It doesnt matter which you use regular or synthetic. Synthetic will just cost twice as much.

Regular oil doesnt "break down" it just gets contaminated and needs to be re-refined.

Synthetic gets contaminated too just like regular.

Thats why you change it.

One good thing FI doesnt put gasoline into the oil like carbs did thats why the change intervals are longer.
