Frequent short trips are considered a severe driving condition that can lead to premature engine wear. Castrol SYNTEC Blend is specially formulated to provide maximum wear protection under any severe driving condition, including towing and hauling, severe temperatures, and stop and go traffic.

Regularly changing a vehicle's engine oil is necessary to ensure proper engine function as well as to ensure that a vehicle engine lasts for as long as possible. Oil changes remove old, dirty engine oil and replace it with clean, fresh engine oil.

Regular oil changes provide several benefits:

  • lubricates your engine so that it runs more smoothly
  • cleans your engine by removing deposits and sludge
  • cools your engine and stabilizes operating temperature
  • protects your engine by reducing friction and wear
  • increases engine performance and maximizes power
  • improves gas mileage and runs more efficiently

"Severe" Service Explained

Most vehicle manuals recommend that you service your vehicle more frequently if you drive in “severe” conditions. Most drivers are surprised at what counts for severe driving. In fact, for most drivers, “normal” driving habits are actually “severe”! “Severe” driving conditions include one or more of the following:

  • driving in stop and go traffic
  • driving in extremely hot or cold temperatures
  • driving at prolonged higher engine speeds
  • taking multiple trips averaging 5 to 10 miles in length
  • frequent cold start-ups and shut downs
  • extensive engine idling
  • towing and/or hauling heavy loads
  • driving in dusty or muddy conditions
  • driving in mountainous terrain

Protect your vehicle with proper maintenance to counteract the effects of severe driving.
