Yep synthetic usually good for newer cars with vpower gasoline. Its up to you though if you're looking for high mileage, then go for synthetic

lie from the pit of hell. He is good to use sythetic oil provided he doesn't notice any significant amount of slugde build up already in the engine or excessive oil burn.

Op, Use sythetic oil for more protection, You still can use that car for another 10 years or more using synthetic oil.

I appreciate your advice..thank you

Didn't know there was a rule that one must destroy any vehicle that one buys and that's it's a crime to have a car for 10 years or more.


Very foolish Nigerian mentality. If na so Oyinbo dey think, you for see Tokunbo buy?



@op fully synthetic oil is better than conventional oil. No contest.

For advanced engines like that Audi, definitely preferable. If you check the car manual, it's likely to be recommended.

It is extremely advisable if that's what the previous owners of that vehicle have been using.



However, like anything in the world, it's up to you. Na your money/pocket.


Conventional oil simply means you do oil changes at shorter intervals to be safe and increase the probability of having to buy a new engine sometime in the lifespan.

Oga use synthetic oil. The oil spec you should use can be found in the owner's manual for your car.

Just close eye use synthetic if you bought Tokunbo or the previous owner has not been using conventional.


Acura engine no cheap, make e no come be like say person save 10k per year, to come spend 400k after 3 years.

i will suggest you service with synthetic. it might seem expensive but truth is it offers the higher chance of getting the best out of that engine and even prolonging its life. synthetic oils have additives and detergents that help improve performance, engine protection and clean deposits within the engine.

abeg close eye and pamper that ride. and also pay attention to the quality of oil filter you use. doesnt make sense buying synthetic oil and den using fake/low quality oil filter with it. doesnt help at all. using top quality oil filter ensure that dirts in the oil are removed in order to ensure clean oil circulates within the engine and also during cold start that oil gets to circulate within the engine faster...
