In theory, the Nissan oil has a higher affinity at the mollecular level to the DLC coated valve train -- in theory.
Supposedly, this is why Nissan recommends it and why it allegedly keeps the valve train running more smoothly. However, whether or not that holds true is not well established, nor is it known whether any other similar ester oil (or a non-ester based synthetic) would work just as well. I picked up the German 0-W30 -- looking forward to seeing how she runs with that.
