Synthetic Oil: What is so good about it?

If you are looking for improved gas mileage and you push your engine hard daily, synthetic oil is the right choice for your vehicle.  The frequently asked questions we get is, “is it ok to switch from conventional oil to synthetic, without harming my engine?”  The answer is yes.  All motor oils do the same thing.  They provide lubrication for your engine to reduce friction. Based off how you drive your vehicle, our technicians can help you make the right decision.

Synthetic Oil vs Conventional

Conventional and synthetic oil are both manufactured from crude oil.  The refining process is same, however synthetic oils go through an additional process that result in higher film strength that handle higher temperatures better.

The cost for a synthetic oil change is often more expensive than conventional due to the extra processing that occurs; however, the result is often a better performance and longer life of the engine.  Ask our technicians what the right choice is for your engine.

What are the benefits of using synthetic oil?

  • Fewer emissions
  • More uniform performance and maximized horsepower
  • Better fuel economy
  • Cooler engine operation
  • Longer intervals between oil changes
  • Increased engine protection

Using synthetic oil is better for the environment, increases gas mileage, provides greater engine protection and extends the time between changes, which are all money saving measures.
