There are none. Changing your oil regularly and using the latest API grade will provide sufficient protection. It is extreme cases that synthetic helps out. Cases such as towing a heavy trailer in the desert summer. People that I have talked with and are not sucked in by the hype have had good luck with engine longevity. Another oft mentioned benefit is that engines do run cooler when under load. I do not know.
