    To be honest, if you want to identify the quality of a motor oil from the appearance, according to the development of today's science and technology, it is really difficult, whether it is packaging, anti-counterfeiting logo, or font, the workmanship is so seamless.

    But this oil can really distinguish some good from bad, and for some reason, there are only two kinds to name here:

    Identification before opening the bottle.

    Generally, the sound of differential engine oil shaking is very loud and brittle, just like the sound of a bottle of mineral water shaking. And a good engine oil is sticky, and the sound of shaking will be very different. When buying, you can shake each other to compare, this is actually the simplest, most direct, and best way to use.

    Some oils with good viscosity and good color are not necessarily good oils.

    This is to open the lid to see, after adding the oil, and then see if there is black sediment at the bottom of the bottle, if there is, then congratulations on winning the lottery, this must be refined from waste engine oil. Some good used engine oil is re-filtered and then turned into new engine oil. And if this oil is identified by shaking, it is really not good, because its viscosity is still there, but it is a little lacking in color or temperature resistance and wear resistance.

    Therefore, in order to achieve the purpose of profit, some people adopt the method of filtering to get by.

    The last thing to say is that it is best to buy engine oil in a regular store.

    JD Castrol motor oil is real. Castrol Magnetics' unique intelligent molecular formula adsorbs on the surface of the engine at the moment of engine start-up to form a special protective oil film, with 75% of wear occurring within 10 minutes of start-up and warm-up phases. These molecules adhere tightly to metal surfaces, significantly reducing wear and tear and providing long-lasting protection for the car.

    Long-lasting protection in cold climates and in a wide range of driving conditions and temperatures.

    The main advantage: the name of the champion fully synthetic motor oil can literally be inseparable, this motor oil is inseparable from the racing field. This motor oil is a fully synthetic racing engine oil that supports the engine's power output.

    When the engine is started cold, when the oil has not completely covered the cylinder surface or other parts that need to be lubricated, some substances in the magnet oil will be adsorbed on the cylinder surface like a magnet to provide short-term lubrication and greatly reduce the wear of the engine during cold start.

    In fact, Castrol has not officially admitted that Jingdong is a self-operated channel, I have bought it a few times, and once it was obvious that it felt very noisy, it should have been that time I bought fake engine oil, and it was indeed right to buy real and fake. Now I don't buy it at all, I buy imported GT engine oil directly, which is niche and high-end, so I don't have to worry about fake engine oil, and the power is also obvious.

    It's not that the engine oil sold by Jingdong is fake, but the e-commerce platform is not the official website of the engine oil itself after all, even if it is authorized, brands like Castrol, Mobil, and Shell with many fakes, they can't give you 100% authenticity, and they are basically a mix of real and fake, which has also been reported on the news. After the insurance, I found the GT engine oil I bought on the official website of GT, and I have learned about the Meijia shell, there are too many fakes, the GT oil channel is strictly controlled, and the reputation is smaller, so I am more at ease to use it myself. And I'm not blind Amway, GT engine oil base oil is PAO, additives are liquid molybdenum, all of which are the highest-end, it should be a conscience engine oil that can take into account both fidelity and performance.

    Jingdong and Suning Tesco this kind of B2C shopping**, now have the problem of platform merchants, not self-operated, this kind of goods should pay attention to the authenticity when buying. Their self-operated goods are all purchased directly from the manufacturer, and it is basically impossible to be fake. Therefore, when choosing a product, we must look at whether it is self-operated, and my personal experience is that even if it is more expensive, it is also a self-operated product.

    Therefore, the Castrol engine oil you look at on Jingdong, as long as you choose the self-operated one, there will be no fake.

    To be honest, in addition to the official Castrol Tmall store, the Castrol engine oil bought in other places may be fakes, including J Dong and T cat authorized stores, I have been using German GT engine oil now, the main thing I like is that it has no fakes, because it has a very strict control over sales channels, and the performance is particularly good, not as flashy as big brand engine oil!

    The texture of the real Castrol oil packaging barrel is a vertical line, which feels like a thin line to the touch, and there is a distinct ridge line on the bottom edge. In addition, the text on the tin foil of the cap is clear, and the seal is relatively tight, after opening the cap, the workmanship of the cap is exquisite, the surface is not flawed, and the connection is also clearly visible. The fake barrel packaging has no vertical lines, the bottom is relatively smooth, and there is no text on the sealing tin foil.

    When we buy car engine oil by ourselves, try to choose the physical store under the ** purchase or go directly to the car elimination 4S store for replacement, because the ** physical store purchase and 4S direct replacement, once the oil problem can be found in time, and it is more convenient to deal with the problem.

    Automobile oil is the blood of the engine, which can effectively protect the automobile engine, reduce the wear and tear of the engine, and cool the engine. Therefore, when we buy engine oil or change engine oil, we must choose a regular shop and a repair shop with professional technology, and I personally recommend choosing to go to a 4S shop as much as possible to avoid unnecessary losses to yourself.

    Knowledge expansion. Castrol oil products are divided into three series: Extreme Protection, Magnetic Protection, and Guardianship.

    Their quality from high to low is: extreme protection, magnetic protection, and good protection. Castrol's main engine oil products for gasoline engines are:

    Champion fully synthetic motor oil, magnetic motor oil, and Jiagu motor oil. Champion fully synthetic motor oil is a fully synthetic racing engine oil, which can assist the engine to output surging power. Magnetic engine oil is the UMA magnetic molecule of the engine oil, which can be adsorbed on the surface of the engine like a magnet when the car starts, greatly reducing the wear and tear of the engine when starting.

    Jiahu engine oil contains active molecules, which can maintain good fluidity and improve lubrication efficiency in the low temperature ring closure environment, and Jiahu engine oil also has strong anti-rust and anti-wear functions.

    Official** can buy engine oil directly.

    Things on the Internet are indeed cheaper, and it is mainly not like physical stores that need to pay rent, utilities or something, which is relatively cost-effective. Things purchased online are not as visible and tangible, so there are many drawbacks. Some car owners will buy some engine oil from the Internet for convenience, the appearance of these engine oils is exactly the same, but the effect after use is very different, and the engine will also suffer a lot of damage, it is obvious that this is to buy fake engine oil.

    There are many fake engine oils on the market, some of which are re-refined with some waste engine oil, and some are blended with some low-cost engine oil, in short, people's wisdom is infinite in the face of interests. So how to simply distinguish between real and fake engine oil, first of all, we can find problems on the packaging, and some fake engine oil packaging will be different from **, this can be noted.

    The *** on the oil bottle can also check the authenticity, and the web page for real and fake oil inquiry will also be different. After turning on the oil, you can distinguish it from its color, viscosity and smell, the fake oil generally tastes pungent and unpleasant, and the color of the fake oil will be much lighter if it is blended. Regardless of the color of the real engine oil, the permeability in the sun will be better, on the contrary, the fake engine oil will not be like this, and the authenticity can also be observed from its precipitation condition.

    The above are some simple identification methods, if the above conditions of the engine oil can only indicate that it is really bad. Now a lot of high-imitation engine oil on the market is generally not visible, the color, smell, packaging are no different from the first, this can only be identified by using professional instruments and equipment, so we are also powerless. If you use fake engine oil for a long time, the vehicle will naturally tell us the answer, and the car may not be able to get out of the repair shop for two days.

    Engine oil, I suggest that it is more appropriate to buy this product in a physical store, not to mention the chance of buying fakes, at least it is more convenient to protect your rights afterwards, in order to save more than a dozen dollars, it is not good to poke out a bigger basket in the world.

    We all know that the application of fake engine oil in the car will cause the destruction of the car engine, and the previous engine oil because of the anti-counterfeiting identification countermeasures are insufficient, resulting in criminals counterfeit and shoddy engine oil in the market, many car buyers are deceived in the past. Nowadays, more and more manufacturers are spending a lot of time on the anti-counterfeiting label of motor oil, so that customers can easily and conveniently identify the authenticity of motor oil. Today, the handbook will introduce the authenticity identification of the well-known Castrol engine oil.

    We can distinguish a real Castrol oil from the following levels.

    1.The difference in packaging.

    **The paint barrel of Castrol oil is horizontally lined, feeling like a filament, and there are significant convex lines in the transition area along the bottom edge. The paint bucket of the fake oil feels that it is significantly particles, and the bottom end of the articulation area is smoother.

    2.The difference in the workmanship of the stopper.

    **The stoppers are beautifully made, there are no defects, and the joints are clearly visible; Fake engine oil, on the other hand, is not smooth in workmanship, and you can see the sealing line, but you can see the residual material that is not neat.

    3.The difference between bottle caps.

    The sealing of Castrol engine oil is sealed with tin foil, the content of the tin foil is very clear, and the sealing is relatively tight, and there is a layer of maintenance pad in the cap; Although there is tin foil on the sealing side of the fake engine oil, there is no other text in it, and the stickiness is not strong, and there is no protection in the cap.

    4.Comparison of the oil itself.

    The hue of the oil can be observed, the hue of the fake engine oil is very light, and there are many bubbles in the stacking process, and the dissipation is slow; **The oil is poured out, and there are not too many bubbles on its appearance, and there is no residue.

    5.Anti-counterfeiting code query.

    Castrol stoppers have a unique anti-counterfeiting marking, which damages the wound once the label is removed for motor oil, while counterfeit goods remain intact and in their original condition. At the same time, people can check the authenticity of engine oil according to the methods of sending information, communication, and logging in to the official.

    2021 Castrol anti-counterfeiting code query method.

    5.In the scan *** web page, embed the bottle cap*** into the frame to get the certification result.

    The above is Castrol Engine Oil 2020's new upgraded anti-counterfeiting code query method, because this unique logo is unique to the manufacturer, and it is difficult for ordinary criminals to counterfeit. Special attention is paid to the fact that it is very likely that there are also criminals who carry out anti-counterfeiting logo secondary sticking on fake engine oil, so the driver must be careful and careful when observing.

    Finally, it is recommended that you buy a car, the importance of engine oil does not need to be talked about, and there is no need to apply shoddy and counterfeit engine oil due to the low level, because the car is generally unlikely to be very harmful in the short term, and it will cause serious harm after a period of application.

Castrol engine oil has the longest maintenance mileage and the best performance should be Castrol EXTREME, it is a three-class fully synthetic engine oil, the reason for the big brand, the cost performance is not very good, I used it a long time ago, and then because the cost performance is not very good, I changed to GT Magic Red, GT is a four-class fully synthetic engine oil, the performance is far better than Castrol EXTREME.

Castrol's main focus is not power, and power should be Castrol's biggest shortcoming, the second guarantee has been changed once, and the most obvious experience is that when running at high speed, the strength can't come up, which is really uncomfortable. Compared with the imported GT engine oil that was changed later, it is also quite obvious, and it has enough power to run at high speed, and it is cool to drive. However, GT engine oil is a high-end engine oil of the PAO class, and magnetic protection is only a general synthetic engine oil of the second class base oil, so the lack of power is understandable, and it is no problem to drive normally.
