Infiniti recommends changing your 1999 Q45’s oil at regular intervals. Check the interval for your vehicle mileage in the table above. No matter the mileage, your Q45 may need its oil changed ASAP if your check engine light is on, you hear engine knocking, smell oil inside the car, or notice an unusual amount of exhaust.
