Synthetic Oil Change Service FAQs

What makes synthetic oil different from conventional oil?

Is synthetic oil better for your car?

How often should I change synthetic oil?

Does synthetic oil cause leaks?

Synthetic oil is man-made and designed to provide superior lubrication and protection. Unlike conventional oil, which is refined from crude oil, synthetic oil is chemically engineered to resist heat, prevent buildup, and keep your engine running smoother for longer.

Yes - in most cases. Synthetic oil offers maximum protection against friction, heat, and sludge, especially for high-mileage or newer engines. It keeps components cleaner, reduces wear, and helps your car perform more efficiently in both extreme cold and high temperatures.

Even with its longer lifespan, synthetic oil should be changed regularly to maintain performance. We recommend every 3,000 to 5,000 miles, depending on your driving habits and manufacturer guidelines. Regular changes keep your engine clean and prevent early wear.

No — synthetic oil doesn’t cause leaks. However, because it’s thinner than conventional oil, it can reveal leaks that already exist due to worn seals or gaskets. If you notice a leak after switching to synthetic, it’s a sign of a pre-existing issue, not the oil itself.

Why Choose a Synthetic Oil Change?

A synthetic oil change gives your engine cleaner lubrication, better protection, and longer performance life. While conventional oil can break down quickly under stress, synthetic oil is engineered to resist heat and oxidation - meaning fewer deposits, smoother operation, and improved fuel economy over time.

The Benefits of Synthetic Oil

  • Superior engine protection - Reduces friction and wear on critical components.

  • Cleaner performance - Resists sludge buildup and keeps internal parts free of residue.

  • Temperature resilience - Maintains performance in both high heat and freezing cold.

  • Improved efficiency - Helps engines run smoother and use fuel more effectively.

  • Longer lifespan - Requires fewer oil changes over the life of your vehicle.

What Is Synthetic Blend Oil?

Also known as semi-synthetic, synthetic blend oil mixes conventional and synthetic oils to deliver better protection than conventional alone - at a more budget-friendly price point. It’s a smart middle ground for drivers who want added performance without full synthetic cost.

What Synthetic Oil Does Express Oil Use?

We proudly use Valvoline synthetic motor oils for most oil change services. However, if your manufacturer recommends another brand or specific formula, our technicians can accommodate that upon request.

Can You Switch to Synthetic Oil?

Absolutely. Switching from conventional to synthetic is safe for virtually all engines. It can help reduce future buildup, improve lubrication, and extend your engine’s life - especially if you’re transitioning from high-mileage use or driving in harsh conditions.

The Bottom Line

Synthetic oil doesn’t just last longer - it protects better. Whether you choose full synthetic or a synthetic blend, our technicians ensure your car gets the right oil for your engine’s specific needs. Each oil change includes a free 20-point courtesy inspection to check belts, fluids, lights, and filters, so you leave with total confidence. Stop by any Express Oil Change & Tire Engineers location for a professional synthetic oil change that keeps your car clean, cool, and road-ready - all in about 10 minutes.
