What type of engine oil is used for the Audi Q3?
1 Answers
Audi Q3 uses engine oil with the specification 5W40. Below is detailed information about automotive engine oil: 1. Engine oil, also known as engine lubricant, serves multiple functions for the engine, including lubrication and friction reduction, auxiliary cooling, sealing to prevent leaks, rust and corrosion prevention, and shock absorption. It is often referred to as the 'lifeblood' of a car. Engine oil consists of two main components: base oil and additives. The base oil is the primary constituent of the lubricant, determining its fundamental properties, while additives compensate for and enhance the performance of the base oil, providing additional characteristics. Additives are a crucial part of the lubricant. 2. Engine oil is typically used to lubricate the internal components of an engine. High-quality lubricants can enhance machine performance. Since each vehicle's engine and engine speed vary, the lubricant matched to each model has different effects on lubricating engine components. Therefore, vehicles generally come from the factory with specialized original engine oil to ensure optimal engine performance during operation. This also allows the lubricant to fully protect the engine components, delivering a more powerful driving experience for passengers.
