174k Miles and finally a major problem

Yes this is the convential auto transmission. Fluid changed every 30k with synthetic oil. Oil changes also using synthetic every 7k to 10k miles I have done one brake job fronts at 96k rears at 146k and plugs at 100k. Been through 4 sets of tires. And found the cheapest place for an air filter is the dealer. go figure

Any advantage to using synthetic fluids over conventional ones? Have you used synthetics for your other cars before? Just want to know if it's worth paying that much if it works for you.

The advantage for me is I dont have to change my oil every 3 weeks. I have been known to go over 10K miles between oil changes.

OK so long story short, all the exhaust shops are either to afraid to touch the car or want to charge me the same price for aftermarket as for factory. Thankfully I have a friend who works for nissan and he is able to get me a heck of a deal on them. I seem to have a leak also with in the exhaust or in the intake tract some where. Need to get it apart soon to figure it out.
