How Often Should Full Synthetic Engine Oil Be Changed?
1 Answers
Full synthetic engine oil is generally recommended to be changed once a year or after approximately 10,000 kilometers of driving. Below is a detailed introduction to different types of engine oil: Mineral Engine Oil: Derived from crude oil, mineral engine oil typically has a low cost. However, due to its tendency to oxidize more easily, various imported additives are included. Its service life is about six months. Semi-Synthetic Engine Oil: Although more expensive to refine, semi-synthetic oil offers excellent oxidation resistance, making it a high-quality long-lasting engine oil with a service life of about twelve months. Considering the balance between price and quality, semi-synthetic oil is the most widely applicable. Full Synthetic Engine Oil: This is a chemically synthesized engine oil that can maintain its lubricating properties even under conditions where the base oil deteriorates.
