+1 on Versa12's comment; 0 mph = 0 mpg.
Synthetic oil will not yield a mpg gain that can be measured. Lots of misconceptions and misinformation floating around about that. Yes, there may be a fraction of a mile per gallon increase but it would be masked by more common and significant variables. (driving style, tire inflation, winter gas blend, altitude, head winds, dirty air filter, etc.)
The CVT tranny will yield 10 -20% better mileage than a comparable 4 speed automatic. This is true on the Versa and on the Subaru's. Read through a few hundred hours of forum posts and this will become apparant. Yes, I own a Subaru also (with the CVT).
If your Versa has over 100k miles, it is due for new spark plugs. This can definitely yield better gas mileage if the plugs are about worn out.
Bottom line, there is no magic formula to increase gas mileage. The biggest influence is driving style. The Versa gets less than average fuel economy for it's class and size of vehicle, especially in the four speed auto version. My much larger, heavier, taller, AWD Subaru Outback with a luggage rack gets better gas mileage than my Versa.
