Everyone knows that there are three types of engine oil: mineral engine oil, semi-synthetic engine oil, and fully synthetic engine oil. At present, the highest quality among Skoda’s original synthetic engine oils is Shell Black Diamond Engine Oil. This brand is also the world’s second to none, providing market-leading lubricants to customers in more than 100 countries and regions. Its lubrication and cleanliness are what I value most. Early autumn is approaching, and it’s time for my Xiaoxin to change the oil. I plan to give it some fine food to prepare for the upcoming holiday trip.

2. Replacement process

Because I had made an appointment with the store before, I drove the car to the store early.

The after-sales consultant who received me was helping me register carefully.

I suddenly realized that there were a lot of people taking care of their cars, and there were many people in the lounge.

This is the engine oil recommended by the store. I did not hesitate to choose a black diamond engine oil one level higher than these.

This is the protagonist of today’s maintenance. Black diamond oil 0w-40 per barrel (4L), original engine oil filter element, and oil drain screw. Let’s take a group photo.

Let’s take a look at the details. Through the packaging, we learned that this oil can effectively inhibit the formation of sludge and carbon deposits, reduce the wear of the engine during cold starting, and extend the service life of the engine. There is also an observation strip on the side that can visually see the amount of oil. There is an embossed anti-counterfeiting production date at the bottom of the package, and the original product is undoubtedly authentic.

Let’s take a look at the original engine oil filter. The product model number, origin, and use guide are also written on the surface of the product. It is very considerate. The production date can also be found on it, and the product can be traced back.

Finally, let’s take a look at the oil drain screw. The whole thing is a large hexagonal screw with washers.

To start maintenance, first add engine cleaning agent to the engine, which is a good thing for cleaning sludge.

Then idle for 15 minutes and let off the old engine oil. It can be seen that the old engine oil is very black, and a lot of sludge and carbon deposits have been brought out, and the effect is still very significant.

Next, replace the new oil filter element with the oil drain screw.

Finally, add the golden black diamond oil…

After maintenance, I found that the taillight didn’t work, so I bought a taillight bulb and installed it. The maintenance master was still very responsible and liked it.

After maintenance, the total consumption was 746 yuan, including working hours, engine oil, machine filter, oil drain screws and light bulb materials.
3. Summary

After the maintenance, I felt that the engine’s sound was much lower, the upshift was smoother, and the acceleration was faster. The most important thing was that the fuel consumption had dropped from 10 oils per 100 kilometers to 7.1 oils per 100 kilometers. I have to say that the quality of black diamonds is amazing, and spending some money to feed Xiaoxin some fine grains still got the rewards it deserves.
