Hello,
I bought my Maxima 09 with 80k miles 4 months ago, from the records I have got, seems like the previous (original) owner used Nissan (Ester) oil 5w30 for the vehicle life and changed it at the Nissan dealer every 4k miles or so.
Before knowing that, I had my 1st oil change with Mobile 1 advance fully synthetic 5w30 and used M1 110 filter, the same combo I used for 8 years for my 2002 and 2003 Maximas with no issues, though did not experiment with potentially better oils.
The car drives beautifully, original owner kept in new-like condition despite the 10 yo age.
Questions:
1. What fully synthetic oil you recommend for my Maxima VQ3.5 engine? hearing Mobile 1 FS is a blend and not a real FS. I want to know the best stuff that lubricate this engine
2. Any better filter than M1 M110(catalogue recommends M108, the shorter filter but M110 fits fine) extended life oil filter?
Thanks
