    My old speedpie used to do maintenance in the 4S shop and change the original engine oil. When you burn the engine oil, you add engine oil, and you find that the root cause is not the root cause. Later, I simply bought the engine oil myself to change.

    The brand is imported German GT engine oil, four types of PAO base oil, after the change, I feel that I have changed to a brand new engine, the power is up, and the car is very quiet. Just make up for a little oil consumption.

    It's not the same. The specific method of changing the engine oil:

    1. Unscrew the lid of the oil filler on the engine;

    2. Lift the vehicle (pay attention to safety, confirm the safety and then lift);

    3. Clean the old engine oil;

    4. Remove the old filter, release the old oil from the filter port, and confirm that the rubber ring of the filter is not left on the engine;

    5. Install the new machine filter (confirm that the thread and size of the machine filter are consistent), tighten it with 20nm force, and tighten the oil drain screw with 30nm force at the same time.

    6. Wipe the oil pan and the surrounding area of the filter with a rag, and check the chassis parts;

    7, get off the car;

    8. Surround the oil filling port with a funnel or rag, fill the oil, and stop after 3L;

    9. Check the liquid level height of the oil dipstick;

    10. Continue to fill a small amount of filling, and at the same time keep checking the liquid level height of the oil dipstick until the max position of the oil dipstick;

    11. Ignite and hit the throttle a few times to check whether there is oil leakage at the oil drain screw of the oil pan and the filter;

    12. Turn off the engine and get off the car;

    13. Check the height of the oil dipstick liquid level, and ensure that the vehicle is parked on the horizontal road surface;

    14. If the oil is missing, add a small amount to the ** position; If you add too much oil, suck it out with a tube.

    No, the oil has to be changed regularly for 5000 km. Engine oil has the function of cleaning, cooling and lubrication. The purpose of changing the engine oil is to remove the internal carbon deposits and sludge.

    Adding engine oil is added in the case of lack of engine oil to meet the amount of oil required by the engine, and it is generally not necessary to add it without burning oil or leaking oil. Therefore, adding and changing are not the same, adding is to meet the amount of oil required for engine lubrication, and changing is to remove the internal sludge and ensure the lubrication of the oil.

    Simply taken literally, it's completely different, changing the oil is to put the oil out of your engine first, and then add new oil. Adding engine oil is not to release the old engine oil in the engine when the engine oil is lost, but to replenish the engine oil to the specified value on this basis. Here's the difference between the two.

    However, it depends on whether it is a local term, some technicians are used to changing the engine oil, and then injecting new engine oil when it is called adding engine oil, I don't know what your specific situation is.

    Changing the engine oil is normal maintenance! The old oil is emptied, and the new oil is added! If the vehicle is missing oil due to a breakdown or engine oil burn during the maintenance interval, and the oil volume is lower than the specified value, it is time to add it!

    Worlds apart. Adding oil just doesn't make the oil less. Changing the engine oil is to completely remove the oil inside the machine. The fuel consumption in the body is very bad for the engine. The shredding of the wear and tear of the parts is in the oil, which will aggravate the wear of the parts!!

    Changing the oil is about draining the oil from the engine and adding new oil.

    Adding oil is the amount of oil shown by the oil ruler is insufficient, but it is not the time to change the oil, so it is added.

    It's not the same, it's just adding used engine oil, it's still changing, it's just new engine oil.

    Engine oil is very important for automobiles. Because it is the blood of the car, protecting the work of the car's engine. I believe everyone knows the important role of engine oil for automobiles, but how to choose the right engine oil?

    Different types of motor oil have different ranges of application. If you find that the oil pan of the car is often watery and rusty during maintenance. Then we should check whether the tire pressure is normal.

    If there is a frequent puncture in the tire, we should replace the tire, because if the tire has an aging problem in this situation for a long time, it will definitely affect the normal operation of the car.

    Synthetic motor oil is very high, so its cost is also high. And it doesn't perform as well as synthetic motor oil. However, I think that with the development of science and technology, I believe that the quality of engine oil will also improve in the future, and there is no need to worry too much.

    Because the quality of the oil is already quite good now.

    Then, we also need to choose the right type of engine oil according to the engine model, so as to ensure the normal operation of each part of the car engine. "Engine Oil Quality Manual" (GB T26301-2006) recommends that the engine oil should be mineral oil or semi-synthetic engine oil, which can effectively improve engine efficiency and reduce engine wear rate;

    Mineral oil is not resistant to high temperatures, which can cause engine overheating, accelerate wear, and produce carbon deposits. Therefore, when choosing an engine oil, you can choose according to the engine model. So is there a motor oil that's right for you?

    I believe that many people will say that different use environments are different, so how to choose engine oil? Let me tell you about it.

    If you use 5w-30 engine oil in winter, its oil film protection performance is also very good. The low-temperature fluidity of this oil is better than that of ordinary 4W-30. If you use 5W-30 in winter, its fluidity is better than that of ordinary 4W-30 products.

    Therefore, many owners of new cars will say that it is better to use 5w-30 products.

    Fully synthetic motor oil of 5w-30 can be used.

    Take the Shell Helix Ultra range, for example, which is suitable for most luxury sedans, turbocharged models and high-performance sports cars. Among them, the Shell Helix Ultrar focuses on sporty performance

    Changing the engine oil is expensive, the owner's guide.

    Car owners know that once the car reaches the time of maintenance, not only the maintenance of the car itself, but also the maintenance of the engine oil is generally needed, so how much does it cost to change the oil?

    1. Under normal circumstances, if the owner chooses to buy the engine oil and change the oil for the vehicle by himself, then the usual cost will be about 150 yuan - 350 yuan, because different brands of engine oil also have certain differences in the first grade.

    2. If the owner chooses to change the engine oil in the auto repair shop, then there is usually no difference between the cost of buying engine oil and the one you buy, but there will be an extra labor cost of about 30 yuan - 60 yuan, so the cost of all the calculations will be about 180 yuan - 400 yuan.

    3. If the owner wants to choose to go to the 4S shop to change the engine oil, then the car flush usually costs more expensive, and it is generally about 500 yuan or more. However, it is undeniable that the service of the 4S shop will be better, and the quality of the engine oil used is also more guaranteed.

Theoretically, it should be cleaner. Because the oil is pumped directly into the bottom of the oil pan, the oil is pumped out by using the injection and suction away to form a negative pressure, so that the oil will be pumped relatively cleanly. >>>More

Normally, multi-grade viscosity oil, in addition to the change in the selection of low-temperature viscosity in winter, the high-temperature viscosity does not change with the use of summer, because the temperature of the engine after fully heating up is about the same in winter and summer, all around 90-100, then if the original factory of your car recommends that the viscosity of the engine oil is 5w-30 in winter, you can also use this viscosity oil in summer. Hope.
