Cheap off-brand oils may be just as good as store brand or known brands but haven't had their quality independently verified, so it might not be.
That's all I think I know about that.

So... even though the OP says he "knows" you can't go back-and-forth- you are saying you CAN (between regular and synthetic)?
By grade of oil- you mean, like, 10w-30, 5w-30, 5w-40 and the like?
The rest, about certification, I get.
Thank you.
