What kind of oil does a 2000 Nissan Frontier take?

I inherited my grandfather’s 2000 Nissan Frontier when he passed away a few months ago. He kept his Frontier in great shape, and I intend to keep it running and can’t wait until I can put on classic plates. Presently, I’m doing a bit of upkeep, beginning with changing the oil and filter. What kind of oil does a 2000 Nissan Frontier take?

That’s wonderful that you inherited his truck! In the chart below, you’ll see an overview of two different engine sizes for a 2000 Nissan Frontier. Both Nissan Frontiers take conventional 5W-30 oil. If you purchase 5 quarts of oil, you should have enough for an oil change:
Year/Model/Engine| Oil type and weight | How many quarts | | ——— | ———– | ———- | |2000 Nissan 2WD 2.4L 4cyl. | Conventional 5W-30 |3.7 Qts. | |2000 Nissan 4WD 2.4L 4cyl. | Conventional 5W-30 |4.12 Qts. | |2000 Nissan 4WD 3.3L 6cyl.| Conventional 5W-30 |3.49 Qts. |
Experts recommend that you change your oil a bit more frequently when you have an older truck or car. In your case, using conventional oil, be sure to change your oil at least every 3,000 miles. Keep an eye on your Frontier’s oil levels and clarity with your dipstick.
In addition to being faithful about routine oil changes, you should also consider reviewing your
car or truck insurance
policy on a regular basis to ensure you’re getting the best rate.
If you’re hesitant to
switch plans or insurance providers
because you’re worried about the work involved, don’t be.
