ENGINE OIL AND OIL FILTER

RECOMMENDATIONS
Selecting the correct oil

It is essential to choose the correct grade, quality

and viscosity engine oil to ensure satisfactory

engine life and performance. See

ЉCapacities

and recommended fuel/lubricants

Љ earlier in this

section. NISSAN recommends the use of an

energy conserving oil in order to improve fuel

economy.
Select only engine oils that meet the American

Petroleum Institute (API) certification or Interna-

tional Lubricant Standardization and Approval

Committee (ILSAC) certification and SAE vis-

cosity standard. These oils have the API certifica-

tion mark on the front of the container. Oils which

do not have the specified quality label should not

be used as they could cause engine damage.

Oil additives

NISSAN does not recommend the use of oil

additives. The use of an oil additive is not neces-

sary when the proper oil type is used and main-

tenance intervals are followed.
Oil which may contain foreign matter or has been

previously used should not be used.
