What Type of Engine Oil Should Be Used in Summer?

[StellaFitz]

In summer, 10W40 or 10W30 engine oil is generally recommended, as the oil type is clearly labeled on the bottle. When using your vehicle in summer, ensure proper lubrication while selecting engine oil with the lowest possible viscosity based on the temperature range, engine temperature, and actual vehicle condition. For engines in good condition with minimal wear, a lower viscosity oil is suitable. For engines with significant wear and larger clearances, a slightly higher viscosity oil may be appropriate. Engine oil, also known as motor lubricant, serves multiple functions including lubrication and wear reduction, auxiliary cooling, sealing against leaks, rust and corrosion prevention, and shock absorption.
