Change the oil every 7,500 miles under normal driving, or every 5,000 miles in Arizona’s severe conditions.

High heat, dust, short trips, and heavy traffic in the Phoenix East Valley qualify as severe duty and justify the shorter 5,000-mile interval. Following the OEM schedule helps protect engine performance and warranty coverage. Keep records of each visit when you schedule service at Larry H. Miller Nissan Mesa.

• Normal: ~7,500-mile interval
• Severe AZ use: ~5,000-mile interval
• Always follow your owner’s manual and service advisor guidance

The 2016 Nissan Maxima uses full synthetic motor oil meeting Nissan specifications (0W-20 is commonly specified).

Full synthetic oil supports cold-start protection and thermal stability for the 3.5L V6, especially in Mesa’s heat. Your owner’s manual confirms the viscosity and standard (API/ILSAC) for your VIN. We install OEM-spec oil and a Nissan-approved filter, and we’ll document it for your service history.

• Full synthetic, OEM-spec oil
• Viscosity typically 0W-20 (verify in owner’s manual)
• Nissan-approved oil filter installed

The 2016 Nissan Maxima 3.5L V6 takes approximately 5.1 quarts of oil with a filter change.

Capacity can vary slightly by filter and drain time, so our technicians fill to spec and verify the level on the dipstick after the engine circulates oil. Using the correct amount prevents aeration or overfill, both of which can affect performance. We’ll note the exact quantity on your final invoice for accurate records.

• Approximate capacity: ~5.1 quarts with filter
• Level confirmed after warm-up and settle
• Quantity documented on your service record

Dealer service includes OEM-spec oil and a Nissan-approved filter, plus a multi-point inspection and service record for warranty support.

Quick-lube shops can be convenient, but may use non-OEM parts or generic oil unless you request upgrades. At Larry H. Miller Nissan Mesa, we follow Nissan procedures and document work for your maintenance history. Choose the option that fits your priorities—cost, convenience, and OEM compliance.

• OEM-spec oil/filter and torque specs followed
• Multi-point inspection and fluid top-offs included
• Service history supports warranty claims

Missing the OEM oil-change schedule can jeopardize warranty coverage; keep dated service records to prove maintenance.

Nissan requires maintenance at prescribed intervals, and proof matters if an engine-related warranty claim arises. Having oil changes performed to spec—documented with mileage, date, and parts used—protects you. Warranty repairs generally require a certified facility; we can keep your records on file when you schedule service in Mesa.

• Follow the mileage/time schedule in your manual
• Retain receipts and repair orders
• Certified service supports warranty claims

Full synthetic offers the best high-temperature stability and cold-start protection, which is why it’s specified for the 2016 Nissan Maxima.

Conventional oil oxidizes faster in heat; blends improve stability; full synthetic resists breakdown and protects under Mesa’s extreme temperatures. The Maxima’s 3.5L V6 benefits from full synthetic for consistent viscosity and deposit control. We’ll confirm the correct spec and viscosity at write-up.

• Full synthetic = strongest thermal stability and cleanliness
• Blend = middle ground on price and performance
• Conventional = basic protection, not OEM-preferred here
