Is this oil ok for my Qashqai?

Can i put 5w40 engine oil in a 2013 Nissan Qashqai 1.5 XE

Our answer:

Hi David,

The recommended grade is 5W-30, but the 5W-40 should be fine as it just means it remains thicker at higher temperatures. More importantly, you need to ensure you use a low ash oil to protect the diesel particulate filter.
