Well its time once more to change the oil. I wanted to be sure. In the book is write that i will need 7 liters of 5w-30 oil (i'm speaking for the V9x) but since it has a dpf do i have to pay attention at something?
And i'm having trouble locating the oil filter, in the book its writen its somewhere in front?
I almost had a heart attackt first maintenance at official stealer: they do Nissan / Renault. The mecanic who did the maintenance, didn't know it either!!!!
So for the location of the filter: if you look at the under body protection, you should see a small square plate, fixed with 4 boults. Remove that and the filter should be there.
This is one of the reasons i prefer to do it myself. Only critical things like brakes and others are things i let Nissan do. But otherwise i try to keep costs down and learning a bit too
I do have 1 washer left from my previous D40 but I don't think this one needs it.
2. I won't use the method you say the garages uses because all the "rubbish" or how do you say? all the remaining "****"? stays in the sump, atleast by draining you remove some if not most.
I might be young but I like to take care of my vehicles so any advice on how to do it properly rather than quickly are welcome :cheers2:
"I do have 1 washer left from my previous D40 but I don't think this one needs it."
I think you'll find it's good practice to replace the drain plug washer and for a couple of cents, not a great saving. Whether the 2.5's is the right size of not is another matter. But each to their own.:?
But my uncle used it on his Toyota Yaris D4d (which has a dpf) and I did last year on my 2.5dci D40 (without Dpf) both still running fine. But i'm going to check again to make sure, thanks anyway :awesomework
Then look for C4, 5w30, Full synthetic, as per the manual....
