2003 Nissan Altima S review from North America

What things have gone wrong with the car?

I have owned a 2003 Nissan Altima 2.5S for nearly two years without trouble until the beginning of last winter. The car has a hard start in cold weather as many other reviewers have posted. I do mostly highway miles (about 100 per day) I've had all the recall work done and still have this problem. I'd like to know if anyone has found a solution yet? Does synthetic oil really help? My troubles only occur in cold weather. Thanks.
