For the 2009 Nissan Altima equipped with either the 2.5 L 4Cylinder or the 3.5 L V6 engine, the oil capacity is 4.9 quarts with a filter. The recommended oil type for the 2.5 L 4Cylinder is 0W-20 Synthetic for all temperatures, while the 3.5 L V6 engine should use 5W-30 Synthetic oil. The primary distinction between synthetic and conventional oil is that synthetic is artificially made using chemical compounds. It is crucial to use oil to maintain a clean and efficient engine. Oil needs to be changed along with the filter every 5,000 miles or every six months, whichever comes first. The estimated cost for an oil change is typically between $30 and $40 for labor.
