Synthetic vs Mineral

  • Mineral Oil is made from crude oil, which holds a lot of impurities
  • Synthetic Oil is man-made and is extremely clean
  • Mineral Oil has quicker thermal breakdown, creating engine wear
  • Synthetic Oil far outlasts Mineral Oil before thermal breakdown
  • Mineral Oil thickens (Oxidation) quicker creating sludge in the engine
  • Synthetic Oil has superior resistance Oxidation

 

The Drum on Synthetic Oils

  • Superior thermal breakdown against mineral
  • Protects against harmful deposits within the engine
  • Keeps your engine running cleaner
  • Resistant to oil thickening (Oxidation)
  • Lower oil consumption under high speed
  • Can increase horsepower
  • Longer drain intervals means less servicing
  • Can assist in better fuel economy
  • Better protection in hot & cold climates
  • Increased protection at start up
  • Much better for the environment

What Exactly Does This Mean For You?

  • Increased Fuel Economy – up to 5% (depending on driving conditions)
  • Increased life span for your engine – better protection
  • Extended service interval
  • Improved oxidation resistance – less oil thickening
  • Improved deposit protection – harmful deposits form less quickly
  • Better protection in hot and cold climates – faster start-ups
  • Full warranty protection and superior on-going engine protection – Not only is your new car warranty protected by complying with manufacturers recommendations, but how many times does your car miraculously breakdown just after your warranty expires?
