Well I'm at my Nissan Dealer getting my 1st oil change @ 1500mi. Sure enough the service rep had no idea about the Nissan Ester. They wanted to put regular oil in the car until I pointed out that the 370z required the Nissan Ester which of course they had no clue of. (Thanks to semtex for the pic which I printed out and put in my back pocket just in case.) I asked them if they sold the Nissan oil and sure enough, a knowledgeable parts rep brings out 5 quarts from the back room. They quoted me about $95 for the complete oil/filter change. Fortunately, my first service is free.
![]() The 370 is now in the back getting the correct oil changed out. Thanks to this forum and all the great input you guys provide. PS. I also expressed my concern regarding the high oil temp while in traffic (240F). I don't expect them to find anything, but at least they'll have a record of my concern. Nissan Ester Oil (1qt) 5w30 - $12.99 Motul 300V (2L or 2.1qts) 5w30 - $31.95 (was recommended replacement per the parts rep after the first few oil changes) |
