Synthetic Motor Oil Can Provide Superior Protection
It´s no secret in the auto industry that synthetic motor oil can provide superior protection over standard petroleum based motor oils. Given that both synthetic and petroleum based oils are changed at the proper intervals either one will yield sufficient protection for your engine in all conditions. The key here is changing your oil at proper intervals, you must be prompt. Running any oil past its peak will result in a lot of contamination build-up in your oil. These contaminates come from many sources and instead of boring you with the details I will just tell you that accelerated internal engine wear and irreversible damage to your engine is the result.
We see oil changes that are grossly over their change intervals all of the time. We can usually predict the outcome of this with good accuracy and its not cheap for the owner. Why not put money in the bank by changing your oil on time and getting maximum performance from your vehicle. Our personal oil change intervals are 2,500 to 3,000 miles for petroleum-based oils and 5,000 to 7,500 miles for synthetic. These intervals vary with driving and climate conditions.
Customers tell us that their biggest reason for going past their proper oil change interval is the fact that they have busy home lives and busy work schedules. We have convinced many customers to switch to synthetic oil just for the simple fact that they only have to change their oil half as much. Although synthetic oil does cost more the convenience is worth it to them. If you would like a cost comparison for you vehicle just give us a call.
