What type of engine oil is suitable for the Teana?
3 Answers
Teana is suitable for using fully synthetic 0w40 engine oil. The following is the relevant content introduction: 1. Engine oil should be replaced once a year or every 10,000 kilometers, and it is recommended to perform maintenance in advance. Engine oil, motor oil, or engine lubricant is a type of substance enhanced with additives in base oil, mainly containing anti-wear additives, detergents, dispersants, and multi-grade oil viscosity index improvers. 2. Teana is a flagship mid-to-high-end luxury sedan under NISSAN, with body dimensions of 4850mm in length, 1795mm in width, and 1475mm in height.
Choosing the right engine oil for the Teana is quite particular. From my experience, the new Teana 2.0T performs best with 0W-20 full synthetic oil, which offers good fluidity, fuel efficiency, and quiet operation. Options like Shell Helix Ultra or Mobil 1 are excellent choices, with changes recommended every 8,000 kilometers. For the older 2.0L models, 5W-30 is more suitable, especially in the high summer temperatures of southern regions. Once, I tried semi-synthetic oil, and the engine noise noticeably increased. Remember to select oil with dexos1 certification or API SP grade for better CVT transmission protection. If you drive aggressively, consider changing the oil 500 kilometers earlier, and using the original DENSO oil filter is the safest bet.
With over a decade of car repair experience, Altima owners often ask me about engine oil. I recommend fully synthetic 5W-30 as the safest choice with good versatility for both cold and hot protection. Pay special attention that VC-Turbo engines after the 2019 model year must use 0W-20 low-ash oil, otherwise the particulate filter may get clogged. The brand doesn't matter much - genuine Shell or Castrol Edge will do, as counterfeit oil harms engines more than wrong viscosity grades. The oil change interval is recommended at a maximum of 10,000 km, but reduce to 8,000 km for frequent city traffic jams. The Mann filter W610/6 is the best match, and always remind the mechanic to check the oil pan screw gasket during oil changes.
