What I analyze is that the manufacture of motor oil from crude has improved so much that the differences from one brand to another are marginal at best. So I go by price and, up until recently, I was able to buy at a military installation (Ft. Buchanan), so when I saw that my card was about to expire, I went ahead I purchased
12 cases of 5W30 Mobil 1 at $4.95/quart! No problemo.
I have to agree with you about your statement about Mobil 1.In my opinion it is as good as any other oil on the market if not better.
As far as Nissan recommending?Note it says "recommend" not "must" use so the warranty on the engine with Mobil 1 is no less then when using there ester oil?
Nissan as many other manufactures push there products and claim they are the best so what ever makes you happy.This back and forth about oil could go on till the end of time.Any good quality oil should be just fine.
