My SLS Kizashi still has no Hiccups or Gremlins...3k miles ago I switched to Mobil-1 15w50 Oil just cause it gives me a Warm Fuzzy feeling of having a thicker Grade Synth Oil on these Hot/Jersey Summer Months. So far no loss of MPG detected with the thicker oil or loss of power.
I received my Recall notices, and just looking for free time to get to the dealer to have them Do it.
Be careful what you assume, the "0" was no typo. do some research its great oil. and when its zero degrees out the car starts so much easier. I've used 0/30 in my truck with great success.
I had never run into 0w. I am sure it would be great for cold starts. I have been using Castrol Syntec 5W-, but am trying their newer EDGE synthetic oil this time (do not know it it is really any better).
I used Syntec 5W-50 in my Morano from first oil change until at 130,000 miles, I traded it in on my AWD Kizashi. Engine was like new - it was the mileage on the CVT (which was starting to leak) that had me nervous.
gaww what year was the nissan, i hope its not true of all cvt's. vwoom i test drove a 2.0T when i was looking for my sls and it was an awesome motor and tranny (for me) real lively and fun, however the rest of this car was a rattle trap ,only had 27k on it though. kind of swayed me a bit.
