What kind of engine oil is better for the Teana?
2 Answers
It is better to use 5w30 engine oil for the Teana. Engine oil plays a role in lubricating and reducing wear, assisting in cooling, sealing and preventing leaks, preventing rust and corrosion, and cushioning vibrations for the engine. Taking the 2021 Teana as an example, it belongs to the mid-size car category, with body dimensions of 4901mm in length, 1850mm in width, and 1450mm in height, a wheelbase of 2825mm, a fuel tank capacity of 61.3 liters, and a curb weight of 1456kg. The 2021 Teana features a MacPherson strut front suspension and a trapezoidal control arm multi-link rear suspension. It is equipped with a 2.0L naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 156PS, a maximum power of 115kW, and a maximum torque of 197Nm, paired with a continuously variable transmission.
As a seasoned Altima driver for several years, I've always used 5W-30 synthetic oil, which feels perfect for this car - smooth starts and good fuel economy. I recommend choosing premium brands like Mobil or Castrol, changing it every 8,000 to 10,000 km without delay. In hot summer city driving, this oil maintains proper viscosity with quiet engine operation; during cold winters it ensures quick starts without hesitation. My last mechanic mentioned following Nissan's manual-recommended viscosity for engine longevity. Using the right oil also prevents carbon buildup, making maintenance worry-free.
