0W-40 is a great oil. I'm sure 5w-30 is too. I ran stock, Nissan spec, for my first change. Since then, I've been using the M1. I just think I have a hot running car, and no matter what oil I put in the results will be the same.

Sorry I brought the whole temp thing into this discussion. Back on topic...OP, you're fine with whatever oil the manual says, but a lot of us use 0w40. It works great and lasts for quite a while...even when it's worked hard. The OA's don't lie.
