Did you put Ester oil in your engine or you are assuming it came with it?




BTW, I went to my local dealer service department today. Asked the service guy, Do you guys use Ester oil? He looked at me like I was crazy.

Then I asked, What oil do you guys use on the 370Zs? He grabbed the phone and called someone, comes back to me and says "Valvoline 5W30".

Then he told me a couple war stories about the oil, I was rolling. Told him thanks and left.

I dropped the factory fill, whatever it was, and replaced it with Nissan's oil prior to storage.
