2023 INFINITI QX60 oil capacities

CAUTION
Be sure to remove any old gasket material
remaining on the sealing surface of the en-
gine. Failure to do so could lead to an oil
leak and engine damage.
• The dipstick must be inserted in place to
prevent oil spillage from the dipstick hole
when filling the engine with oil.
6. Coat the gasket on the new filter with clean engine oil.
7. Screw in the oil filter clockwise until a slight resistance is felt, then tighten addi-
tionally more than 2/3 turn.
Oil filter tightening torque: 11 to 15 ft-lb (15.0 to 21.0 N·m)
8. Clean and re-install the drain plug with a new washer. Securely tighten the drain
plug with a wrench. Do not use excessive
force.
Drain plug tightening torque: 22 to 29 ft-lb (29.4 to 39.2 N·m)
9. Refill the engine with the recommended oil through the oil filler opening, and install
the oil filler cap securely. For additional information about drain and
refill capacity, see “Recommended fluids/
lubricants and capacities” (P. 10-2). The drain
and refill capacity depends on the oil tem-
perature and drain time. Use these specifica-
tions for reference only. Always use the dip-
stick to determine the proper amount of oil in
the engine.
10. Start the engine and check for leakage
around the drain plug and the oil filter.
Correct as required. Turn the engine off
and wait more than 15 minutes. Check
the oil level with the dipstick. Add engine
oil if necessary.
After the operation
1. Reinstall engine protectors in reverse or-der of removal.
2. Lower the vehicle carefully to the ground.
3. Reset oil control system. For additional information, see “Vehicle information dis-
play 7 inch (18 cm) Type A” (P. 2-22) or
“Vehicle information display 12.3 inch (31
cm) Type B” (P. 2-44).
• Dispose of waste oil and filter properly.
• Check your local regulations. When checking or replacement is required, it
is recommended that you visit an INFINITI
retailer for this service.
CAUTION
• INFINITI recommends using Genuine
NISSAN Matic R ATF. Do not mix with
other fluids.
• Do not use CVT fluid or manual transmis-
sion fluid in this transmission. Damage
caused by the use of fluids other than as
recommended is not covered under
INFINITI’s New Vehicle Limited War-
ranty outlined in your Warranty Infor-
mation Booklet.
• Using fluids that are not equivalent to
Genuine NISSAN Matic R ATF may also
damage the transmission. Damage
caused by the use of fluids other than as
recommended is not covered under
INFINITI’s New Vehicle Limited War-
ranty outlined in your Warranty Infor-
mation Booklet.
The specified automatic transmission fluid is
also described on caution labels located in the
engine compartment.

LUBRICANTS AND CAPACITIES
10-2Technical and consumer information

Octane rating tips
Using unleaded gasoline with an octane rat-
ing lower than recommended can cause per-
sistent, heavy “spark knock.” (“Spark knock”
is a metallic rapping noise.) If severe, this can
lead to engine damage. If you detect a per-
sistent 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 that you have an INFINITI retailer
correct the condition. Failure to correct the
condition is misuse of the vehicle, for which
INFINITI is not responsible.
Incorrect ignition timing may result in spark
knock, after-run and/or overheating, which
may cause excessive fuel consumption or en-
gine damage. If any of the above symptoms
are encountered, have your vehicle checked.
It is recommended that 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 not a 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, see "Recommended
fluids/lubricants and capacities" (P. 10-2).
INFINITI recommends the use of an energy
conserving oil in order to improve fuel
economy.Select only engine oils that meet the Ameri-
can Petroleum Institute (API) certification or
International Lubricant Standardization and
Approval Committee (ILSAC) certification
and SAE viscosity standard. These oils have
the API certification mark on the front of the
container. Oils which do not have the speci-
fied 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.

FUEL RECOMMENDATION:
INFINITI recommends the use of unleaded
premium gasoline with an octane rating of at
least 91 AKI (Anti-Knock Index) number (Re-
search octane number 96). If unleaded pre-
mium gasoline is not available, you may use
unleaded regular gasoline with an octane rat-
ing of at least 87 AKI number (Research oc-
tane number 91), but you may notice a de-
crease in performance.
CAUTION
• Only vehicles with the E-85 filler door
label can operate on E-85. Fuel system
or other damage can occur if E-85 is used
in vehicles that are not designed to run
on E-85.
• Using a fuel other than that specified
could adversely affect the emission con-
trol system, and may also affect the war-
ranty coverage.
• Under no circumstances should a leaded
gasoline be used, because this will dam-
age the three-way catalyst. •
Do not use a fuel containing more than
15% ethanol in your vehicle. Your vehicle
is not designed to run on a fuel contain-
ing more than 15% ethanol. Using a fuel
containing more than 15% ethanol in a
vehicle not specifically designed for a
fuel containing more than 15% ethanol
can adversely affect the emission control
devices and systems of the vehicle. Dam-
age caused by such fuel is not covered
by the INFINITI New Vehicle Limited
Warranty.
• Do not use fuel that contains the octane
booster methylcyclopentadienyl man-
ganese tricarbonyl (MMT). Using fuel
containing MMT may adversely affect
vehicle performance and vehicle emis-
sions. Not all fuel dispensers are labeled
to indicate MMT content, so you may
have to consult your gasoline retailer for
more details. Note that Federal and
California laws prohibit the use of MMT
in reformulated gasoline.
• U.S. government regulations require
ethanol dispensing pumps to be identi-
fied by a small, square, orange and black
label with the common abbreviation or
the appropriate percentage for that
region. For additional information, see “Recom-
mended fluids/lubricants and capacities”
(P. 10-2).
ENGINE OIL
RECOMMENDATION:
See “Recommended fluids/lubricants and ca-
pacities” (P. 10-2).
COLD TIRE PRESSURE:
For additional information, see “Tire and
Loading Information label” (P. 10-12).
The label is typically located on the driver side
center pillar or on the driver's door. For addi-
tional information, see “Wheels and tires”
(P. 8-28).
RECOMMENDED NEW VEHICLE
BREAK-IN PROCEDURE:
During the first 1,200 miles (2,000 km) of
vehicle use, follow the break-in procedure
recommendations for the future reliability
and economy of your new vehicle. For addi-
tional information, see “Break-in schedule”
(P. 5-159). Failure to follow these recom-
mendations may result in vehicle damage or
shortened engine life.
