The information and specifications below apply only when engaging in performance driving.
  • Before driving, check the fluid levels and adjust as necessary using the specified fluid.
  • NISSAN recommends to adjust the engine oil level to be 0.39 in (10 mm) below the H mark on the engine oil dipstick. Before checking the oil level, run the engine until it reaches operating temperature and wait at least 5 minutes after turning off the engine. Make sure the oil level always remains above the L mark.
  • Adjust the amount of fluid for the power steering. Refer to Inspection.
  • Be sure to change the fluids listed below with the specified fluids after driving.
  • Fluids temperature can be checked on the multi function display.
    • Engine Coolant Temperature
