What type of engine oil should be used for Hyundai ix35 2.0?
1 Answers
It is recommended to use SN-grade 5W-20 engine oil. Below are the main functions of engine oil: 1. Lubrication and friction reduction: There is rapid relative sliding between the piston and cylinder, as well as between the main shaft and bearing bush. To prevent excessive wear of parts, an oil film needs to be established between the two sliding surfaces. A sufficiently thick oil film separates the surfaces of the relatively sliding parts, thereby achieving the purpose of reducing wear. 2. Cooling and temperature reduction: Engine oil can bring heat back to the oil tank and then dissipate it into the air, helping the radiator to cool the engine. Good engine oil can carry carbon deposits, sludge, and worn metal particles from engine parts back to the oil tank through circulation, and flush away dirt generated on the working surfaces of parts through the flow of the lubricating oil.
