Does synthetic oil last longer?
It's time for another oil change! I would love to have a little more time between oil changes. Does synthetic oil last longer?

Yes! Synthetic oils last longer between oil changes.
Conventional oil
needs to be changed every 3,000 miles. However, you can go twice as far between oil changes with advancements in synthetic lubricants. The actual recommended mileage varies between brands, so you’ll need to look into that before deciding which synthetic oil to use. That said, synthetic oils can keep your vehicle running smoothly for 5,000 to 20,000 miles.
Car ownership can be expensive. And following maintenance best practices now, like synthetic oil, can protect your car from major repairs later. Having the right coverage for your vehicle should be part of your maintenance routine.
