"Seem to be ok".. That is the issue. How do these people know if all is ok without tearing down the engine ans using a micrometer etc to determine if all is truly ok. I think Ester oils have a higher heat stability than other synth oils and that iswhy nissan specs them.
BTW, you buy approx 35,000 dollar car and $100 is going to break you? that is stretching the budget?
