Anyone gone fully synthetic?
oil filters
If you ask service managers at Infiniti, they always recommend the stock oil that they use instead of putting in synthetic. My dealer actually offers Mobil 1 as an option but I'm at 14K miles now, I will be bringing in my Mobil 1 from now on (its overpriced at the dealer).
The best advice I can say is to wait through the break-in period to switch to synthetic. Some say 3000, some say 10K, some even say 20K. Thats why I'm going over at 15 and hope for the best!
Do I need the Mobil 1 filter though or is the OEM fine?

I would recommend a bigger filter, especially for synthetic oil assuming the filter will be used longer when compared to using non-synthetic oil.

Going with 100% synthetic fluids in your G35 will only make it run better and last longer! Synthetic fluids run cleaner and cooler, that can't possibly be a negative thing. I use AMSOIL 10W/30 and K&N filters in my crankcase and AMSOIL everywhere else too. The dreaded sludge is non-existent thru quality synthetics and recommended replacement intervals!

I've been using Castrol Syntec GTX 5W-30 for a while.
I've had no problem with this full synthetic oil and I just bring it in with my filter to the dealer when I get my oil change.
