Synthetic Vs Conventional Oil

Synthetic vs Conventional

Many drivers know that synthetic oil offers better performance and benefits than conventional oil, but the difference is more than just that. The contrasts between synthetic and conventional oil are a result of advancements in oil technology over time. The end result is oil that treats your car’s engine with the care and protection it deserves.

• While conventional oil will certainly get the job done, it doesn’t excel in the ways that synthetic oil does. Conventional oil is simply refined, while synthetic oil is refined, distilled, and purified. Essentially, synthetic oil is specifically created for the modern engine.
• Synthetic oil doesn’t have nearly as many impurities as conventional oil, allowing it to keep an engine cleaner over time. Sludge buildup and deposits of debris are far less common and take much longer to accumulate with synthetic oil.
• In addition to preventing sludge and debris buildup, synthetic oil also offers better protection for moving parts within the engine. Conventional oil breaks down over time, but synthetic oil can maintain its properties for far longer.
• Generally speaking, conventional oil doesn’t mix well with extreme hot and cold temperatures. Synthetic oil, on the other hand, has been practically designed to withstand whatever the modern engine may experience, and that includes extreme temperatures.
