What type of engine oil is used in Mingtu 4S stores?
2 Answers
Mingtu 4S stores use fully synthetic engine oil. It is recommended to use the engine oil model specified in the maintenance manual, as this model is most suitable for the engine. Introduction to gasoline: Gasoline is a volatile, flammable hydrocarbon mixture liquid derived from petroleum through distillation and cracking, used as fuel. It appears as a transparent liquid, is flammable, with a distillation range of 30 to 220 degrees Celsius. Its main components are C5 to C12 aliphatic hydrocarbons and naphthenes, along with a certain amount of aromatic hydrocarbons. Gasoline has a high octane number (anti-knock combustion performance) and is classified into grades such as 89, 90, 92, 93, 95, 97, and 98 based on octane ratings. Characteristics of gasoline: The main characteristics of gasoline are volatility, stability, anti-knock properties, corrosiveness, and cleanliness.
Last time I took my Mistra to the 4S dealership for maintenance, they used Hyundai's recommended synthetic oil, typically with viscosities like 5W-20 or 5W-30, to ensure smoother engine operation. This oil was chosen because the manufacturer specifically designed it for the Mistra, matching its engine characteristics to reduce wear and extend lifespan. I insist on getting oil changes at the 4S shop every 5,000 kilometers for maintenance, and I've noticed the car runs much quieter with quicker acceleration response. Don’t forget to regularly check the dipstick to ensure the oil level is sufficient and clean, otherwise major issues can arise. I also occasionally add some engine protectant for extra care—since switching to genuine oil, I’ve had far fewer problems.
