation, so Shell fully synthetic oil with strong cleaning capabilities can be used. Functions of Engine Oil: Engine oil can lubricate and reduce friction, assist in cooling, seal and prevent leaks, prevent rust and corrosion, and provide shock absorption for the engine. It is known as the 'blood' of the car. Choosing the right engine oil and changing it regularly can maintain the engine in good condition and extend its service life.
