I may have misread your original comment (#8385). You used the word "manual" , but you obviously meant the owner's manual for the car. Do you have a manual or auto transmission in your car? My recommended oils and change interval are obviously for the manual transmission. Changing auto transmission oil and filter at 30K would not be out of line in my opinion, because auto transmissions are hydraulic devices and they can easily be damaged by overheating.

Finally traded my '92 Maxima SE on Thursday for a Mazda 6s sedan.
 
I really hated to give up the SE. It was a great car for a long, long time. We've owned it since it was new and never left us stranded. Unfortunately, many things started going south not long after it turned 100K.
 
Since the new Maxima is a little too far "out there" for what I need, and since it is almost impossible to find an Altima with ABS and side curtain airbags here in Florida, after a lot of consideration I went with the MZ6. To me, it is the closest thing on the market today to what the Maxima used to be: "The Four Door Sports Car."
 
I'll always consider my SE to be one of the best cars I've owned. Hope I have as much luck with the Mazda.

If you use regular unleaded, you get lower performance and lower fuel economy. Using premium pays for itself, because even if it is about 20cents more per gallon, you may see 10% improvement in fuel economy.

10% improved fuel economy?!?! in which universe did they change the laws of physics?!?!
 
you would be lucky to get a whole mile to the gallon better. in many cases, people get worse mileage with premium.

That is true. My gas mileage went down when I switched to premium gas. I'm back to using regular gas, 87 Octane. No problems at all with this grade. I have 48,000 miles on my 02 GLE so far and still running great on regular gas.

Pls confirm that you've been using regular (87 octane) gas for most of 48000 miles with no problems? What is your fuel economy like? BTW, the onboard trip computer MPG on my 03 Max is off by 2-3 mpg consistently...
