★ Top Answer
In the 2008 Nissan Pathfinder, using a dry filter, you will need 5.1 liters (5.39 quarts) of 5W-30 engine oil. In colder areas, it is advised to use 0W-20 oil. Nissan suggests changing this oil every 7,500 miles or 6 months, whichever comes first. However, if you tow frequently, drive in dusty conditions, or encounter constant stop-and-go traffic, you may require more frequent maintenance. The typical cost for an oil change in the 2008 Pathfinder ranges from $120 to $140. Labor makes up $40 to $60 of that cost, so you can save some money if you do the maintenance yourself. Always ensure the engine has cooled down before checking or changing the oil to avoid injury.
