What type of oil should a Compass use?
1 Answers
The Compass should use 5W20 fully synthetic oil. The oil type should be adjusted according to the regional environment. Taking 0W-20 as an example: the 0W in 0W-20 indicates the cold-start performance of the oil. Replacement interval for fully synthetic oil: Under normal circumstances, fully synthetic oil can be replaced every 10,000-12,000 kilometers or every six months. However, the actual replacement time depends on usage conditions. When the driving environment is dusty, temperatures are relatively low, or the vehicle is frequently used for short trips, the replacement interval for fully synthetic oil should be shortened to ensure smooth engine operation. Precautions for using fully synthetic oil: When changing the oil, it is best to replace the oil filter as well, otherwise accumulated impurities can easily cause blockages; the oil pan bolt should be replaced each time the oil is changed, as the oil pan screw serves as a protective measure for modified engines or engines under long-term high-load use.
