The 2007 Nissan Sentra holdS3.8 liters (4 quarts) of SAE 5W-30 synthetic motor oil. This is a very popular formula as it's designed to enhance performance, return maximum fuel efficiency, prevent corrosion, and keep the engine cool and lubricated in a wide range of climates. Unlike non-synthetic oil that was primarily used in the past, 5W-30 doesn't need to be replaced every 3,000 miles. It's made to last longer, so Nissan recommends changing this fluid every 7,500 miles. However, if You drive frequently in dusty conditions or You have constant commutes that are long at low speeds, You may need maintenance appointments more often. The average cost to change the oil in the 2007 Sentra is $90 to $120. Labor makes up about $30 to $40 of that amount, so You can save a bit of money if You handle it Yourself.

The 2007 Nissan Sentra's two engine options both require 5W30 synthetic formulated oil. The Sentra's 2.0L inline-4 uses 4 quarts and the 2.5L inline-4 takes 4.5 quarts worth.
