1 Answers
Running semi-synthetic oil for 10,000 kilometers can damage the car and may lead to reduced lubrication performance, potentially causing engine damage. The types of semi-synthetic oil, as well as replacement and selection guidelines, are as follows: Types of semi-synthetic oil: Semi-synthetic oil is a type of automotive engine oil that uses semi-synthetic base oil. For vehicles using semi-synthetic oil, the replacement interval is typically 7,500 kilometers, whereas conventional oil usually requires replacement every three months. Oil replacement and selection: Oil replacement should be determined based on actual driving conditions and habits. In harsh driving environments, earlier replacement may be necessary. Oil replacement is not strictly time-based and requires reasonable judgment by the vehicle owner. The type of engine oil should also be selected with reference to the recommendations in the vehicle's maintenance manual.
