I really like my car . The only thing I cant stand is rattles and the annoying valve tick. I have tried alot of oils to get rid of it. I used the Nissan ester oil per TSB. Still there! After that I used Mobil 1 . Made it worse! Tried Amsoil. Blah! Tried Motul . Did not work either ! Lets see how Royal Purple works. I will never use that stuff again!! Well I have gone this far lets try some Red Line . I changed my oil and guess what ???? NO NOISE!! Not only that my engine is alot smoother as well . This cant be. So I go drive the G hard . Beat it pretty good and pull over and still no noise . I cant believe this , engine is running really smooth and NO TICK . Magic oil ???? I dont think so , I will be using Red Line for everything now. I like my car again !!!!

That sounds like an endorsement What year is your G?

Good to hear. Thankfully my engine has never made the VVEL tick/knock. Redline is phenomenal oil from what I've seen. Glad to hear you found a winner bro! The new Pennzoil Ultra looks promising but I think Redline has it beat from what I've heard.

I also use Red Line oil and love it.
Since Mobile 1 EP caused serious knocking, I never use Mobile 1.
I was thinking of switching to Motul 8100, but I guess I will keep using red line oil for awhile.

Redline definitely makes some excellent true synthetic products. I've had good experiences with their manual trans gear lube and power steering fluid on my last two cars. Where are you guys getting their motor oil from that has a decent price?

It is a 2008 .. I still cannot believe how quiet this oil makes my engine compared to the others. Im going to send in the oil after 5000 miles to blackstone to see how its holding up .. This oil is awesome .

I personally didn't notice any change in volume at idle.
But, I have never had weird knocking noises with this oil.
I'd rather put at least Nissan Ester oil than Mobile 1 EP 5W30 which caused a knocking noise after 5000 miles..

I highly recommend the red line oil too.
I'm going to try Motul 8100 to see which one I feel better.

Isn't there also an ECU firmware update available that will fix the VVEL "tick" issue?
