In 2010, the Nissan Frontier requires SAE 5W-30 engine oil. Nissan suggests using full synthetic oil for every oil change. Synthetic oil, created in a laboratory, offers better wear protection and longevity compared to conventional petroleum-based oil. This results in fewer required oil changes, with synthetic allowing for intervals of up to 7,500 miles as opposed to the 3,500 to 5,000 miles typical for conventional oil. It's important to check your oil at least monthly to ensure it is at a proper level and free of debris or damage.
Nissan suggests using SAE 5W-30 motor oil with API Certification Mark for all 2010 Frontier models.
