How much oil does the 2001 Nissan Sentra take?

The 2001 Nissan Sentra takes 2.7 liters (2.8 quarts) of 10W-40 engine oil. This is a synthetic blend that is a bit thicker than fluids with other viscosity ratings. In cold climates, 5W-30 is a suitable replacement. Nissan recommends replacing this fluid every 6,000 miles or 6 months, whichever You arrive to first. Your maintenance interval will be based on Your unique driving habits though. Always make sure the engine has had time to cool before checking or replacing this fluid to prevent injury. Get in the habit of checking it routinely to avoid expensive damage that can be resulted by low oil pressure. If You have the oil changed in Your 2001 Sentra at a dealership, You can expect to pay between $90 and $120. Labor accounts for around $40 of that total, so You can save a bit of money, if You replace the fluid Yourself.
