Hello guys, I have a 2014 Nissan Versa S plus with 13,000 miles on it. I have been using Mobil 1 0-30 oil with a Fram Ultra Synthetic filter and I change my oil every 3,000 miles (5,000 km).
I use the 0-30 since it claims to help save gas and meet all warranty requirements as a 5-30 oil. I did however notice yellow oil sludge inside my oil cap. I drive about 8 miles to work and back (all highway) and am thinking these short trips are causing this sludge build up.
Also, as a third note, I always use 3.7 quarts of oil (3.5 liters) and notice the oil level on the dip stick to be half a center meter above the hatch mark (just above the H mark) after every oil change. Anyone else notice their dip stick to be off a bit?
Thanks guys, I appreciate the feedback and really enjoy my Versa. My wife had a 2011 and really liked hers and that is what convinced me to go out and get one for myself.
