When to Change 2010 Nissan Armada Engine Oil

Looking for oil change recommendations for your 2010 Nissan Armada? Look no further than Firestone Complete Auto Care! We're experts in more than tires. We know all about motor oil, too. After all, "Oil is the blood of the engine. It's the #1 thing you can do for your car," says our maintenance technician, Brianna.

Nissan recommends having your 2010 Nissan Armada’s motor oil changed at regular intervals. Check out mileage and month info for your Armada in the above table. No matter the mileage, your Armada may need its oil changed ASAP if your check engine light is on, you hear knock knock knock coming from the engine, sense an oil smell in the cabin, or see an excess amount of vehicle exhaust. You may also need an oil change more frequently than Nissan recommends if you haul heavy loads, drive in dusty areas, go off-roading a lot, or go long distances at low speeds. More frequent oil changes generally won't harm your Nissan Armada. Each oil change is actually another chance to check and resolve other car issues, such as worn brake pads or tire treads.
