What's the 2012 Nissan Xterra oil type?

The 2012 Nissan Xterra uses SAE 5w-30 full synthetic oil. It has a capacity of 5.4 quarts. Oil keeps the internal parts of Your car's engine cool and lubricated and it also keeps the moving parts from grinding against each other thereby reducing wear and damage.. The cost of an oil change for Your Xterra is between $40 and $50 for labor and between $80 and $90 for parts. You should get an oil change every 5,000 miles. You will know that it is time for an oil change if You notice increased engine noise, shaking while idling, excess vehicle exhaust, an oil smell inside the vehicle, and of course if You see the Check Engine or Oil Change lights come on.
