Hey guys, I have a 2012 370z and I got it used. The guy ran Mobil 1 through the car throughout it's whole life. I wanted to switch to Redline like I have in my other 370, but I am afraid that changing oil will damage the engine. A mechanic also told me if i switch then it will "smoothen down the camshafts." Does this sound correct or what do you guys recommend.They are both synthetic for sure, but does anybody have insight. The car has 22,600 on it now. I occasionally have been driving it on the weekends.
