When it comes to car service, oil changes may be the most important task. Not all oil is the same, however. If your car is due for an oil change, it’s important to think about what type you want to use or which is right for your vehicle.
Conventional
Convention oil is the most common type used, and it’s probably the best choice if you have a car that’s relatively new and you only use it for light duty.
Full Synthetic
While the base material in synthetic oil is crude oil, most of it is man-made, consisting of different chemical compounds. Some engines require extra lubrication, and this is what full synthetic oil provides.
It also has higher levels of viscosity compared to convention oil and offers greater resistance to thermal breakdown. The downside of full synthetic oil is that it can be expensive.
Synthetic Blend
If you drive a truck or another type of vehicle that you use for towing or hauling, synthetic blend oil may be the best choice. This will give you the additional benefits of full synthetic oil with the cost-effectiveness of conventional oil.
High Mileage
If your car has more than 75,000 miles on it, you should consider using high mileage oil. This type is designed to reduce emissions and oil consumption, which helps your engine and the planet.
