What type of oil is suitable for the Eado?
2 Answers
Eado is suitable for 5w30 oil. The number before 'w' indicates the low-temperature viscosity. The lower the number, the thinner the oil is at low temperatures, making it easier to start the car and allowing the oil pump to circulate it more quickly in the engine, providing better cold-start protection. The number after 'w' represents high-temperature performance. The higher the number, the thicker the oil is during operation, offering better high-temperature protection and buffering capabilities, as well as reducing noise. The Eado is a compact 4-door, 5-seater sedan under Changan New Energy, with dimensions of 4740mm in length, 1820mm in width, and 1530mm in height, a wheelbase of 2700mm, and equipped with a fixed gear ratio transmission.
I often drive cars like the Eado, and personally, I think 5W-30 synthetic oil is the most suitable, especially for modern engines. Because its viscosity is moderate, the engine runs smoothly in both summer and winter, with less noise at startup and faster, quieter acceleration. I usually use Shell or Total oil, and it's fine to change it every 8,000 kilometers—don't wait until the light comes on. Remember, the oil grade should be SM or above, meeting API standards, and avoid using oil that's too thin or too thick, as it can easily cause engine wear or higher fuel consumption. When changing the oil, it's best to replace the oil filter as well, as this can extend the engine's lifespan and reduce future maintenance hassles. Regularly check the oil level and don't wait until it's low to top it up—this is especially important for long-distance driving, as it can prevent engine overheating issues.
