## Frequently asked questions

### Can I switch to synthetic oil?

Most modern engines can switch safely, and synthetics resist breakdown better. Follow the grade listed in your owner's manual.

### How often should oil be changed?

Many newer cars handle long intervals with synthetic oil, while older engines need more frequent changes. Check the manual rather than guessing.
