The oil does matter. The best available is fully synthetics like Mobil 1
and Shell Helix fully synthetics. These oils are much superior to normal
mineral oils in just about every aspect. This is a know fact that is not
open to question.

Only if your vehicle is designed for the longer service life of such oils.
Using them, and changing them at 'dino' intervals hasn't shown them to
have any advantages over a good quality non or semi synthetic.
