There are many factors to consider when choosing between conventional oil and synthetic oil, as there are significant differences between the two. Conventional and synthetic oil both start as crude oil, then go through a refinement process to create their base oils. Conventional oil is nearly complete at this juncture, but the base of synthetic oil is then sent through a chemically engineered process that allows it increase efficiency. The additives and detergents that are added to synthetic oil help it to combat issues, such as engine sludge and also help drivers to accrue more mileage between oil changes. Some vehicles require synthetic oil, while other vehicles may function adequately with regular maintenance, regardless of oil type. If you happen to have questions about the best type of oil for your vehicle or are in need of an oil change and want the best possible care, consult our service center today at Poway Honda and speak with one of our experienced staff members.
