Is it time you got an oil change for your car? Before you take it into a service center, you should familiarize yourself with the different types of oil available. This will help ensure that you get the right kind for your vehicle. Your choices include:
Conventional
Conventional oil is suitable for most vehicles. If your car is not very old and doesn’t have a ton of miles on it – and you don’t use it for strenuous activities like towing – this oil could be the right choice.
Full Synthetic
If you drive a luxury model that has a highly-tuned engine, it will probably require full synthetic oil. This provides more lubrication than conventional oil, as well as increased resistance to thermal breakdown.
Synthetic Blend
Oil composed of both conventional and full synthetic oil offers the best of both worlds. This is the type generally recommended for vehicles that are regularly used for towing or hauling. Synthetic blend also does a very good job of dealing with very cold or hot weather.
High Mileage
Once your vehicle reaches 75,000 miles, it’s a very good idea to consider a high mileage oil, as this is designed to reduce the amount of oil your car consumers. It is also good for the environment, as it cuts down on emissions.
