It clearly says it recommends it.

Recommends and needs are the same,if your doctor recommends that you stop eating fried food don't you think there is reasoning behind it.
I know the difference between recommend and need but if the manufacture says it recommend and you don't listen well it the same as someone not listening to the doctor.

no, your cars engine is still covered under warranty as long as you use an oil listed from nissan. the ester coats the diamond polished components better than conventional oils. which in turn makes our motor run a lil quieter and a tad cooler.

I disagree, if it was needed they would have specifically said required. If that's the case using something other than Ester Oil would void your warranty through Nissan.
