Synthetic oil reviews

The math is really against you. Synthetics cost 3-4 times the price of normal dino oil and the most you would be able to safely extend the drain interval is 25-50%!!! If your car is under warranty, you cannot extend the interval at all without voiding it.

This is the 21st or so post on that specific subject, I believe, and the best way to get maximum engine life at the LOWEST OVERALL COST is:

  1. Use normal oil recommended for the engine.

  2. Change oil and filter at the recommended interval for highway driving in normal weather.

  3. For stop and go, and severe operation, drain oil every 3000-5000 miles.

If you do the above, your cost will be less than 1/2 of using synthetic and the engine will outlast the rest of the car!!!

P.S. This is all the review you need!
