I know that the dealership had changed the oil in my G35 shortly before I bought it. I checked the level of the oil after I got the car and it was fine, but I was amazed to see that the oil was nearly clear as if it was brand spanking new even though it had 45 miles on it. On my Maxima, the Mobil 1 would become darkened shortly after using it for a few miles. Now after 500 miles, the oil in my G35 is still basically new looking. On a paper towel, the oil barely has a brownish hue? Have any of you guys experienced this? I've never owned a car with such low miles, but I do find it interesting that the oil still hasn't gotten darker with more miles.

 

Could it be that "micro finishing" that Nissan quotes in their ads??? (ie no macro wear debris)

 

don't worry, after your first oil change, things will never be the same again. i remember her first oil change...oh the memories.

 

Just be glad you still have oil.
