One of the most important decisions you can make for your Mitsubishi is to know which oil change your vehicle needs. They vary based upon the type of oil and price range. If you have ever wondered what the difference was, now is your chance. Read on to learn about the various types of motor oil you can use in your Mitsubishi that provide various levels of protection for your engine.
This oil change is a combination oil blend of conventional oil and synthetic oil. It is used when Mitsubishi owners are switching from conventional oil to full-synthetic oil. It is not the most expensive, but it is effective in protecting your engine and keeping it cool from one oil change to the next. Many Mitsubishi owners start this oil change process around 50k miles, as the Mitsubishi becomes a couple of years old and the engine starts to age.
This oil change is one of the most expensive oil change options, but the oil that is used is completely synthetic, and the purest option for your engine. If you are not able to make it to your next oil change for a week or two, this oil can hold you over a few hundred miles. It has the least effect on the engine parts as it circulates through the engine, keeping it cool. Once your Mitsubishi surpasses 90k miles, it is time to make the switch to full-synthetic oil if you have not done so already.
Up until only a couple of decades ago, conventional oil was the only oil change option. It is refined from crude oil and is still very much effective in keeping your engine’s moving parts well lubricated and cool. You can continue to use a conventional oil change with your Mitsubishi, especially if you are looking at the cost, but if you want the maximum protection for your engine, we recommend considering the value that synthetic oil offers.
