If your car sleeps in an apartment lot or a driveway from November to March, this is what we'd put in it. Synthetic stays thin enough to flow on a -20° morning, and that matters because most engine wear happens in the first few seconds after a cold start.
It also lasts longer. Most cars can go 7,500 to 10,000 miles on synthetic, so a lot of our customers only see us twice a year.
Who should run it
- Newer cars. Most 2015 and newer models call for it anyway.
- Anything with a turbo, since turbos run hot.
- Cars that park outside all winter.
- Anyone who'd rather not think about oil changes every couple of months.
Questions we get
Is it worth the extra money?
Usually, yes. It costs more per visit but lasts about twice as long, so per mile it ends up pretty close to regular oil. And it does a much better job on cold mornings.
Can I switch an older car to synthetic?
Sure. The old story about synthetic causing leaks in older engines is a myth. If you're past 75,000 miles, ask about high mileage synthetic.
