For the 2001 Nissan Maxima, it is best to use SAE 5W-30 oil with an oil capacity of 4.2 quarts. When selecting an oil, make sure to choose one that is API certified. While 5W-30 is suitable for most situations, you can opt for 10W-30 or 10W-40 if the temperature is above 0°F. Typically, the vehicle requires an oil change every 5,000 miles, but additional factors like towing, dusty environments, or frequent short trips in extreme cold may necessitate more frequent changes.
