6 common questions answered
Is the oil filter replaced every time a 2017 Nissan Murano has its oil changed?Yes, the oil filter should be replaced with the oil according to the manufacturer's published maintenance schedule.
For the 2017 Nissan Murano, that schedule calls for oil filter replacement every 5,000 miles. Replacing both together lets fresh oil circulate through a clean filter rather than an element already holding debris.
- Filter replacement is paired with the oil service.
- The filter captures debris carried by the oil.
- A new drain plug gasket or washer is included where used.
What is included in an oil filter replacement on a 2017 Nissan Murano?It includes a filter matched to the engine's specification, a new drain plug gasket or washer where applicable, and a leak check after the engine runs.
The filter is replaced alongside the oil. After the engine has been run, the filter seal is checked for leaks so the service can be verified.
- Engine-matched oil filter
- New drain plug gasket or washer where the engine uses one
- Post-service filter-seal leak check
What happens if the oil filter on a 2017 Nissan Murano is not replaced?A loaded filter can open its bypass valve, allowing oil to circulate without filtration.
The engine still receives oil, but it does not receive filtered oil. Debris can therefore continue circulating, which is why the filter should not be stretched across two oil changes. The manufacturer's schedule calls for replacement every 5,000 miles.
- Debris remains captured in the used filter.
- The bypass valve may open as the filter loads.
- Unfiltered oil can circulate through the engine.
Does a 2017 Nissan Murano need a specific oil filter?Yes, its filter is matched to the 3.5-liter, 3,498 cc V6 engine, and filters are not interchangeable across engines.
The filter must match the engine actually fitted so it works with the lubrication system and sealing surfaces. A service appointment confirms the appropriate engine-matched filter without relying on a universal fit.
- Engine displacement: 3.5 liters
- Engine cylinder layout: V6
- Filter selection is matched to the engine
Can the oil be changed on a 2017 Nissan Murano without changing the filter?The oil can be changed separately, but the manufacturer's schedule calls for replacing the filter every 5,000 miles.
Replacing the filter with the oil keeps fresh oil moving through clean filtration. Whether additional service is appropriate depends on the manufacturer's schedule, an inspection, and the vehicle's service history.
- The filter holds debris carried by the oil.
- A loaded filter can open its bypass valve.
- Filter replacement is part of the scheduled service.
