Car Oil Types

Discover the Different Engine Oils Available

Many types of motor oil are available to choose from when you want to maintain your vehicle. Synthetic and conventional oils are the most common, but other choices to choose from depend on multiple factors. Where you live and drive your car, the mileage on your vehicle, and how you drive influence the oil your engine can benefit from each day. You can rely on our automotive technicians to determine which oil is the best to use. Your owner's manual will also tell you the type of oil that works best.

Full Synthetic Motor Oil

Full synthetic motor oil is a great option if you want your car to operate better and for the parts to be lubricated better. This type of oil allows your engine to obtain higher viscosity levels and resistance to oxidation to ensure your car is less at risk of thermal breakdown. This type of oil also reduces oil sludge to boost the efficiency of your motor over time.

This type of oil is known to cost more but offers a lot more benefits. It works well in engines that experience high and low temperatures year-round if you live in a climate that has extreme weather conditions. Automotive technicians also recommend using it in older vehicles.

Synthetic Blend Motor Oil

Synthetic motor oil has a mixture of additives, conventional oils, and synthetic oils to ensure you can get more benefits once you add it to your engine. It reduces oxidation and is easy to switch to if your car has always had synthetic oil. It also costs a lot less than synthetic oil to ensure you can begin saving money.

Conventional Motor Oil

Conventional motor oil is another consideration and works well in light-duty cars that have low mileage. You can use conventional oil if your car is driven locally instead of long distances. You can use this oil if your car has a traditional engine.

High Mileage Motor Oil

High mileage motor oil is best to use in any vehicle with at least 75,000 miles. It works well for reducing how much oil the car consumes, as well as the emissions output. They're made with special seal conditioners, which work well for reducing any leaks that can start to develop.
