At the end of the day, it's probably no different than a quality synthetic. If you want peace of mind, then go with the Nissan Ester, but by no means is it required. They will not void your warranty for not using it, etc.

Our Toyota dealer says they recommend "Toyota Motor Oil" in all Toyota's. It's just conventional oil; the only reason they recommend it is it's more cash in their pockets.
I think they put its "recommended" in the manual incase any thing goes wrong they can point to the manual and say well you didnt use recommended oil.

Besides the first guy to make there own Ester oil is gonna make a mad profit. I would love to use Royal purple ester oil if it costs half the price of nissans. Hell every one on the board would be useing it.
