Re: high mileage oil

On a high mileage engine (+150k) the best thing to do is change the oil more frequently (like every 2k instead of every 3k).

Re: high mileage oil

If you're not having leaks or oil burning issues due to engine "age", then I wouldn't be concerned with high mileage oil.

Re: high mileage oil

I just started using Valvoline Max-Life. It's been in a month, so I can't really say how it is. So far though, it is still clean looking and I haven't burned a drop.

As far as what is the better of the two, I think the experts feel they are both good.
