Oil viscosity

Nissan Sentra / Nissan Sentra Owners Manual / Technical and consumer information / Capacities and recommended fuel/lubricants / Engine oil and oil filter recommendations / Oil viscosity

The engine oil viscosity or thickness changes with temperature. Because of this, it is important to select the engine oil viscosity based on the temperatures at which the vehicle will be operated before the next oil change. Choosing an oil viscosity other than that recommended could cause serious engine damage.
