FAQ: Full Synthetic Oil in Lebanon — SRS Edition

- What is the difference between full synthetic and semi-synthetic oil?

Answer:
Full synthetic oil is entirely engineered for performance, offering superior resistance to breakdown, extreme temperatures, and sludge. Semi-synthetic blends synthetic oil with conventional oil, providing moderate protection but not the same durability as full synthetic like SRS ViVA 1 SLV 5W-30.

- Is full synthetic oil worth the extra cost?

Answer:
Yes. While it’s more expensive upfront, full synthetic oil lasts longer, protects your engine better, and improves fuel efficiency — saving you money on maintenance and gas in the long run, especially in Lebanon’s varied climate.

- How often should I change full synthetic oil?

Answer:
With premium oils like SRS ViVA 1 SLV, oil change intervals can range from 10,000 to 15,000 km, depending on your driving habits. For harsh driving conditions (e.g., mountainous roads or city traffic), you may want to change it a bit earlier.

- Can I switch to synthetic oil in an older car?

Answer:
Absolutely. Full synthetic oil can actually help clean sludge from older engines and reduce wear. Just ensure your engine is well-maintained and check for any pre-existing leaks.

- Which viscosity grade is best for Lebanon?

Answer:
A 5W-30 like SRS ViVA 1 SLV Top is ideal for Lebanon. It provides excellent cold start performance in the mountains and strong protection in Beirut’s hot summer traffic.
