2014 Pathfinder Platinum, 102,xxx miles, I'm almost through my stash of 5w30 conventional and it'll be time to buy some shiny new oil before I know it.
Looking for something with excellent engine cleaning properties and good metal wear protection because I want to keep my Pathfinder until it hits 300,000 miles at the very least.
My Pathfinder specifies 0w20 OR 5w30 and I've used both in it with similar results so I don't mind recommendations for either weight.
It gets driven daily, my commute to work is about 15 minutes from the house and I do a lot of in-town driving on my days off, probably about 250-300 miles weekly is what I put on it.
I don't tow anything but occasionally I put the seats down to haul scrap and other odd objects for myself or family.
The area I live in is considered a severe service region by the dealerships here and the road to and from my house is an 8% grade, and the road to get up out of town is a steep enough grade (11% IIRC) that it's one of the few places in the US where there is NO fine for using a runaway truck ramp.
What would be a good oil with excellent cleaning properties and good metal wear protection for a daily driven vehicle in a severe service region like mine?
