The type of engine you have in your 2019 Nissan Altima determines the engine oil required. The PR25DD engine needs SAE 0W-20, while the KR20DDET engine requires SAE 5W-30. For the PR25DD engine, the oil capacity is 5.1 L with a filter and 4.8 L without, while the KR20DDET engine needs 4.7 L with a filter and 4.6 L without. When changing the oil, it's advisable to also replace the oil filter to ensure everything is fresh when adding new oil to your engine.
Hey there! I'm from the Persian Gulf region, and I have a 2019 Nissan Altima with a 2.5-liter engine that I purchased in the United States. On the ID card, it indicates that the recommended motor oil is 0w20. I'm wondering if it's okay to use a viscosity of 5w20 or 5w30 instead?
The 2019 Nissan Altima can be filled with either regular or synthetic oil, but it performs at its peak with synthetic. The 2.0L 4-cylinder engine requires 5W-30 and can carry up to 5 quarts of oil. Meanwhile, the 2.5L 4-cylinder engine needs full synthetic 0W-20 and has a capacity of 5.4 quarts.
