What is the engine oil specification for Nissan Teana?
2 Answers
Nissan Teana uses 5W30 engine oil. The functions of engine oil include: assisting in engine lubrication and wear reduction, cooling, sealing and leak prevention, rust and corrosion protection, as well as shock absorption. Taking the 2021 Teana Fashion Edition as an example, it is a mid-size car under Dongfeng Nissan with body dimensions of: length 4901mm, width 1850mm, height 1450mm, and a wheelbase of 2825mm. The 2021 Teana Fashion Edition is equipped with a 2.0L naturally aspirated engine, paired with a continuously variable transmission, delivering a maximum horsepower of 156PS, maximum power of 115kW, and maximum power speed of 6000rpm.
I've repaired quite a few Nissan Teanas, and their oil specification is usually 0W-20 full synthetic oil, especially for the newer models after 2016, which is the manufacturer's recommended specification. 0W means it can flow quickly even at low temperatures of -35°C, protecting the engine during cold starts, while 20 represents the high-temperature viscosity, suitable for modern engines to improve fuel efficiency and reduce wear. If the wrong specification is used, such as a higher viscosity like 5W-30, it may increase fuel consumption and accelerate component aging. It's advisable to check the user manual during each maintenance or directly consult professionals at a 4S shop, as they can provide genuine oil and oil change services. Remember to change the oil every 5,000-8,000 kilometers and replace the oil filter to prevent contamination of the oil system, which can significantly extend the engine's lifespan and save a lot of hassle.
