Switching to synthetic at 15k miles shouldn't be a problem.

There are several threads around about using synthetic oil. A quick search turned up these and many more:

http://www.nissanforums.com/frontier...synthetic.html

http://www.nissanforums.com/frontier...nge-today.html

http://www.nissanforums.com/frontier...mobil-1-a.html

http://www.nissanforums.com/frontier...full-hint.html

Everyone will give you their $0.02 on what to use. Me? I use Mobil 1 10W30 with a Mobil 1 oil filter (Part # M1-110).

Welcome to the boards...
