2017 NISSAN TITAN XD check engine

CAUTION
Oil level should be checked regularly. Op-
erating the engine with an insufficient
amount of oil can damage the engine, and
such damage is not covered by warranty.
For additional information on checking the Cum-
mins 5.0L engine oil level, refer to the “Titan
Diesel Owner’s Manual”.
CHANGING ENGINE OIL
1. Park the vehicle on a level surface and apply the parking brake. 2. Start the engine and let it idle until it reaches
operating temperature.
3. Turn the engine off and wait more than 15 minutes.
4. Remove the oil filler cap
Aby turning it
counterclockwise.
5. Place a large drain pan under the drain plug
B.
6. Remove the drain plug
Bwith a wrench by
turning it counterclockwise and completely
drain the oil.
If the oil filter is to be changed, remove and
replace it at this time. For additional informa-
tion, refer to “Changing engine oil filter” in
this section.
● Waste oil must be disposed of prop-
erly.
● Check your local regulations.

Vehicles operated in high temperatures or under
severe conditions require frequent checks of the
battery fluid level.
JUMP STARTING
If jump starting is necessary, refer to “Jump start-
ing” in the “In case of emergency” section of this
manual. If the engine does not start by jump
starting, the battery may have to be replaced. It is

3. Allow the engine to idle for at least 30 sec-onds after starting. Do not race the engine
while warming it up. Drive at moderate
speed for a short distance first, especially in
cold weather.
In cold weather, keep the engine running for
a minimum of 2–3 minutes before shutting it
off. Starting and stopping the engine over a
short period of time may make the vehicle
more difficult to start.
SWITCHING ENGINE OFF
Push the ignition to the off position.
To prolong the engine life (especially after ex-
tended high speed, high ambient temperature, or
during heavy load operation, such as trailering) , it
is recommended that a hot engine be idled for
3–5 minutes before shutting down. This allows
the turbocharged engine to cool down.
ENGINE BREAK-IN
RECOMMENDATIONS
● Warm up the engine before operating it un-
der load.
● Do not operate the engine at idle for ex-
tended periods. ●
Prevent engine lugging by selecting the ap-
propriate transmission gear.
● Monitor the vehicle oil pressure and tem-
perature gauges.
● Check fluid levels frequently (oil and cool-
ant) .
● Vary the throttle position at highway speeds
when carrying weight or towing.
NOTE:
Extended light or no load operation will
extend the time before the engine reaches
its full efficiency. If the engine is operated
in this manner reduced fuel economy and
power may be observed.
The aforementioned procedure should be ob-
served for the first 6,000 miles. The engine run-in
is improved by operating the vehicle under load.
REMOTE START (if so equipped)

CHECKING ENGINE COOLANT
LEVEL
Check the coolant levelin the reservoir when
the engine is cold. If the coolant level is below
the MIN level
B, add coolant to the MAX level
A. If the reservoir is empty, check the coolant
level in the radiator when the engine is cold. If
there is insufficient coolant in the radiator, fill the
radiator with coolant up to the filler opening and
also add it to the reservoir up to the MAX level
A.
This vehicle contains Genuine NISSAN Long Life
Antifreeze/Coolant (blue) . The life expectancy of
the factory-fill coolant is 45,000 miles
(78,000 km) or 3 years. Mixing any other type of coolant or the use of non-distilled water may
reduce the life expectancy of the factory-fill cool-
ant. For additional information, refer to the “Titan
Owners’s Manual”.

CAUTION
Your vehicle may require more frequent
maintenance if it operates on biodiesel
blends between 6% and 10% (B6 and B10) .
To avoid damage to your vehicle, the oil,
oil filter, and fuel filter will need to be
replaced after a shorter time interval than
if your vehicle was operating on pure
petroleum-based diesel. For additional in-
formation, refer to the “Maintenance” sec-
tion in the “Titan Owner’s Manual.”
CHECKING ENGINE OIL LEVEL
NOTE:
The factory fill oil may include a red dye
that is added for manufacturing quality pro-
cesses. The dye makes the oil appear to be
red. This is normal. The red dye will be
flushed from the engine after approxi-
mately 4–5 oil changes.1. Park the vehicle on a level surface and apply the parking brake.
2. Start the engine and let it idle until it reaches operating temperature. 3. Turn off the engine.
Wait more than
10 minutes for the oil to drain back into
the oil pan.
4. Remove the dipstick and wipe it clean. Re- insert it all the way.
