Should I check my Infiniti Q50 motor oil level?

Engine oil is a lubricant for the moving parts in your engine. If your oil reservoir is low or empty, engine parts can grind together, generate too much heat, and cause your Q50’s engine to fail. That’s why you’re better off checking your oil levels and investing in routine lube services.

Can I change my Infiniti Q50 oil at home?

First off, changing your own oil isn’t as easy as you’d think. You’ll have to buy special tools and figure out a way to recycle the old oil properly. Having your oil professionally changed reduces the chances of something going wrong with the oil change, but also with your vehicle down the road.

Why is my Infiniti Q50 spewing blue or gray exhaust smoke?

Your engine could be burning oil due to a leak. It may be time for a pro to take a look. The leak could be caused by several issues like leaking valve seals, blown piston rings, or worn cylinder walls.

What does it mean if my Infiniti Q50 oil light comes on?

If you’re overdue for an oil change, it might trigger your Infiniti Q50 oil change reminder light. If the oil pressure light is illuminated, it could be due to low engine oil, a failing oil pump, a malfunctioning oil pressure sensor, or a clogged oil filter.

Does my Q50's oil filter need to be changed during my oil change?

Every time you change the oil in your Infiniti Q50, you should also replace the oil filter. Otherwise, you risk contaminating your brand-new oil with the dirt and debris built up in your old filter.

Your 2016 Q50’s oil should be changed according to Infiniti’s recommended oil change intervals. Check out mileage and month info for your Q50 in the above table.

Generally, getting more frequent oil changes won’t hurt your Infiniti Q50. In fact, every oil change is an opportunity to diagnose and treat any other issues, such as bad brakes or a failing battery.
