A note on engine oil from Hiroshi

Some engine oil can have different types, such as synthetic blend and full synthetic.
5W-30 is one example where you can choose which type of oil you want to use.
At Demuner Auto, we default to using a synthetic blend rated for 3000 miles and/or 3 months.
If a customer wanted to use full synthetic, they would pay more, but we would set the oil sticker for 7500 miles and 6 months. Other shops may have their own preferences on the oil change interval for the full synthetic oils.
Some engine oils, such as 0W-20, will be specifically full synthetic.
Customers can find which oil their vehicle takes on the oil cap or owner's manual.
Feel free to ask me any questions, happy to help.

Choosing the Right Motor Oil: Your choice (synthetic, blend, high-mileage, or conventional) depends on climate, driving style, engine age, and vehicle manufacturer specs.
Full Synthetic: Best for demanding performance, extreme temperatures, and towing. Offers superior protection, fuel efficiency, and can boost horsepower. Consider if you face harsh conditions or heavy use.
Synthetic Blend: A cost-effective mix offering many synthetic benefits like better oxidation and cold-weather performance. A good upgrade from conventional.
Conventional: Suitable for light-duty, newer cars with average mileage and simpler engines.
High Mileage: Formulated for vehicles with over 75,000 miles to help reduce oil consumption, leaks, and emissions.
Consult your mechanic to determine the ideal oil for your vehicle's needs.
