Synthetic Oil Change

Synthetic Motor Oil 101

We’ve been around long enough at Vision Kia East Rochester to witness the industry shift from conventional oil as the standard to an increase in synthetic oil as the recommendation. This is because synthetic engine oil outperforms conventional at every measurable performance mark including the resistance of thermal breakdown and the retention of viscosity for longer due to the improved molecular design. Synthetic oil does cost slightly more but this additional cost is often negligible when considering how it lubricates the engine better. Due to the advancements, full-synthetic oil comes with an extended change schedule up to 10,000 miles.

Can I Switch from Conventional to Synthetic?

Yes, this is a common practice for older vehicles as synthetic oil can help protect higher-mileage engines better. If your Kia has accumulated 75,000 miles or more, this might be an excellent engine-protecting decision that we usually recommend. On your next trip to Vision Kia, we invite you to speak with a knowledgeable service advisor about your vehicle and making the switch.
