synthetic oil
Lab-made engine fluid
Synthetic oil is lubricant manufactured through chemical processes rather than refined from crude petroleum.
It offers advantages over conventional oil—better performance at temperature extremes, longer intervals between changes, and reduced engine wear.
My mechanic recommends synthetic oil for older cars.
Most modern vehicles can use either synthetic or conventional oil.
