The 2002 Nissan Frontier runs on top-tier SAE 5w-30 fully synthetic motor oil to maintain optimal engine performance. With a powerful 3.3-liter V6 engine under the hood, this vehicle requires 3.5 quarts of oil for each change. You can easily get this oil in one-quart containers at most retail stores, auto shops, or reputable online dealers. Prices can range from $2.49 to $15.38 per bottle, and plan on picking up at least three bottles for an oil change. Consider grabbing a funnel, costing between $.89 and $3.39, to make the process cleaner and easier.

    For the 2002 Nissan Frontier, both the 3.3L V6 engine variants (VG33E H or VG33ER 1) need 3.5 quarts of 5W30 synthetic oil. The 2.4L inline-4 engine in the same model requires 4.1 quarts of 5W30 synthetic oil with 4WD selected, or 3.7 quarts with RWD chosen.

    Oh, oil cannot be both conventional and fully synthetic. The 3.3 engine requires 3.49 quarts of SEA-rated 5w-30 oil.
