Oil Change at 1200 miles after Break-in

I should also mention that at 8500kms I also chnaged the tranny fluid and Diff fluid. Both are now redline. i will say i notice it's a lot smoother with shifting. Yet, I don't notice any difference with the diff. But I'm sure both are far better off then the factory fill stuff.

Thanks. Interesting stuff. I've read some mixed views on the board regarding the choice of oil. I did specify the dealer to user the Nissan ester oil for the first change. I've never tried any redline product even for my previous cars.
