Hey Fellow G members I just purchased a G35 coupe and didn't come with a manual im pretty sure theres a thread about it but i just want to stay on the safe side. My question is what oil do you use? and what is recommended so far i have about 30,xxx miles on the car and im curious what oil would the car be running now

 

I still take my G to the dealer for oil changes..........many do their own, but its just easier and I can document all my services for when I sell it off.

I believe the OEM recommended oil is 5W 30W. Depending on how/where you drive the car, you can easily adjust it to suit your needs.

They also recommend oil/filter changes at 3,750 miles. I usually dump both oil and filter every 3,000.

 

Syntec or Mobil-1 are both great synthetic oils.

 

mobil 1, german castrol, and amsoil are popular choices.

 

so the car is alredy running synthetic? or was it using regular oil?

 

should use only synthetic.

 

You can download a copy of the owners manual for free at infiniti-techinfo.

 

Mobil-1 or amsoil fill synthetic... 5w-30... change it every 3K miles or 3 months...

on3nonlyjimmy the car comes running regular oil

 

I would run the oil for 6,000 miles if it is synthetic. I think 3,000 is a waste of money and perfectly good oil

 

thanks alot for your help guys!

 

Go with the German/ European Castrol 0w30. and use OEM oil filter.

 

I use royal purple 5W-30 change it every 3k miles

 

German Castrol 0W30 and an oversized Purolator or Mobil-1 oil filter. That's the only thing I run in my G35. German Castrol is worth it's weight in gold.
