Synthetic blend oil is a mix of conventional oil and synthetic motor oil that offers some of the benefits of full synthetic at a lower cost.
What is synthetic blend oil?
Synthetic blend (also called semi‑synthetic) combines regular mineral oil with a portion of synthetic base oil and additives.
This mix gives better resistance to breakdown, cleaner operation, and improved performance in extreme hot and cold conditions compared to straight conventional oil.
It usually sits in the middle in price: more than conventional, less than full synthetic.
When should you use synthetic blend oil?
Stadium Auto Service does not recommend using Synthetic blend oil in a German auto. Semi-Synthetic oil does not meet the engine oil requirements specified by German auto manufacturers. We recommend following the oil type and change interval specified by your vehicle’s manufacturer, or by a technician highly experienced with the service and repair of your vehicle's make and model.
