The Importance of Routine INFINITI Oil Change Service

All vehicles require routine maintenance like oil changes, tire rotations, and brake service. Your INFINITI needs a specific type of oil to keep its engine functioning smoothly. When it’s time for an oil change, you’ll have the choice between conventional vs. synthetic oil. If you bring your INFINITI to Lupient INFINITI Milwaukee in West Allis, your service advisor will recommend the best engine oil for your vehicle’s condition and mileage.

Features and Benefits of Synthetic Oil

Most late-model vehicles benefit from full synthetic oil and synthetic blend motor oils. Manufacturers engineer synthetic motor oil to last longer than conventional oils. Synthetic oils often include additives that help reduce engine wear. Because full synthetic and synthetic blend oils lubricate longer than conventional oil, they have higher price tags.

Synthetic motor oil lasts longer than conventional oil, so the higher price balances out in the long run. When you use synthetic oil in your INFINITI, you can drive between 6,000 and 10,000 miles before needing another oil change. For the best engine protection, conventional oil needs to be changed every 3,000 miles or once per season.

If you have an older INFINITI with high mileage, synthetic oil isn’t the best choice. Synthetic oil has a smaller molecular structure than conventional oil, so it is more likely to leak and cause engine problems.

Why Choose Conventional Oil for Your INFINITI

Because conventional oil is not processed as much as synthetic oil, it is less expensive. Conventional oil needs more frequent oil changes every 3,000 miles, which is more frequent than full synthetic motor oil change intervals. The difference between synthetic oil vs. conventional oil is that conventional oil is crude oil, while synthetic is manufactured oil.

Older vehicles benefit from conventional oil because it is thicker and lubricates the gaps between engine parts. If you use your vehicle to tow or you spend significant time in extreme temperatures or stop-and-go traffic, your vehicle will benefit from using conventional oil.

Your INFINITI owner’s manual recommends the best motor oil for your vehicle’s engine and mileage. Choosing between synthetic and conventional oil can affect your fuel economy and engine performance.
