Maintenance/Repairs

My Daughter in Calgary Alb. Canada lost her husband with cancer about a year ago. So I changed oil in her Subaru 6 months ago using a synthetic blend as it was on sale.A few days ago she took it to a Subaru dealer & took along with her the container of the synthetic blend I had used. She asked them to use just regular oil as they wanted over $ 80.00 with synthetic. They told her if they now used regular oil it would ruin her engine.I think her being a woman they are taking her for a ride. I feel sure you can switch from a synthetic blend to regular oil with no problems. I hope Tester will reply to this & others of course.This is not a turbo charged engine.
