Do I Need High Mileage Oil?

What is High Mileage Oil?

High mileage oil is designed specifically for vehicles over 75,000 miles or 100,000 miles, depending on who you ask.  High mileage oil contains several special additives that are not found in other kinds of oil. These additives are sealants. They swell the internal seals in your car's engine. These seals tend to shrink or become misaligned through age and use. This is the main cause of oil leaks and other types of leaks in your vehicle. Thus, the main benefit of high mileage oil over other types of oil is that it will reduce any leaks your vehicle may have. Of course, older vehicles with higher mileage are more likely to have such leaks and require this type of oil during the next oil change.
 

The Benefits of High Mileage Oil

As previously mentioned, the main benefit of high mileage oil is that it will reduce any leaks your vehicle may have. This can help new vehicles maintain appropriate levels of oil. The usage of high mileage oil may prevent you from having to get a premature oil change due to a bad leak. Also, it will reduce the chances that you will be driving around with an insufficient amount of oil to lubricate your engine. This can happen if you have a severe leak for a long time and do not notice it. If you drive around without enough oil for your engine, the wear and tear on various components will be greatly increased.
