The standard 3.5-liter engine in the 2010 Nissan Maxima takeS4.3 liters (4.5 quarts) of SAE 5W-30 motor oil. With a dry filter, You will need 4.6 liters (4.86 quarts). Nissan recommends replacing this fluid every 5,000 miles or 6 months, whichever You arrive to first. Your exact maintenance interval will be based on Your personal driving habits. It's strongly recommended to check the fluid routinely, even when it's not time to be replaced yet. This will ensure You catch low or old oil before it can do damage. If You plan on changing the fluid Yourself, a few recommended products include Pennzoil Ultra Platinum, Castrol Edge, Mobil 1, Royal Purple, and Amsoil. If You have the oil in Your 2010 Maxima replaced at a dealership, You can expect to pay $100 to $120. Labor makes up about $30 to $50 of that total.
