Welcome first and foremost

Now with the formalities out of the way

I would encourage the use of the advance google search

This will help in finding multiple existing threads on the topics you are looking answers for.




Now to your question

You can take your own Full Synthetic oil and premium filter and have them charge you for just for the labor

If they can provide you with a better price for Full Synthetic oil and filter? thats fine also.

"Any" quality Full Synthetic will work fine.

Full Synthetic is required to keep the VVL as quiet as possible, and at a 5k interval oil change? You should be fine.

... here I was thinking you'd shuy this thread down in a split second. Oh how wrong I was.

Anyways,

OP, switch over to synthetic. Nissan recommends either their Ester Oil, or Mobil 1. It's 5W-30. You can use other brands, but as long as you have good oil in there, you'll br fine. Personally, I've had success with nissan's Ester, Mobil 1, and Castrol.
