Maserati Oil Changes and the Types of Motor Oil

When you schedule a Maserati oil change, you’ll see that there are so many options when it comes to types of oil. We’re highlighting the main types of oil at Maserati of Omaha to help you determine what type you need. 

Synthetic Motor Oil

We recommend that owners of new Maserati vehicles utilize synthetic oil. Synthetic oil is more expensive than conventional oil, although it has superior quality. Plus, you don’t have to change synthetic oil as often as conventional oil, which can help account for the added cost.

Synthetic oil is a man-made lubricant that contains additives that help improve its quality. They are recommended for premium and performance vehicles like a new Maserati car or SUV.

Conventional Motor Oil

Conventional oil is the most commonly used engine oil. This oil is made from refined crude oil. Typically, conventional oil is only recommended for light-duty vehicles with low mileage and a simple engine design.

Synthetic Blend Motor Oil

A synthetic blend is a combination of both synthetic and conventional oil. It can provide a good transition if you’re considering switching from one engine oil type to another. While it’s more expensive than conventional oil, it’s better quality and still more affordable than synthetic oil.

High-Mileage Motor Oil

High-mileage oil contains additives that help prevent engine issues in older cars, minimize oil leaks, and reduce fuel consumption. For the average driver, if your vehicle has over 100,000 miles, it’s time to make the switch. Some drivers may choose to start using a higher-mileage formulation earlier or later; what’s important is to talk to a technician who knows the vehicle and can steer you in the right direction.
