2025 Nissan Kicks-Play Oil Filter in Mesa, AZ

The filter captures debris carried by the oil, and its capacity is not restored by draining the oil alone. When a filter loads, its bypass valve opens and unfiltered oil can circulate. Replacing it with the oil maintains fresh filtration.

• Filter matched to the 1.6-liter engine
• Drain plug gasket or washer renewed where applicable
• Filter seal checked after the engine runs

The filter is selected for the Kicks Play's 1.6-liter inline four-cylinder engine. A new drain plug gasket or washer is used where the engine requires one. After service, the engine is run and the filter seal is inspected for leaks.

• Engine-matched oil filter
• New drain plug gasket or washer where used
• Post-service filter seal inspection

A bypassed filter does not mean the engine stops receiving oil; it means the engine may receive oil without the debris-removal step. That can quietly reduce filtration as the vehicle continues to run. Replacing the filter with the oil renews its ability to hold debris.

• Debris remains captured by an increasingly loaded filter
• Bypass operation can send unfiltered oil through the engine
• Fresh filtration is restored with a new filter

The correct filter is selected for the engine actually fitted in the vehicle. A filter that fits another engine should not be assumed to provide the required fit or filtration. Larry H. Miller Nissan Mesa can match the filter during the oil service.

• 1.6-liter engine displacement
• Inline four-cylinder engine layout
• Filter selection based on engine application

Draining the oil does not remove debris already held by the filter. If the filter loads, its bypass valve allows unfiltered oil to circulate, which defeats an important part of the service. Vehicle maintenance guidance and service history help determine the overall service timing.

• Oil replacement does not clean the installed filter
• Loaded filters can trigger bypass operation
• New filters restore the filtration step
