How much oil should I put in my Nissan truck?
Just under 4 quarts when changing the filter as well. Nissan recommend 5/30W, but 10/30 W is probably best. If your truck has a lot of miles on it 20/40 W may reduce oil consumption a little yet give good lubrication protection. Sign in to reply
How can I tell if my oil level is low?
Most car owners will check their oil level manually after the alert is indicated on the dashboard. If they check the oil on the dipstick and it’s full or above the “add” line, this could indicate that the oil sensor is broken or that another problem with the sensor system exists.
Why does my Nissan Tiida engine whine when I put it in neutral?
Thanks for your question about the Nissan Tiida you took for a test drive. The engine whining may be an indication of a power steering problem or a worn bearing. The thing that worries us is that it stopped when you put it in neutral. That sounds like an indication of a bad sensor or a problem with the fuel system.
When does the oil level sensor come on?
Oil Light comes on frequently. Another indicator of a potential issue with your oil level sensor is when the light comes on sporadically. The oil level sensor is supposed to come on as soon as you start your motor, as the data is collected while the motor is turned off.

How can I check the oil level in my car?
Check Oil Levels. Check oil level with the dipstick in the oil well — accessible under the hood of the car. Remove the dipstick, wipe it clean, then put it back inside. Take it out again to see if it’s dry or does not have very much oil on it.
What happens if your oil level is low?
If the oil is low, it will trigger a warning light indicator on the dashboard, or will illuminate the check engine light. However, since it’s exposed to intense heat and harsh conditions, it can wear out or send faulty data to the engine control unit (ECU).
