What is the 2005 Nissan Frontier’s oil type?

I worked all last summer when I was out of school to save up for a used truck and I finally got one! This is my first vehicle and I want to learn to take care of the maintenance myself. What is the 2005 Nissan Frontier's oil type?

Good for you for working hard and continuing to take initiative! The 2005
Nissan Frontier
pickup truck offered two engine options and two body styles, both requiring 5W-30 synthetic motor oil.
It’s important to note that each 2005 Nissan Frontier engine requires a specific quantity of motor oil to keep it running smoothly. The 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine needs about 5.2 quarts of oil, and the 4.0-liter V6 engine needs 5.4 quarts of synthetic oil. It’s a good idea to check your Nissan Owner’s Manual to confirm your 2005 Frontier’s engine size.
It’s great that you’re teaching yourself basic car maintenance skills because it not only saves you time, but it will save your wallet as well. Speaking of savings, if you’re looking to lower your car-related expenses even further, check out
