What type of engine oil is suitable for the Venucia D60?

[DiRyan]

The original engine oil used for the Venucia D60 has a viscosity grade of 5W-40. While the original oil is well-suited for the engine, different needs may require oils with additional benefits such as noise reduction, fuel efficiency, or enhanced performance. Therefore, brands like Mobil, Shell, and Castrol can also be considered. The viscosity of engine oil changes with temperature, so it's crucial to pay attention to its performance under both low and high temperatures. For example, in 5W-30, the first number indicates low-temperature fluidity—5W means it can withstand temperatures as low as -30°C. A smaller number here indicates better low-temperature fluidity, ensuring smoother cold starts for the vehicle. The second number represents the oil's kinematic viscosity at 100°C, where a higher value means the oil maintains its viscosity better under high temperatures, implying superior lubrication performance in hot conditions. The method for changing the engine oil in a Venucia D60 is as follows: Wait for the engine temperature to cool down, allowing the oil to drain back into the oil pan. Use a wrench to loosen the oil drain plug and place an oil pan underneath 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 passages to drain out. Use a specialized wrench to remove the oil filter. Apply a small amount of new oil to the gasket of the new oil filter and hand-tighten it clockwise. Add the new oil through the filler cap on the engine valve cover, typically filling up to three-quarters of the oil container. Start the engine and let it run for 5 minutes, checking for any leaks around the oil drain plug and oil filter. If leaks are found, perform necessary repairs. After stopping the engine, remove the oil dipstick to ensure the oil level is within the standard range.
