Why Upgrade to Synthetic Oil?

Why is synthetic oil better? Compared to regular oil, synthetic oil has many advantages:

  • Better low- and high-temperature viscosity performance at service temperature extremes.
  • Better viscosity index (VI).
  • Better chemical and shear stability.
  • Decreased evaporative loss.
  • Resistance to oxidation, thermal breakdown, and oil sludge problems.
  • Possibility to extended drain intervals, with the environmental benefit of less used oil waste generated.
  • Improved fuel economy in certain engine configurations.
  • Better lubrication during extreme cold weather starts.
  • Possibly a longer engine life.
  • Superior protection against “ash” and other deposit formation in engine hot spots (in particular in turbochargers and superchargers) for less oil burn-off and reduced chances of damaging oil passageway clogging.
  • Increased horsepower and torque due to less initial drag on engine.
  • Improved Fuel Economy.
