2000 Nissan Altima Oil Capacity

The 2000 Nissan Altima with the KA24DE engine takes 3.6 qt of oil and uses 5W-30. These figures are specific to the engine listed for this model year; oil capacity and recommended viscosity can differ for other engines or model years, so do not apply them to another Altima without checking its information.

Read 3.6 qt as the stated oil capacity and 5W-30 as the specified oil viscosity. The capacity is the reference amount, not a guarantee that every oil change will need exactly that much, since the amount can vary with how completely the old oil drains. If your engine or trim is not identified as KA24DE, or if you need a figure not shown here, confirm it on the door jamb or in the owner's manual.
