2008 Nissan Sentra Oil Capacity
The 2008 Nissan Sentra’s oil capacity depends on which engine it has: the MR20DE takes 4.1 qt, while the QR25DE takes 4.5 qt. Both engines use 5W-30 oil. Check the engine designation for your vehicle before using the capacity listed here; the figures are not interchangeable.
Read each capacity as the amount associated with that engine, and use the listed oil grade for either version. These facts cover the 2008 model year and distinguish the two engines, rather than describing a single capacity for every Sentra. If you cannot confirm which engine your vehicle has, or need a figure not listed here, confirm it in the owner’s manual.
