Valvoline synpower 0W-20 for 10,000 miles

[Corollaman]

2012 Corolla calls for one year or 10,000 oil change intervals with synthetic OW-20 oil. Is Valvoline capable?

Wouldn't hesitate to use it. Synpower is a great oil.

Not enough information. Do you know the maintenance history and is the engine clean inside? Does it burn oil? What is your driving style?

If the factory manual says to use an API S(x) rated oil, and Valv SynPower meets those standards (It must) then don't worry about it, follow their recommendation and be a happy driver

I've owned since new. Mostly dino six month intervals, doesn't burn oil has 50,000 miles. A lot of short trips, with highway mixed in. Probably 9,000 miles a year.

at 9k a year, I'd run it for 9K and then change it. Synpower should be just fine.

Yes, I agree.
I'm running SynPower right now.

Any API-SN 0W-20 will do the job. These engines aren't particularly picky on oil, so the sky's the limit when it comes to what to use.

Valvoline is an excellent choice. I wouldn't hesitate to use it.
