A: The best way to determine the right engine oil for your car is to consult your vehicle’s owner’s manual. It will specify the recommended oil viscosity (e.g., 5W-30) and whether synthetic or conventional oil is preferred. Factors like the car's age, engine type, and operating conditions also play a role in selecting the appropriate oil. Our product selector can help guide you in the right direction.
A: The frequency of oil changes depends on the type of oil, your driving habits, and the manufacturer’s recommendations. Generally, conventional oil requires changes every 3,000 to 5,000 miles, while synthetic oils can last 7,500 to 15,000 miles between changes. Always refer to your vehicle’s owner’s manual for specific guidance.
A: For high-performance vehicles, a full synthetic oil with the appropriate viscosity rating as recommended in the vehicle's owner's manual. Synthetic oils are preferred for their superior performance in extreme conditions and ability to maintain engine cleanliness. Always ensure the oil meets the specifications set by the vehicle manufacturer and consider the driving conditions to choose the best option. The Caltex Havoline range offers fully synthetic high-performance oils.
