Unfortunately, the Motul costs even a bit more than the Nissan stuff. Better value for the money though.
You know, this is what I thought as well ........ dino with ester additives. The G37 link in this thread stated group V synthetic, which I think is incorrect, unless you can classify as a group V synthetic as dino with additives.
