Know Your Oil Types

Not all motor oil is the same, so it's important to know which one is right for you, which in many cases, is based on the age and mileage of your vehicle. Typically, when Mission Viejo, Anaheim, and Costa Mesa drivers go in for an oil change, it usually means you're going to get conventional motor oil put into your car. For most drivers, conventional motor oil is perfectly fine and will last you between 3,000-5,000 miles, depending on your vehicle.

For those who want more out of their oil, we recommend looking at synthetic-blend or full synthetic oil options. These oil options are typically used for high mileage engines as they contain additives that reduce friction to help keep the engine from being worn down as quickly. Synthetic-blend oil needs to be changed out every 7,500 miles, while full synthetic can last over 10,000 miles. These oil changes, as you might expect, are more expensive, but you will be able to go longer in between oil changes than with conventional.
