In order for the parts to keep working seamlessly, it is essential that this friction is reduced, and any sort of overheating is avoided. This task is best done by oil, which keeps the engines well-lubricated and absorbs any excessive heat. Given that car oils are available in different types, as a car owner, it is in your best interest that you have a fair knowledge about them so that car maintenance becomes as effortless an exercise as possible for you. Premium Oil This is the conventional oil that is available in different levels of viscosity. This type of oil is largely used in light-duty vehicles, and needs to be changed/replaced once in every 4 months, or at least twice a year. It is highly recommended that the oil is changed as soon as the oil-change indicator in the car lights up. Synthetic Oil This type of oil is specially formulated for sophisticated engines, such as those found in Mercedes-Benz. They promise a high degree of performance in aspects such as protection against deposits and viscosity index. They are considerably expensive than the conventional oils but are completely worth the money spent on them as they perform well across a wide range of temperatures. Synthetic Blend Oil As the name suggests, synthetic blend oil consists of a dash of synthetic mixed with the conventional oil. This type of oil is formulated with the aim to offer protection to vehicles enduring heavy loads and/or working in high temperatures, especially SUVs. Given that the synthetic blend oil doesn't evaporate as easily, they reduce the loss of oil and increase fuel efficiency. Yet another benefit of this is that it costs much less than fully synthetic. Now that you have a clear picture regarding the various types of car oils available, you must also understand that changing your car oil will require an oil-filter. Like everything else, even the oil-filter you chose must be based on the recommendation of your car maker. That being said, you must ensure that the filter you pick for your car isn't oversized, or else make sure that you fill sufficient oil for it to function flawlessly. Just in case, you're still unsure of which type of oil or oil filter you ought to use, feel free to get in touch with a reputable car service centre, and the experts in there will be happy to help.
