Car Oil Types

What are the Different Types of Motor Oil?

When you come into Van Hyundai for a routine oil change, there are different motor oil products that we can use for the process. We offer affordable conventional products, but we can also recommend high-quality synthetic oil. Our certified technicians are here to provide you with excellent guidance and recommendations for routine maintenance that is based on:

• The location where you are living
• The driving habits that you have when you're behind the wheel
• The amount of mileage that's on your odometer
• The overall age of your engine
• Information that's included in your owner's manual regarding oil change frequency

Full Synthetic Motor Oil

It's an investment to use full synthetic motor oil for your routine oil changes, but it is also worth it when you look at the increased efficiency you experience. Synthetic oil is designed to provide you with high viscosity, resistance to oxidation, and prevention of sludge formation. Vehicles that go between high temperatures and low temperatures benefit from full synthetic.

Synthetic Blend Motor Oil

A conventional motor oil combined with synthetic motor oil with additives included is considered a synthetic blend motor oil. This variety is beneficial if you're concerned with oxidation.

Conventional Motor Oil

Not all vehicles are packing on the mileage, and they may be driven around the same area with the same weather all year round. This is when conventional oil is affordable and practical.

High Mileage Motor Oil

A high mileage motor oil is beneficial when you have an older vehicle with a lot of mileage. The exact recommendation is to make the switch once your car has hit 75,000 miles. This oil reduces emissions output, increases overall efficiency, and prevents oil leaks through seal conditioners.

We'll talk to you about the criteria that we've listed above. We can make an appropriate recommendation that will fit into your budget while benefiting your automobile for years to come.
