Ive noticed some people post that a synthetic oil may boost MPG slightly but I've noticed a lot of people post that synthetic fluids will boost MPG. Why? I've also seen several post that synthetic fluids will boost MPG more than synthetic oil. Why?
If the improved MPG is true, I will strongly consider going with synthetic. I would probably change the rear differential and definitely the automatic transmission fluid. What else should I consider changing? I have a Lexus GS400 which I believe calls for Toyota IV transmission fluid. The oil in the vehicle is already synthetic. Is Valvoline Maxlife still highly regarded here, synthetic, and compatible with my vehicle? What about Amsoil's products?
