What happens if I skip an oil change on my 2018 Nissan Maxima?Skipping the recommended 5,000-mile oil interval allows oil to age and lose some ability to carry heat and debris.
Older oil may provide less effective protection for the 3.5-liter V6 as its additive package degrades. A reminder light, dark or low oil on the dipstick, or a louder startup engine note can indicate that service is due. Keeping service records helps document maintenance history.

2018 Nissan Maxima Oil SpecificationsThe 2018 Nissan Maxima uses a 3.5-liter V6 engine producing 300 horsepower and 261 lb-ft of torque. Its oil service should follow the grade and capacity specified by the manufacturer for this engine. Larry H. Miller Nissan Mesa replaces the used oil with the required grade, installs a new oil filter, resets the oil-life monitor, and checks underhood fluid levels.
The manufacturer recommends changing the engine oil every 5,000 miles and replacing the oil filter every 5,000 miles.

Drivers should pay attention to an oil-change reminder, oil that looks dark or low on the dipstick, or a ticking or louder engine note at startup.
Recommended premium unleaded fuel supports the Maxima's V6 powertrain, while correct oil service supports lubrication and heat control. Bring your 2018 Nissan Maxima to Larry H. Miller Nissan Mesa in Mesa for an OEM-spec oil change — schedule service.

Arizona driving can involve extended heat, stop-and-go traffic, and road-trip mileage. Those conditions make timely oil maintenance a practical part of caring for a V6 sedan.
