I was skimming through the other 23 and some odd page thread on engine oil and several people said it comes with the Ester from the factory. I have 1300 miles on my 09 Nismo and had to add 2/3 of a quart the other day during break-in. I added the genuine Nissan Ester Oil. I thought that was in it to begin with. If it's not, will the Ester oil I added do any harm?
It won't do any harm. I don't think factory fill is ester. Because ester oil is ONLY recommended NOT required. Manual says ANY 5W30 will do the job.
