About 2 years ago I was trying to determine the correct oil change interval for synthetic oil. I remembered when mobil one first came out they were recomending 50,000 miles (US). Does anyone else remember that? I asked a mechanic and he said Oh No, that was then and this is now. So I called the 800 number and asked Mobil One directly. They recomend to use the interval required by the auto manufacturer.
My first impression was, so where is the benifit of using, and paying the premium, for synthetic oil? I understand that synthetics may protect better, but the real advantage to me was the increased lifespan of the oil. Maybe it would mean changing the oil filter half way there, but you should be able to get at least 25000 miles (US) from synthetic oil. What do you think?
