I use a fully synthetic oil in my car how many miles can I go between oil changes?
You should always follow the manufactures recommendations for your car. We believe that most drivers should use the "severe" schedule in or region, because of the amount of dust on rural roads, and the four seasons, that we experience. Also most of us don't commute more than 45 minutes, and we also generally don't properly warm up our vehicles before we take off on our way. Under these conditions we recommend the three month 3,000 mile interval for all types of vehicles.
What is does the "W" stand for in 5W30? This is part of the code for a multi-viscosity motor oil. The "W" actually stands for Winter. The code 5W, means the oil has a viscosity rating of 5 in the winter, and 30 in summer. Viscosity in laymans terms refers to the thickness of the motor oil. |
