2 Answers
Nissan Teana can use fully synthetic engine oils with specifications of 0W-30, 5W-30SN, and 0W-40SN. More details about engine oil selection for Teana are as follows:1. Nissan Teana can choose engine oil according to the user manual: The Teana uses 0W-30 fully synthetic engine oil. While semi-synthetic engine oil (minimum requirement) can be selected as per the manual, fully synthetic oil is highly recommended.2. The best choice for Nissan Teana is fully synthetic engine oil with 5W-30SN specification: The 0W-40-SN grade oil is also acceptable. Fully synthetic 0W-40-SN engine oils from Mobil, Shell, or Castrol are all suitable for Teana. As long as the oil meets the SAE certification standards, it can be used.
I've been driving my Teana for several years and always use full synthetic 5W-30 engine oil, which is emphasized in the owner's manual to protect the engine from high temperatures and reduce carbon buildup. The advantage of synthetic oil is its wear resistance, quieter engine sound at high speeds, and smoother acceleration. The replacement interval is generally between 5,000 to 10,000 kilometers, depending on driving habits—earlier changes are needed for frequent city traffic jams. Don't skimp on quality by using inferior oil, as it can cause engine vibrations or increased fuel consumption. For brands, I recommend Mobil or Shell, ensuring they have API SN certification. Always check the oil level and keep it clean during each maintenance session. The Teana's engine is quite reliable, and using good oil can extend its lifespan and reduce issues.
