I'm looking for oil/filter/OCI suggestions for a 2000 Maxima GXE with 175k that I recently bought. I live near Nashville and have an average to easy driving style, relatively slow driving speeds for better gas mileage. This car is my daily driver with a commute of 70 miles round trip, mostly highway driving with occasional stop/go traffic due to accidents and such. The manual suggests 5w30 SG/SH for all temps and 10w30/10w40 for temps above 0 degrees F. The car runs and sounds fantastic. I don't think it burns oil but don't know what has been used in it previously.
My main goal is to maximize engine life and reliability, as I hope to drive this for 2-4 years with minimal repairs. As info, I also have a 2001 Escape with 208k and 2002 Silverado with 173k. For the past few years, I have used Max Life 5w30 and P1 filters in both of these with spring/fall OC's. It would be great to find something that's a good fit for all three, but may be difficult with the different engine types. Thanks!
