I already had Nissan Ester Oil in the car from the 3750 oil change.

My main point is that I'm not feeling that silky renewal feeling a had with a fresh
change including the Ester Oil. In other words, I couldn't even tell I changed my
oil with the Pennzoil 5W30

???? You can feel the difference after an oil change? You might want to invest in a new filter or perhaps change your oil more frequently if you can feel the difference.... if the oil is the same weight and both are synthetic its hard to imagine feeling a difference.....

Pennzoil = black pudding in your engine.

Point is, don't declare something is something unless you have proof FIRST, not second.

There was plenty of proof in the last engine I used Pennzoil in, when I had to change the valve cover gasket.

Nice try, but fail.

Penzoil makes one of the best oils out today. Penzoil Plat and Penzoil Ultra now. Blows M1 away in tests.
