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.”

Nissan recommends changing your 2012 Juke’s oil at regular intervals. Check the interval for your vehicle mileage in the table above.
