More and more manufacturers today design their engines specifically around the superior protection and performance properties of synthetic oils.
First, because your vehicle’s manufacturer requires it. There are many reasons people decide to use synthetic oil. (Often synthetic oil is referred to as “full synthetic” to distinguish it from a synthetic blend.) So you can think of conventional, synthetic blend and full synthetic oil as good, better, best. Both its price and protection levels are in between conventional and full synthetic oil. As the name suggests, synthetic blend is simply a mixture or blend of synthetic and conventional motor oils. Synthetic oil costs more than conventional oil, which is why Jiffy Lube ® also offers synthetic blend.
