The Right Oil for Demanding Climates – Synthetic vs Conventional Oil – What’s best for your car in Malta?

Choosing between synthetic and conventional oil is a big decision for any car owner, especially when you live in a demanding climate, such as the one we have in Malta. With our hands-on experience, we can help you find the right choice for your vehicle.

For modern engines, especially turbocharged or high-performance ones, synthetic oil is the clear winner. It offers far better protection against the high engine temperatures common in hot summers, ensuring your engine runs at its best and the motor lasts longer. Our expertise also accounts for challenging conditions like humid, salt-laden air that is typical in the Mediterranean, where an oil with the right anti-corrosion additives is vital to prevent internal damage.

Notwithstanding, a quality conventional oil can still be a solid, budget-friendly choice for many older, less demanding vehicles. The age of the motor is a key factor here. For cars with higher mileage, we often suggest specific high-mileage blends that are formulated to condition seals and protect worn parts. [industry-specific bit to go here]
