How often should you get an oil change?

• For a 2023 Nissan GT-R, follow the owner’s manual and Nissan maintenance schedule; many owners choose service every 5,000–7,500 miles for normal driving to balance protection and cost.
• Severe use—track days, spirited driving, frequent short trips, or towing—warrants more frequent changes (often every 3,000–5,000 miles).
• Time-based intervals matter too; if mileage is low, change oil at least once a year or per the manufacturer recommendation to prevent oil degradation.
• Coggin Nissan at the Avenues monitors your service history and can recommend a personalized interval based on driving habits and conditions.

What type of oil does a 2023 Nissan GT-R take?

• Nissan recommends full synthetic engine oil—commonly 5W-30—for the 3.8L twin-turbo V6 to maintain viscosity under high temperatures and RPM.
• OEM-grade synthetic oils protect turbochargers, bearings, and seals while supporting performance and emissions systems.
• Using the recommended oil at our dealership ensures compatibility with factory tolerances and helps preserve warranty coverage.
• Our technicians will verify the correct spec for your VIN and can provide higher-performance oils if you require track-focused service.

How much oil does a 2023 Nissan GT-R need?

• The 3.8L V6 in the 2023 Nissan GT-R typically requires approximately 10.9 US quarts (about 10.3 liters) with a filter change—always confirm exact capacity in your owner’s manual.
• Exact fill volumes may vary slightly based on oil grade and drain procedures; our technicians measure and top off to the manufacturer’s specification.
• Proper fill levels are critical for turbocharged engines to ensure lubrication and cooling of the turbo system under heavy load.
• Have our service team perform the change to ensure accurate oil quantity, disposal, and proper system checks.
