Keeping up with regular maintenance for your car involves having detailed knowledge about it. To give an example, the 2012 Nissan Rogue requires 5W-30 oil in the amount of 4.9 quarts with a filter. While it is suggested to go with a synthetic option for the fluid change, it is not mandatory. The main role of this lubricant is twofold. Firstly, it acts as a lubricant for the engine's moving components. Moreover, it functions as a cleaner, trapping contaminants like dirt and metal debris that may enter the engine. These particles are captured in the filter to maintain the oil's cleanliness. However, delaying oil changes increases the risk of the oil becoming thin and unable to capture solid fragments that could get stuck in the engine.
