How Often to Change 2003 Infiniti M45 Oil

Not sure how or where to get your Infiniti M45’s oil changed? Look no further than Firestone Complete Auto Care! We're experts in more than tires. Oil and lube services are also our specialties. We couldn’t put it better than our technician, Brianna. She likes to explain to customers that, “Oil is the blood of the engine. It’s the #1 thing you can do for your car.”

Infiniti recommends having your 2003 Infiniti M45’s motor oil changed at regular intervals. Check the interval for your vehicle mileage in the table above. No matter the mileage, your M45 may need its oil changed ASAP if your check engine light is on, you hear engine knocking, sense an oil smell in the cabin, or notice an unusual amount of exhaust. You might need an oil change more frequently than what’s recommended by Infiniti if you regularly haul heavy loads, drive in dusty areas, go off-roading a lot, or drive at low speeds for long distances. Generally, getting more frequent oil changes won’t hurt your Infiniti M45. Each oil change is actually another chance to check and resolve other car issues, such as worn brake pads or tire treads.
