Motor oil is made from crude oil and is used to lubricate, clean,
and cool engines. Types of motor oil include conventional,
synthetic, diesel, bio-based, hybrid (blends of conventional and
synthetic), and recycled oils. Motor oil varies in weight and
viscosity, as well as additives that some manufacturers add to
the oil during the refining process. A numerical code system
created by the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) grades motor
oils according to viscosity--the higher the number between 0 and
60, the more viscous (thicker) the oil is. Most consumer motor
oils are graded by two numbers, with the first number indicating
cold weather (Winter or "W") performance.
SAE 5W-20
---------
This oil has a weight of SAE 5W-20, meaning it has an SAE
viscosity rating of 5 in cold temperatures and a rating of 20 at
normal operating temperature. Always check your vehicle's owner's
manual to verify that this is the correct weight of motor oil for
your vehicle.
Conventional Motor Oil
----------------------
This oil is a conventional motor oil, meaning it is refined from
crude oil or petroleum products. Conventional motor oils may or
may not have additives included after refining. Conventional
motor oils are more versatile than synthetic or hybrid motor
oils, because they are suitable for use with nearly all types of
modern vehicle engines, from cars and trucks to motorcycles,
ATVs, farm equipment, and more.
High Mileage Oil
----------------
This oil is primarily designed for use in high-mileage cars and
trucks, including both older vehicles and new vehicles that see
heavy long-distance use. Extra additives are included to minimize
compression loss, and to condition rubber seals and kets to
prevent fluid leakage in older or high-mileage vehicles.

Valvoline's MaxLife Higher Mileage Motor Oil - Fight the Four
Major Causes of Engine Breakdown
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Keeping your higher mileage car on the road means doing
everything you can to protect it from engine breakdown.
MaxLife motor oil extends the life of higher mileage engines by
fighting the four major causes of breakdown--leaks, deposits,
sludge and friction. The synthetic blend formula contains our
Multi-Life additive system designed to combat these problems
unique to older engines. In fact, no leading conventional motor
oil is formulated to protect higher mileage engines better.
Engine breakdown is a greater risk when you demand more from
your engine. Higher mileage motor oil lasts longer and provides
your engine with the added protection it needs so you can keep
your engine running smoothly.

Frequently Asked Questions About Valvoline's MaxLife
----------------------------------------------------
What is the difference between MaxLife Synthetic Blend motor oil
and MaxLife Synthetic motor oil?
MaxLife Synthetic Blend combines synthetic and conventional
motor oils to improve performance and mileage without having
to convert to a full synthetic formula. MaxLife Synthetic motor
oil is fully synthetic and offers the greatest protection
available.
I mixed MaxLife Synthetic Blend and MaxLife Synthetic; will this
cause a problem?
Mixing synthetic and synthetic blended oils will not cause any
problems. The oils are compatible.
Do I have to wait until my car reaches 75,000 miles before I can
use MaxLife?
Valvoline MaxLife motor oil is designed for high mileage
vehicles of 75,000 miles or more. However, it is perfectly
acceptable for use in new or used vehicles with less than 75,000
miles.
My owner's manual says to only use motor oil featuring the
American Petroleum Institute (API) starburst. I don't see it on
the MaxLife bottle. Is it still ok to use in my car?
MaxLife is formulated with specialized additives that help fight
the problems typically found in higher mileage engines. Because
MaxLife's formula is focused for maximum performance in stopping
the four major causes of engine breakdown - Leaks, Deposits,
Sludge, and Friction - it was not formulated to exceed API
criteria for fuel economy (also known as the API starburst on
packaging labels). However, the difference between average fuel
economy results for MaxLife and other motor oils that meet the
API criteria is still very minimal. More importantly, if you want
the extra protection that MaxLife offers then you can use MaxLife
in any vehicles that specifies enhanced fuel economy motor oils
(API starburst).
Valvoline's Engine Guarantee Program
can cover your engine if it fails Is MaxLife covered by the
Valvoline Engine Guarantee program?
Yes. The Valvoline Engine Guarantee covers your engine if it
fails, hassle free. If you have 125,000 miles or less, using
Valvoline's MaxLife can give you an engine guarantee up to
225,000 miles. Registration required, visit
www.engineguarantee.com ( http://www.engineguarantee.com ) to
learn more.
Has MaxLife always been a synthetic blend?
MaxLife Synthetic Blend motor oil is actually the same product
as regular MaxLife. MaxLife has always been a synthetic blend
oil; we just now label the product that way. It is the same oil
as before. As long as you have used MaxLife, you have used
synthetic blended oil.
Once MaxLife is installed in my car, how long does it take for
the oil to start sealing and protecting my engine?
The oil will start conditioning seals immediately. Other
protective benefits vary by vehicle.
