Hi,
At 39700 miles on my MINT 2005 Hyundai Elantra GLS sedan, I decided to switch over to synthetic and used Pennzoil Platinum
5W-30, with the OEM Hyundai oil filter.
Well, after 2 weeks now I can report that there is absolutely
NO improvement in mileage whatsoever.
I should have listened to you guys who told me this would be
a waste of money. Since 5 miles on my Elantra, I have been using
Motorcraft Syn Blend 5W-30, with the OEM filter and doing 5000
oil changes faithfully. Is has been working perfectly for the
engine, as it is SUPER smooth and quiet.
I guess I will just run the Pennzoil I have for 6000 miles, than switch back to the MC and save my money.
Synthetics seem to be REALLY overrated...at least in my case!
