What brand of full synthetic engine oil is used in the Nissan Navara pickup?
2 Answers
Nissan Navara pickup uses 0W-20 OEM full synthetic engine oil. Full synthetic oil change cycle: Full synthetic oil is generally changed every 12 months, or approximately 10,000 kilometers if calculated by mileage. However, the oil change interval is related to the engine's usage conditions. For example, if the engine has oil burning issues, the oil change interval will be shortened. Precautions for changing engine oil: When changing the engine oil, it's best to replace the oil filter as well, otherwise accumulated impurities may cause clogging; The oil pan bolt should be replaced with each oil change; Try to choose multi-grade oil, as multi-grade oil saves fuel, has a long service life, and provides good protection for the engine.
When I changed the oil myself before, I did some research. Although the Navara manual doesn't specify a particular brand, it emphasizes using full synthetic oil that meets Nissan's standards. If you go to a 4S shop for maintenance, they'll use genuine Nissan oil with the 'Nissan Genuine' label, which is actually Shell's 5W-30. Later, when I bought oil to change it myself, I used Mobil 1 ESP, focusing on whether the bottle has the ACEA C2/C3 certification and API SP rating—these two symbols are the key. Remember, never buy the wrong viscosity to save money. Last time, a friend used 10W-40, and the engine made creaking noises during cold starts in winter. The mechanic said the oil film was too thick and damaged the piston rings.
