Chevrolet Traverse Oil Change

Conventional Oil

Conventional motor oil is also called standard and regular oil because it was the original engine lubricant when the auto industry standardized oil in the 1930s. It is made with petroleum and has been advanced considerably since the early days to improve its viscosity and resistance to thermal breakdown. Conventional oil doesn’t perform as well as synthetic oil with a shorter change interval of 3,000 to 5,000 miles but it does come at a slightly lower price.

Semi-Synthetic Oil

Semi-synthetic is also called synthetic blend because it is described as a mix of conventional and full-synthetic oils. Although producing this oil is not as simple as mixing the two, it has a viscosity and change schedule between conventional and full-synthetic of every 5,000 to 7,500 miles.

Full-Synthetic Oil

Full-synthetic oil is an advanced engine oil technology with a smaller molecule, thinnest viscosity, and resists thermal breakdown better than the alternatives. It comes at a premium price but this premium delivers improved viscosity and a change interval every 10,000 miles.

Oil Changes & the Longest-Lasting Engine

Oil changes are the #1 maintenance service that promotes the longest-lasting engine. This is because oil changes help to keep the engine clean by removing accumulation and sludgy oil routinely while introducing a fresh lubricant that keeps the moving parts nicely lubricated and cool.
