Yeah looks small to me as well, haven't found any bigger that I could trust yet, staying with dealer size specs but also kicked to a Mobil 1 high mileage filter and when I started using Royal Purple the oil stays so much cleaner and the engine sounds smoother...

Chern, I got my oil changed. Have u noticed and changes in coolant temperature? I thought my temp gauge went down a needles width when I changed to Mobile 1 40K miles ago.

Also, I just read that m-110 Mobile 1 filter is larger and fits our car.

That is correct. The 110 by Mobil 1 is the filter I use. I need about 1/2 a quart more motor oil with that filter than with the Nissan filter, which I was using before I switched to the 110.
