$300 oil change brand?
 

Does anyone know the name and brand of oil Nissan uses 4 the $300 oil change? I want 2 do it myself.

probably the nissan ester oil, but 300...they must be doing something else also

its not a 300$ oil change lol.. its more like 130 or so... and its called Nissan Ester Oil :)

$12 a quart or so x 5 = $60 + labor and filter. That price sounds high!

Yea, the oil change at Nissan is $116 + Tax. I just got it done, but they quoted me $69 bucks at first because the service guy didn't know the exact price. Luckily for me he was too lazy to find out the real price and i signed the $69 quote. When I picked up my he was said, "I greatly undercharged you, so next time its $116 for the oil change." I said politely "DDDDDDDAMN, there will be no next time."

On the printed service order, it said Nissans ester oil 5w30 $12/quart.

$300.00 Come on down here I will do it for $200.00

^ lol now i remember - they quoted me 96 and it ended up being 120 lol...

$300 dollar for an oil change? That's absurd! Just buy a set of ramp for 30 bucks and do it yourself. Even with VERY good quality synthetic, you won't cross $80/change. This "special" ester oil, is NOT even synthetic. I think it's a synthetic blend with ester mixed. You can look at my DIY and get an idea how hard it will be. Good luck

AK is right, do it urself, save the money for ramps and parts

Ditto.:iagree:

My oil change at the dealer was $70, not much different than the quicky lube places that use regular synthetic.

I just confirmed w/ my dealer that the oil change using the Nissan $11 per quart ester oil is $69.95. I will be doing it next week, cheaper than at a shop which uses Mobil 1 Extended Performance.

I asked why Ester and was told it had to do with engine start-up. Just got my first (free from dealer first time). Normally $99. So if I go with the Stillen Oil cooler, I'll need another 1 -1.5 quarts(?). Well, just consider we are helping the economy.

I swear by AMSOIL 100% Synthetic. I change my AMSOIL every 25k like the bottle says it's good for, and it comes out looking just how it went in. No drops in fuel efficiency.

^^ yeah ok :shakes head:
