Synthetic oil is more resistant to high temperatures than traditional motor oil. This means that it will break down less quickly and provide better protection for your engine in extreme conditions. Synthetic oil also does a better job lubricating your engine, reducing wear and tear over time.
In addition, synthetic oil typically contains fewer impurities than traditional motor oil, which means that it will not cause as much build-up in your engine over time.
