Can engine oil brands be switched?

[LaAmelia]

It is possible to switch brands, but it is important to note that the type of engine oil should not be changed. For example, if the vehicle previously used fully synthetic oil, it is essential to continue using fully synthetic oil after switching brands. This helps minimize the engine's adaptation time and ensures optimal engine performance. Engine oils are categorized into three types: the first is conventional mineral oil, the second is semi-synthetic oil, and the third is fully synthetic oil. Conventional mineral oil should be replaced every 5,000 kilometers or six months. Semi-synthetic oil should be replaced every 7,500 kilometers or nine months, and fully synthetic oil should be replaced every 10,000 kilometers or one year. When changing the engine oil, the oil filter should also be replaced simultaneously.
