Original Nissan Oil Filters

The engine at the heart of your Nissan vehicle depends on clean motor oil running through it. The thing is, even the freshest motor oil still contains impurities. If those make their way to your engine, they can begin to collect and create performance issues. That's why your vehicle came with an oil filter.

How Your Oil Filter Works

The oil filter strains those contaminants out of the oil before it heads off to your engine and lubricates the moving parts. Since motor oil also collects pollutants that are building up in your engine, the filter removes those as well before the oil returns to the engine. Eventually, though, even the best oil filter will get clogged or begin to degrade. That's not ideal.

How to Spot Oil Filter Failure

You should always check your owner's manual to determine how often you should change your oil filter. However, if you notice any of these signs you should examine yours immediately:

• Your oil pressure dash light comes in
• The engine's performance worsens
• Your engine begins sputtering
• You notice dirty smoke coming from your exhaust
• The engine makes odd noises
