Yeah dammit another oil thread

DEpointfive0 · 01-27-2014, 06:12 PM

I need the TSB or that paperwork saying that for only the 2009, Nissan's Ester oil is recommened/required or will be covered under the service contract. I cannot find definitive evidence. (The end of every years' manual says Ester oil is recommended)

This POS dealer said it isn't covered even though previously the service manager said it was before... And I really don't feel like driving 75 miles for an oil change at a dealership that has a brain...

Thank you in advance!

Daym, even my pre paid gold maint plan says all models do not require ester oil

Well, you have a 2013, in other threads and from my knowledge it is because of the gen 1 VVEL or whatever.
Whatever the case may be... I want my damn ester oil!!! Lol

Which dealer if you don't mind me asking is giving you this hassle.

I too have the pre paid gold maint plan, as a compensation for oil consumption. I always get ester oil even when the dealer put in regular oil and I had to wait for another change out with ester.

This is North Bay Nissan in Sonoma CA.

Call corporate and have them explain it to the dealership.

i've done my own changes since i got my car with 1800 miles on it and have only used red line oil so far. my car runs amazing without taking it up the ass from a nissan dealer. when i went in for my steering lock recall they tried getting me to do my 30K mile service (i was at 24k) and the price was over $600 for fluid changes.....yea i'll glady do it myself.

also i know people who used to work at dealerships and oil change places......yea they put cheap stuff in your car and take home the good stuff.....just fyi.
