Semi-Synthetic Oil Change

Regular Oil Change Maintenance

Getting the most out of your Chevy’s combustion engines requires regular oil changes when specified in the owner’s manual. Oil Changes promote engine cleanliness, peak component lubrication, and extended life. Chevy owners with higher-mile engines can switch from conventional to semi-synthetic oil for improved viscosity and internal component protection.

Synthetic-Blend Motor Oil

There are three types of motor oil: full-synthetic, synthetic blend, and conventional. Synthetic motor oils are chemically engineered to reduce impurities and improve performance properties. Synthetic blend oil is a mixture of synthetic base and conventional oils. Although synthetic-blend motor oil does not provide the same level of refinement as full-synthetic oil, it is adequate for several Chevrolet models. You get the advantage of a slightly lower price with synthetic-blend motor oil. If you are unsure which type of engine oil is recommended for your vehicle, we suggest you consult with our expert technicians at Mark Wahlberg Chevrolet of Worthington.

Service Interval for Semi-Synthetic Oil Change

The service interval for an engine oil change depends on several factors such as type of engine oil, environmental conditions, regular replacement of engine oil filter, and more. Under normal conditions, you can expect your Chevy to require an oil change every 5,000 to 7,500 miles with synthetic-blend motor oil. To maximize the oil change interval, you should consider full-synthetic oil. Keep in mind that it is always best to follow the vehicle manufacturer's recommendation for service intervals and the type of engine oil for your vehicle.
