I use Mobile 1 with Mobile 1 filter every 6000 miles. I get it at Walmart for about $24/5qt. Sometimes on sale elsewhere $5/qt.

I'm not sure there's really a "best" oil to use. The Infiniti dealership here uses Valvoline, so that's what goes into my G. I've also always used Valvoline in my 12 year old Jeep with 186000 miles on it and it still runs really good. I've heard good things about Mobil 1 as well.

It doesnt matter what brand to use. But full synthetic doesnt break down like conventional oil does. Plus you can drive it for 5k miles and wont discolor.

I use Mobil1 oil. Been using it for over 200k and still running strong. Im driving an IS300, so its up to you which oil or brand you want to use.

Don't use mobile 1. Mobile 1 is horrible for our engines. It used to be good, but after they changed their formula.. not even close.

Check out this thread. https://g35driver.com/forums/engine-...hetic-oil.html

Skip past the 2002 to the current posts.

German Castrol 0W30 is what I use. The few other full synthetics don't get stocked in any of the stores around where I am.

Best oil....? AMSOIL 10W/30 Synthetic and quality filters like Wix or K&N. Filters you can find at most autoparts stores buy you'll need to Google AMSOIL to find a dealer near you. Expensive, yes but you asked for the best....
