With that said, it is a quality motor oil, and it is not going to make a difference for a long time. It definitely won't cause major problems like the OP is reporting unless improperly used.
Well I am speaking as an actual user so you won't find my 2 cents in a report. I will say honestly that with our high oil temp problems RP has helped. I couldn't drive hard for long on the oil Nissan provided but when I switched I saw an increase in prolonged lower oil temps and cool down moderate when resuming normal driving. This is just my experience though. Just some things you will never know until you try it yourself. RP 4 LIFE LOL
