2 Answers
The oil filter of Dongfeng Fengshen AX7 is located on the side of the cylinder block. You can lift the vehicle to check its position. The oil filter removes impurities, gum, and moisture from the oil, then delivers clean oil to all parts of the engine that require lubrication. It should be replaced every time the engine oil is changed. The Dongfeng Fengshen AX7 is a domestic brand SUV model with dimensions of 4645mm in length, 1880mm in width, and 1690mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2715mm. The vehicle features electric lumbar support for the driver's seat, welcome memory function for the driver's seat, stepless adjustment for the rear seat angle, an added LOGO welcome light function, and is equipped with features such as automatic adjustment memory for the exterior rearview mirrors when reversing and a sensor-activated electric tailgate.
I've been driving the Dongfeng Fengshen AX7 for several years. I remember one time when I changed the oil filter myself, it took me a long time to locate it. It's positioned beneath the engine compartment, near the oil pan, specifically on the driver's side underneath. You need to lift the car with a jack to see it. The first time I changed it, I was a bit confused and spent quite some time feeling around underneath before finally locating the filter cap, which is easily blocked by the exhaust pipe or other components. When replacing it, you need to use a specialized tool to unscrew it; otherwise, the filter might leak oil and create a mess. For regular maintenance, I recommend checking it every 5,000 kilometers to avoid engine wear caused by contaminated oil and to extend the car's lifespan. Anyway, I've learned my lesson—now I perform regular maintenance, and the car runs much smoother, saving me a lot on repair costs.
