What type of engine oil is used in the 2019 Sylphy?

[LaJaxson]

The 2019 Sylphy uses fully synthetic or semi-synthetic engine oil with a viscosity of 20. The functions of engine oil are: 1. Lubrication to reduce wear; 2. Cooling and temperature reduction; 3. Shock absorption and cushioning. The body dimensions of the 2019 Sylphy are: length 4631mm, width 1760mm, height 1503mm, with a wheelbase of 2700mm and a minimum ground clearance of 166mm. The front suspension of the 2019 Sylphy is a MacPherson independent suspension, and the rear suspension is a torsion beam non-independent suspension. It is equipped with a 1.6L inline 4-cylinder turbocharged engine, with a maximum horsepower of 126ps, a maximum torque of 168nm, and a maximum power of 93kw, paired with a 5-speed manual transmission.

My 2019 Sylphy has been using 0W-20 synthetic oil, which feels particularly suitable for daily driving. Over these years of driving, I've chosen this type of oil for every maintenance session. In summer, the engine responds quickly even in high temperatures, and in winter, it starts much smoother, with slightly better fuel efficiency compared to before. The Sylphy's engine design is quite precise, and synthetic oil offers better wear resistance. It's generally recommended to change the oil every 5,000 to 7,000 kilometers. I used to use conventional mineral oil, but after switching to synthetic, I noticed the car runs much quieter. When buying oil myself, I choose big brands like Shell or Mobil and have it changed at a reliable small shop, costing around 300 yuan each time. Remember to check the viscosity recommendation on the oil cap label and avoid using high-viscosity oil randomly to prevent engine issues. Regular maintenance gives peace of mind for long-distance driving.

I often change the engine oil for my car by myself. My 2019 Nissan Sylphy recommends using 5W-30 synthetic oil, which has moderate viscosity and is easy to handle. When changing the oil myself, I first warm up the engine to drain the old oil thoroughly, then loosen the drain plug and replace the oil filter. I recommend Bosch or Mann filters as they are less prone to clogging. Next, pour in the new oil—about 4 liters is sufficient. Synthetic oil offers excellent protection, doesn’t harden in winter, and ensures quick starts. I’ve tried several brands like Castrol, which offers good value for money. If you drive long distances frequently, check the oil level and top it up regularly. Don’t skimp on this—using high-quality oil helps prevent engine issues and avoids costly repairs. Before changing the oil, read the manual to confirm the viscosity. Most Sylphy models recommend 0W-20 or 5W-30, depending on local temperatures.

For my Sylphy, choosing engine oil depends on the engine requirements. The 2019 model generally recommends synthetic oil with viscosities of 0W-20 or 5W-30. Synthetic oil provides superior lubrication and better protects components from wear. The Sylphy engine is relatively lightweight, so 0W-20 ensures smoother cold starts and prevents overheating issues in summer. The recommended oil change interval is every 5,000 kilometers—don't delay too long to avoid affecting performance. When selecting oil, look for API SN-certified products to ensure good cleaning performance and carbon deposit removal. If you drive gently, 5W-30 is more economical. Regular maintenance is crucial—if oil quality deteriorates, the engine noise will increase.
