How Often Should You Change Your Synthetic Oil

While there may not be a standard answer to this timeless inquiry

, general consensus from car enthusiasts, talk show hosts, car magazines and dealers estimate the right time to be around 5,000 miles, give or take the type and age of the vehicle.

Also, an equally daunting question for some has been the debate over whether or not to use synthetic motor oil. Believe it or not, once upon a time such liquids were not available to consumers or race car drivers. Then something spectacular happened in the 1970s no, not disco the creation of synthetic motor oil. Mobil 1 and Amsoil began marketing the stuff like gangbusters and in the decades that followed many others joined the bandwagon.

One of the advantages to synthetic, advocates chime, is that unlike regular oil, synthetic will not build up deposits in an engine, thus extending the life of your car. It should be noted as well that while the label may say "synthetic," synthetic oil does contain some natural ingredients.

With the advent of the miracle oil driving, enthusiasts and those who simply needed to get from point A to point B had a way to prolong the life of their pride in joy or rust bucket's engine. When a person enters an automotive store today, they are inundated with a wealth of choices and countless varieties of oil, both regular and synthetic. Now shopping for oil is as fun (or as complicated) as shopping for toothpaste and other handy essentials.

So the next time your car needs a synthetic oil change, thank those 70s scientists and remember to come back every 5,000 miles.
