2019 INFINITI QX30 fuel filter

Aftermarket fuel additives
INFINITI does not recommend the use of any
aftermarket fuel additives (Example: fuel in-
jector cleaner, octane booster, intake valve
deposit removers, etc.) which are sold com-
mercially. Many of these additives intended
for gum, varnish or deposit removal may con-
tain active solvent or similar ingredients that
can be harmful to the fuel system and engine.
Octane rating tips
Using unleaded gasoline with an octane rat-
ing lower than recommended above can
cause persistent, heavy spark knock. (Spark
knock is a metallic rapping noise.) If severe,
this can lead to engine damage. If you detect
a persistent heavy spark knock even when
using gasoline of the stated octane rating, or
if you hear steady spark knock while holding
a steady speed on level roads, it is recom-
mended you have an INFINITI retailer cor-
rect the condition. Failure to correct the con-
dition is misuse of the vehicle, for which
INFINITI is not responsible.
Incorrect ignition timing will result in knock-
ing, after-run and/or overheating. This in turn
may cause excessive fuel consumption or
damage to the engine. If any of the above
symptoms are encountered, have your ve-
hicle checked. It is recommended you visit an
INFINITI retailer.However, now and then you may notice light
spark knock for a short time while accelerat-
ing or driving up hills. This is no cause for
concern, because you get the greatest fuel
benefit when there is light spark knock for a
short time under heavy engine load.
ENGINE OIL AND OIL FILTER
RECOMMENDATIONS
Selecting the correct oil
It is essential to choose the correct grade,
quality, and viscosity engine oil to ensure sat-
isfactory engine life and performance. For
additional information, refer to "Recom-
mended fluids/lubricants and capacities"
earlier in this section.
Select only engine oils that meet the MB229.5
specification and SAE viscosity standard. These
oils have the MB229.5 specification label on the
container. Oils which do not have the specified
quality label should not be used as they could
cause engine damage.
Oil additives
INFINITI does not recommend the use of oil
additives. The use of an oil additive is not
necessary when the proper oil type is used
and maintenance intervals are followed.
Oil which may contain foreign matter or has
been previously used should not be used.
Oil viscosity
The engine oil viscosity or thickness changes
with temperature. Because of this, it is impor-
tant that the engine oil viscosity be selected
based on the temperatures at which the vehicle
will be operated before the next oil change.
Choosing an oil viscosity other than that recom-
mended could cause serious engine damage.
