2008 Nissan Altima Oil Capacity

The 2008 Nissan Altima oil capacity is 4.9 qt for both listed engines. The QR25DE and VQ35DE each use 5W-30 engine oil, so the capacity and oil grade do not change between these two engine options in the listed facts.

Read the capacity as the listed oil amount for the engine, not as a guarantee that every oil change will take exactly that much. Check the oil level after service and follow the owner’s manual for the correct filling procedure. These figures are specific to the listed engines for this year; if your Altima has a different engine or equipment, confirm the capacity and oil grade on the door jamb or in the owner’s manual.

The listed facts do not specify a separate capacity by trim, nor do they give details for other model years. If the engine in your vehicle is not clearly identified as QR25DE or VQ35DE, or you need a figure not shown here, confirm it in the owner’s manual.
