To optimize performance, it is best to utilize SAE 5W-30 Synthetic Motor Oil in the 2007 Nissan Altima, whether it's the 2.5 L 4-cylinder or the 3.5 L V6 engine. The recommended oil capacity for both engines is 4.9 quarts with a filter. The drain plug requires 25 ft/lbs of torque. Oil plays a crucial role in maintaining engine cleanliness and providing lubrication to reduce friction between moving parts. As oil quality degrades over time, it should be replaced periodically. In the Altima, it is advised to change the oil and filter every 5,000 miles or every 6 months, whichever comes first.

    The 2007 Nissan Altima offers two options for its 2.5L inline-4 engine, labeled as QR25DE E and QR25DE F. The first one requires 4.9 quarts of 5W30 synthetic oil, while the latter needs the same amount of 5W20 synthetic-based oil. On the other hand, the 3.5L V6 engine in the same vehicle model of that year calls for 4.9 quarts of 5W30 synthetic formula oil.
