The syn has 0% group two or group one. The blend has a nonzero amount of those. It could be 1%, it could be 99%, nobody knows.

I was asking what's the difference between Extended Protection High Mileage vs Maxlife Synthetic.

I was asking what's the difference between Extended Protection High Mileage vs Maxlife Synthetic.

I'll assume you know how to use their website.

The primary difference is that any "extended protection" oil must have higher oxidation resistance since oxidation is typically what ends an oil's service life.

"High mileage" just means seal conditioners are added.

FWIW, there is no product called "maxlife synthetic."-- there is this though:

So if you are asking about primarily what makes an oil "extended protection" or not, it's basically the oxidative stability (and cost) of the base oils.

Thanks. In spec sheet, which number indicates oxidation resistance?
