What kind of engine oil does the Nissan Teana use?
2 Answers
Nissan Teana uses SN-grade 5W30 fully synthetic engine oil. The functions of engine oil are: 1. To separate the surfaces of relatively sliding parts, thereby reducing wear; 2. To bring heat back to the oil tank and then dissipate it into the air to help the radiator cool the engine; 3. To circulate carbon deposits, sludge, and worn metal particles from engine parts back to the oil tank, flushing away dirt generated on the working surfaces of parts through the flow of the lubricating oil. Taking the 2021 Nissan Teana as an example, its body dimensions are: length 4901mm, width 1850mm, height 1450mm, wheelbase 2825mm, fuel tank capacity 61.3L, trunk capacity 586L, and body weight 1456kg.
I've been driving a Nissan Teana for several years and have tried various engine oils, finding that the manufacturer-recommended 5W-30 synthetic oil is the most reliable choice. Synthetic oil is heat-resistant, has good fluidity, and protects the engine from wear during long-distance driving. It also has a longer replacement interval, typically every 8,000-10,000 kilometers, making it both convenient and cost-effective. I often choose brands like Shell or Mobil 1 for their stable quality. Remember to check the dipstick and oil filter—low oil levels can cause engine overheating and even malfunctions. During each maintenance session, I always consult the technician's advice, as they can recommend the appropriate viscosity based on the specific model of the Teana. Don’t skimp on quality by using cheap, inferior oil, as it can damage the car in the long run. Changing the oil yourself is quite simple, but beginners should watch tutorials first to avoid mistakes. In short, choosing the right oil keeps your car running longer and smoother.
