Infiniti recommends having your 2023 Infiniti QX50’s motor oil changed at regular intervals. See mileage and month specifics in the above table. Your QX50 may need an oil change right away if your check engine/oil change light is on, you hear knocking sounds coming from the engine, smell oil inside the car, or notice excess vehicle exhaust. You might need an oil change more frequently than what’s recommended by Infiniti if you regularly haul heavy loads, frequent dusty roads, adventure off-road, or go at low speeds on long distance trips. Generally, getting more frequent oil changes won’t hurt your Infiniti QX50. In fact, every oil change is an opportunity to diagnose and treat any other issues, such as bad brakes or a failing battery.
