no pun intended sometimes. Just pick out one of the top 3 synthetic brands
and you'll be fine. Oh and always check your oil after every refill of gas.

why is that ?[/QUOTE]

NO. you shouldn't check your oil at the gas station unless you wanna wait 10 minutes at the gas station and look like a total jerk! If you need accurate oiil level check, please do it at home/garage etc where you can allow at least 10-15 minutes for the oil to drain back. Per owner manual:



When I come home, I usually ask SIRI to - remind me in 15 minutes to check oil level. Then I shut off the engine. I go inside home and as soon as I get the reminder, I come outside and check the oil level. I do this every 14 days. Religiously. I crossed 60,000 miles today and (knock on wood) no issues whatsoever. If you check your oil once a month, you should be fine. I rarely have to put any oil in anyway.

OP aka theboydiddy, I have two suggestions for you for your initial original post:
a. Please read this thread to get your answers to those questions DIY: Nissan 370Z Oil change (AK370Z way) Pictures inside

b. Next time when you make a thread, please make it more that one word title ("Oil"). I changed the title for you. You want to make your thread title in a way so that i)it helps another member when they search in future ii)kinda gives a member "at a glance" idea what's the thread is about.

Enjoy your pearl white 370z
