First oil change opinions

[Pedropat]

Getting ready to do my first oil change at 1500 miles. Looking for thoughts on which oil and weight. 2024 performance manual. All stock and will not be doing any track days. SF Bay area so not to hot or to cold. I will be adding a undershroud and deciding between the Z1 or the CZP. Any thoughts on those two would be appreciated. BTW: Love the car, the only glitch so far is the Apple car play is fussy to connect sometimes.

Thanks

If using the car as intended by Nissan, I’m a fan of follow what the engineers at Nissan say and use 0/20 oil. I use whatever is on sale I’ve not found a brand that did not meet the standards set out in the owners manual.

I have the Z1 undershroud and love it. The service panel is awesome.

Enjoy the new ride!

I redeemed a "Free First Oil Change" with the dealership I bought my car at, so factory recommended 0w20 for now. I agree that it depends on your driving, plans, and if you'll modify it. there are a few threads talking about different oils.

Hey I would say stick to to stock on oil, the only people I would suggest consider something different are people in the southern states and even then I'd probably only use something heavier in the summer.

That being said, can I ask what your problems with apple car play is? I'm currently on android and am considering switching to apple just for the wireless carplay (vs wired on android).

Any insight you can give that might sway my decision would be greatly appreciated!

I highly recommend using Nissan Oil Change Kit for the Z. It can be purchased online for about 60 bucks. Comes with 0w-20 oil, filter and new crush washer. This will follow the Z warranty. Take pictures of the kit next to the Z, dash showing miles, and keep the receipts. Also, purchase a Z1 Oil Fill Funnel, part # 22044. Worth the $$ for ease of use.

I purchased my Z(looks just like yours) last April. Start a binder for the Z to keep all paperwork, photos, registration, insurance, maintenance log etc.. Enjoy!
