engine oil
What kind of oil do you use?
Would you recommend synthetic oil for 1995-99 VQ30 |

Re: engine oil
Unless your car burns or leaks oil, go synthetic.
I use Mobil1 5w-30 w/ Nissan OEM oil filter.

Re: engine oil
Mobil 1 10W30 full synthetic here...I go about 5,000 miles in between changes and you shouldn't really go any further(or is it farther?) than 10,000 miles between changes if you want to keep your engine in good shape.

Re: engine oil
I use mobil one, no reason to use anything else. 5k-7k miles is just fine for synthetic, although I still change at every 3k since I'm under warranty.
