The question is, what does "Avoid driving for long periods at constant speed, either fast or slow" mean? It conveniently does not define a "long period", but it does define the rpms to stay below (4000).
I stil have not heard a logical answer to this statement in the manual. Does anyone know what a "long distance" means to Nissan engine designers? Why can they state a number in the manual for rpms, but not for distance driven, they don't even say a speed to keep below. Inquiring minds want to know.
