For a 2005 Nissan Frontier, it's best to opt for a full synthetic 5W-30 engine oil, regardless of your engine type. The 2.5 L engine requires 5.2 quarts of oil, while the 4.0 L V6 needs 5.4 quarts. Nissan suggests choosing an energy-conserving oil for slightly better fuel efficiency, with a small 1.5 to 2 percent improvement. However, if you don't have this specific oil, using an alternative is fine. It's wise to stick with the manufacturer's recommended fluids and filter.
