Better Oil that the Nissan Ester? I was using Mobile 1 on my last oil change. Any suggestions??

Mobil 1 EP. Costs a little more than regular synthetic Mobil 1 but better additive package. Yes, both are better than Nissan Ester oil. None of these 3 are ester base oils.

If you want to spend money on higher ester base oils, then Redline or Amsoil Signature. Not neccesary for DD.

But if the Nissan oil costs less than M1 and it's readily available, it's ok for a DD.
