Then with this many miles on it I would NOT switch to a synthetic oil. I did this on one of my vehicles and it messed the motor right up. My opinion with that many miles on the car I recommend not switching to a synthetic oil. Stick with a good conventional oil, high mileage maybe, Just do your regular oil changes.
