Eneas30 Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 It's time for me to do a first oil change to my new Pathy '07. Can somebody recomend me what king of oil I should use and if I should buy an original oil filter from the dealer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McClurgM Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 I'd use the factory Nissan Filters and Mobil One synthetic since it is a new car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skywhr Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 I'd use the factory Nissan Filters and Mobil One synthetic since it is a new car. I used this: http://www.quakerstate.com/pages/products/...ynthetic4x4.asp in my frontier.... Will probably continue to use it in the 05 pathfinder, fram toughguard oil filters.

McClurgM Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 I dunno.....after reading this link i will move away from FRAM and switch to NAPA, Mobil One, Bosch or Purolator only. http://minimopar.knizefamily.net/oilfilterstudy.html as a "result of Pennzoil aquiring Quaker State" i will no longer be using any Quaker State products. Only Valvoline or Mobile One oils. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BamaRed Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 Stay away from Fram... PureONE, Wix, and K&N are all good filters. I use the PureONE and Mobile One 5w30 -BR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skywhr Posted September 16, 2007 Share Posted September 16, 2007 (edited) Picked up a mobil 1 filter and 5w30 mobil 1 synthetic oil today will probably change it tomorrow or Tuesday. Can you really go 15000 miles on 1 oil change with this stuff? Edited September 16, 2007 by skywhr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamzan Posted September 16, 2007 Share Posted September 16, 2007 Picked up a mobil 1 filter and 5w30 mobil 1 synthetic oil today will probably change it tomorrow or Tuesday. Can you really go 15000 miles on 1 oil change with this stuff? Supposedly you can, but I change it at 10,000kms. Using mobil 1 supersyn 5w50 and a fram tough guard filter.

TruBlu Posted September 20, 2007 Share Posted September 20, 2007 Picked up a mobil 1 filter and 5w30 mobil 1 synthetic oil today will probably change it tomorrow or Tuesday. Can you really go 15000 miles on 1 oil change with this stuff? So long as you never intend to use your warranty on the vehicle...then go for it! But seriously, do you really want to leave that oil in your engine for that long? Will the oil filter withstand it? To a 15,000 mile oil change interval I say a big fat no! lol but then again, it's not my car Besides, your going to have to keep an eye on the oil level after awhile, buy a quart every now and again to top it off and replace the oil filter in that period perhaps once or twice. The only reason I see people do this is to save money. If you can afford an 07 Pathfinder...you can afford to take proper care of your vehicle with regular scheduled oil changes I hope that didn't come out the wrong way LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
