What type of engine oil should be used for the Cruze?
1 Answers
The Cruze uses Shell 5W-30 engine oil. Here are the relevant details: 1. The engine is the heart of a car, containing many metal surfaces that move and rub against each other. These components operate at high speeds in harsh environments, with working temperatures reaching 400°C to 600°C. Under such extreme conditions, only qualified lubricating oil can reduce engine component wear and extend service life. 2. Below are the specific steps for changing engine oil: (1) Run the engine until it reaches operating temperature. (2) Place an old oil container beneath the oil pan, locate the oil pan drain plug, and slowly loosen it, being careful to avoid contact with hot oil. (3) Move the oil container beneath the oil filter, use an oil filter wrench to loosen the filter, then unscrew it by hand. (4) Refer to the user manual to select the appropriate oil filter. (5) Apply new oil to the gasket of the new filter. (6) Pour new oil into the oil pan, following the instructions in the user manual. (7) Finally, turn off the engine, recheck the oil level, and dispose of the old oil and filter according to local regulations.
