Frequently Asked Questions About Valvoline MaxLife Full Synthetic Motor Oil


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 gas 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 Full Synthetic Motor Oil can give you an engine guarantee up to 300,000 miles. Registration required, visit 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.

How is MaxLife Synthetic motor oil different from SynPower Synthetic motor oil?
MaxLife Synthetic motor oils contain stop leak additives to help with oil consumption and extra detergents to help with the cleaning of an older engine.

Why is there no mileage limit given on MaxLife Synthetic motor oil? Mobil 1 says 15,000 miles and Amsoil says 25,000 miles?
Valvoline recommends following the oil change intervals recommended in your owner's manual no matter what type of oil you use. Most manufacturers recommend every 3-months/3,000 miles.
