★ Top Answer
The 2001 Nissan Sentra requires 2.7 liters (equivalent to 2.8 quarts) of 10W-40 engine oil, which is a synthetic blend that is slightly thicker than other viscosity ratings. For colder climates, 5W-30 can be used as a suitable alternative. It is recommended by Nissan to change this oil every 6,000 miles or 6 months, whichever comes first. Your individual driving habits will determine your specific maintenance schedule. Remember to allow the engine to cool before checking or changing the oil to avoid injury. Regularly checking the oil level is important to prevent costly damage from low oil pressure. If you have the oil changed at a dealership, expect to pay between $90 and $120, with labor costs making up around $40 of that total. You can save some money by performing the oil change yourself.
