Can the lubricant oil make engine feel different than before?
i bought a new car so it came with the factory's engine oil and i made sure i didnt have to replace the oil earlier than the oil life indicator's indication (because I was told by 3 different technicians - two from a dealer and one from a oil change shop - the new vehicles no more carry the problems with break-in oil or something like that).. so I changed it at like 7k miles at JIFFY LUBE where they use the synthetic oil and ever since the first oil change, my car was driven about 500 miles. And recently I notice it makes a little different acceleration when I pedal between 40-60mph.
So my question is, does the engine oil cause this kind of change?Can the lubricant oil make engine feel different than before?
Better oil or lower viscosity oil can often make a noticeable improvement, but on a new engine the piston rings are probably just starting to seat (break in) properly so you should be starting to get better compression too.Can the lubricant oil make engine feel different than before?
synthetic oil is different in composition...
yeah itll prolly make a difference because dealers use plain ol oil lol the non synthetic stuff its just the way the oil lubricates the parts of your engine no big deal
the better the oil the better the engine will get lubricated,and it will also help it to run a little smoother,the best oil for this is a synthetic oil ,they lubricate a lot better and last a lot longer than conventional oils do,they are worth the extra cost ,good luck.
Yes oil can certainly make this sort of difference.
Dodgeman- if you read this, do some research on oil- there are some non synthetic oils which will outperform synthetics, based on their superior load carrying abilities. But in most cases, on average- synthetic VS mineral, synthetic is typically better.
Cheers
The car is just in the process of breaking in. It will feel different for a while as it adapts to being used. I would say change your oil every 3K, not 7!!!
