So I asked Nissan about using 0w-40 on my 2014 Nissan Versa with a 5speed manual, but they referred me to the dealer which basically referred me back to Nissan...
I do a lot of highway driving, usually in West and South Texas, lots of hills and mountains. My car normally goes at 3.5-4k RPMS in the highway. I noticed my oil turns dark really quick after such drives, 5w-30, that is. SO I was wondering if 0w-40 would be a "better" oil for my usage.
Anyone ever used it?
btw, my car has 45,000 or so miles.
edit: nissan recommends in the owners manual to use synthetic 5w-30 or conventional 10w30
