This is sort of a dumb question, but -
My mother doesn't drive her vehicle very much anymore, and the car can sometimes sit for a week at a time. The vehicle is a 2010 Altima with the 3.5L V6.
I change the oil every six months using 5W30 synthetic and an OEM Nissan filter. Ever since her driving pattern changed, she has complained of hearing a noise upon start-up for a brief period of time that resembles a dry start.
I am suspecting that the filter may be partially to blame for the dry start. Can you folks recommend a filter with a good ADBV design that may minimize the occurrence of this issue?
Thx.
