2015 Nissan Versa Note 45051, AMSOIL SS 5W-30 with EA15K12, Napa Gold air and cabin filters, tires rotated.
This was bought from Hertz/via Shift at 44019. No maintenance logs but Carfax showed a couple of visits. Hertx certified came with a 12000 mile powertrain warrantty (but Nissan's is good to 60K). $8550+fees.
At the next tire rotation/50000, considering replacing CVT fluid.

Out: Royal Purple HPS 5w-20/Fram Ultra XG4967
In: Pennzoil Platinum 5w-30 (API SM, not PurePlus)/Fram Ultra XG4967
It didnt seem to like the HPS very much. Lots of engine noise at colder temps and it consumed oil for the first time and never had before. Went back to the 5w-30 this time around.

12 Chrysler Town and Country. Out Pennzoil 0w40, and Napa Silver cartridge. In Pennzoil 0w40, and STP cartridge. Love a less than 20 dollar change with full synthetic for less than 20 bucks in a 7 quart sump. Splurged on a magnetic Gold Plug to celebrate.
Side bar, if this oil keeps pistons 25% cleaner than the leading synthetic, why isn't it the leading synthetic? What the heck?

I`m very surprised they didn`t use Bulk 5w30 dino...
My local Nissan dealer is pretty good about giving customers 0w-20 oil if they ask for it. They did my first free dealer service with Mobil 1 just because I asked for 0w-20 when I brought it in.

I guess that was a bonus for me. I didn`t ask for it, but we are repeat Nissan customers at this dealership.
I`ve never really researched Nissan brand synthetic oil.

IIRC when you look up that claim, it says something like this...
Quote:
*Does not apply to Pennzoil Ultra 0W-40 or Pennzoil Ultra Euro.
Oh, there it is in the picture- "Based on ASTM Sequence IIIG piston deposit test using SAE 5W-30."
Marketing at its finest when they're able to advertise the 0w-40 based on the performance characteristics of the 5w-30. They put this front and center on a bottle that specifically does NOT fulfill that claim.
