durability if other OW-40 synthetic oil is used. If Mobil 1 (OW-40) is not available, Mobil 1 (10W-40) (100
synthetic) may be used; however, some performance loss may be noticed.
*2: Genuine NISSAN Brake Fluid R35 Special II is the factory fill brake fluid. The Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC) unit and other related parts were specially designed for
this brake fluid and NISSAN cannot ensure the best performance and proper operation of the vehicle if other brake fluid is used.
