The recommended oil for the 2002 Nissan MaxiM3.5L v6 is SAE 5w-30 full synthetic, as specified by the manufacturer. The engine requires 4.4 quarts or 5 liters of oil, which is the correct amount for oil and oil filter replacement during maintenance. When selecting oil for the car, ensure it is the correct type and look for the API Approval seal, which indicates the oil is approved for use in Subaru vehicles. While you can use traditional or synthetic oil when changing the oil, synthetic oil is a more effective lubricant compared to conventional oil and will require less frequent replacement.
