Most idiotic setup I've ever encountered in almost 20+ of changing oil for family members and myself. Whoever made that dipstick should be fired.
Its terrible. So hard to check on a trip. How much would it have cost to give us a 4 inch tube?
Leased a 2019 Frontier 4x4...the dipstick is cheaply made junk...the oil filter is in the worst location possible...the hacks at the factory didn't even bother to paint the inside of the rear wheel wells... I can't wait to give it back to Nissan.
yeah I need a flash light to get the dip stick back in.
yeah this is terrible, its hard to find and can't see... its not visable
It's impossible to get an accurate oil level reading unless you let the car sit overnight.
I place a sheet of aluminum foil over the frame & hoses under the oil filter, so the old oil from the oil filter won't leave a mess (cleaner and less to cleanup) just remove the foil afterwards. I did the same for our ex-Odyssey... ;)
Rick T i was wondering about this. Thanks
I don't own one but your video popped up on my TV.
Great camera work and a great voice and a no BS. No drama very helpful video.
I wish more tubers would follow your lead. I subscribed. Thanks.
Nice to see the VQ35 dipstick hasn't changed since my 02 Maxima. Same crappy design that smears oil all the way up the stick. I have to wait until the next morning to get a proper reading haha
Haha...yep...same crappy dip stick that takes forever to take a good reading!
Super helpful. Just did our first oil change on our 2019 Pathfinder. Wish I had read the comments earlier and bought the supplies from Amazon. O'Reilly's charged me $43 for syth. oil, and $37 for an oil filter. Ridiculous, but since I'm taking her out on a road trip tomorrow, I'll call it a procrastination tax.
Excellent video. Just purchased a 2018 Pathfinder and this will help a bunch on the next oil change.
It's a great SUV. Do the regular maintenance and it will last a long time. Don't forget to change the CVT transmission fluid every 30-40k miles. I have a video on that.
I’d start it up and check for leaks while it’s still on the ramps!
And the number one reason for a leak is the gasket from the old oil filter remaining stuck on the engine. It won’t seal with two gaskets.
Good job. Anyone who does not call an electrician to change a lightbulb is more than capable of changing a vehicle's oil.
great video thank you. Cleared up a couple things for me. The dip stick is the worst thing I have ever seen!!!!
Thank you so much for spending your precious time to make this video! I was able to do an oil change on my 2018 pathfinder for the first time and it was pretty easy! You’re a great person! 👍
Thanks for your comment!
Can't believe how easy it is to access the oil filter. That must be nice! Far easier to access than my Traverse.
I make C shaped piece of poster board and slide it under the old filter prior to removing it so the oil can be directed over the frame rail and into the pan.
Our 2017 Pathfinder has 2 major problems. One is the key fob. No matter how many times we get a brand new key fob, it always shows "key not detected" message once or twice a day.
The second is rear view camera. After backing up, when we drive forward, the camera stays on on the lcd monitor.
Thanks i appreciate your vid. I have a 2018 QX60 coming off of warranty so I’ll be doing whatever I can for service.
Thanks. Very informative video. Just purchased a 2017. Normally do my own oil.
Where can I get the engine revving sound effects like you had when you were loosening the oil filter? I need it for....reasons. lol
I appreciate how u did it exactly by the books. Very professional and appreciated. In your experience, would doing a hand tight job on the filter even come close to spec.
For people that are inexperienced working on cars, telling them to hand tighten the filter could mean a loose filter. I make my video so ANYONE can follow the steps and do the service. After you have done this a bunch of times, then you will have a better 'feel' of how tight it should be.
@@dial2fast thank u. U did a great job on the video.
Well the oil change was extremely quick. The drain plug was really on there. I was less than impressed with the filter. I was easily able to remove it. I Decided to go with a easy drain oil plug. No more having to take off the plug just a quick twist of lever and it drains. I will be looking for any leaks. Used the same oil as u. Did a wix fully synthetic filter. Really enjoyable job. Thanks again for the video. Made it so easy.
great location fir filter- my 2011 xterra gets oil all over due to filter placement
Nice video help me out a lot i was about to remove the tire to get access to oil filter
Good video, thanks. I am at the first oil change for my 2017 Pathfinder and you are correct about the $85 cost at the dealership. You can purchase Nissan synthetic oil with filter and crush washer on Amazon for $25 w/free shipping. I'm ordering that today. Makes for a cheap oil change and no question about the quality. The oil is actually made by Exxon Mobil, so I'm guessing it's actually Mobil 1. Not positive, but why make a different synthetic oil for Nissan than what they already make.
Thanks for your comment!
I take 2017 pathfinder to the dealer ship they charge $50 40 with a coupon
Excellent video with clear instructions and proper info. Thank you
Nice vídeo. I have a Nissan pathfinder 2015 too i recomend to Check power steel fluid . Need to add more.
great video. I just follow it to change my 2018 Pathfinder. thanks.
Man I love your videos. Good job man.
Thanks for your comment!
@@dial2fast I do have one question for you. When you do pathfinder brakes you open brake fluid cap or keep closed. I see people doing both. What is your opinion?
@@chadjohnson7544 I actually talked about this question on my Pathfinder rear brake service (go to 2 min 17 sec). Here is the video ua-cam.com/video/veyZ8oGF8Xk/v-deo.html
Just found it. Thanks again.
Thank you for the well explained video. Very easy
My 2017 is over on oil change and it driving me crazy. We been having to many medical problem. But know not good for my engine. Try get it done this weekend.
Well made video. Thanks!
Use a 14mm socket for drain plug.
Excellent information. You did an awesome job.
Thank you for your comment!
Great video ty
My guy 💯
Thank you for sharing . Great video .
Have u done transmission fluid change or flush? Thanks for the video.
The oil says protection upto 15000 miles .. is that true. If yes then why did you set life for 5000miles only..
Always follow the manufacturer's maintenance schedule specific to your vehicle. 5000 miles is what Nissan recommend for this vehicle. Even if you don't believe in this service interval, you may need to prove you have done the recommended service for your new car warranty for it to be valid. If you do your own service, proof will be receipt for the oil and filter.
dial2fast i see.. thanks for replying..
It's really simple. Oil is cheap and engines are not. 😆
Dont use a wrench to TIGHTEN the oil filter!!
Ramone J why?
@@TropicalChris Because it's way tighter than necessary. Hand tight is just fine.
@@chuckschillingvideos Agreed. Never ever had a leak by hand tightening.
The owners manual says 11-14 ft-lbs@@chuckschillingvideos
Thanks for your videos. helps alot. I have a Nissan Pathfinder 2017. Everytime I take it to Nissan for the regular service i look at the oil on the invoice and they use Castrol 5w-30 engine oil. Im confused cos on my car manual book. it states 0w-20. Im going to do the service myself and still up in the air if I should use 5w-30 or 0w-20? Writing from Sydney Australia.
Kindly do video for CVT oil change
Probably do the service end of the year.
Thank you Sir. Great video
excelente video
What kind of lights do you use for the fog lights? I will be buying the same year Pathfinder you have just a lower trim and they all come with like a yellow-ish color light and I hate it 😂 I want the fog lights to match the headlights.
Great job thank you 🙏
Hi there, can you please show me how to check oil life on dashboard
Very well done video.
Tanks
Great Video. Does the new 2017 engine REQUIRE Premium Fuel? ......I know for a fact that the 2016 Engine PREMIUM was recommended , but it was not required. Thank you for the video
It does not require premium gas.
В этом видео вы говорили что откроете фильтра и покажете что внутри, где это видео можно посмотреть ?
Have you made a video regarding the service on your transmission ????
I should be doing the service end of this year. Typically you want to do it around 50k.
Well explained
How do you change the motor for the booth of the pathfinder
Hi I am searching for drain crush washer the copper one. I cant find it online. what is the exact name for that? they come all the same size or what?
do you have a video on spark plugs for Nissan Pathfinder 2017?
Sorry not yet. Only at 65k miles.
Thank you 🙏
My Pathfinder is 16 since the day I purchased they told me to used a sinteric oil 0W20 and I go to the dealership to change my oil I pay only $50
Great video ... have you done a transmission service? Thank you 👍🏼
No, car is still rather new. You should do the transmission drain and fill at 50k miles.
dial2fast how many litres does the transmission take? Im about to change cvt fluid on my 2017 butbi cant find where it says the capacity.
@@jassarrashad7283 5 quarts I some times 5.5
Hi bro can you do an padded comando on an 2008 honda accord instal
U vould put some tin foil under the filter so it doesnt make a mess
Oil will get everywhere. It's messy regardless. Just do the oil change and wipe it after.
How u got that emblem on the side of the Nissan sign in the front.
How many miles on the pathfinder now.
My question for you is I have a jx35 infinity what types of oil should buy for my future oil changed and how often you changed your oil?
5w-30 is what is recommended for the JX35. I have one also and just did the oil change on it. I used High Mileage Mobil 1 Full Synthetic that I bought at Walmart for like $23. My JX35 isn't driven much (about 1000 miles a year), so I just did the first oil change in over a year.
Otherwise, I'd perform the oil change every 5,ooo miles.
I have a 2017 pathfinder and looks like the same engine. The manual suggest 0w-20 conventional oil. seems like it should be synthetic.
How will this oil hold up in Houston summer months?
Thanks
This oil is fine for Texas.
What u think of the car so far.i test drove the platium few days ago at dealership. I like the car however i have heard that its bottom in terms of reliability as compare to its competitors and had problem with cvt.
As for driving i did found the cvt was noiser and so was engine. The interior dashboard is ok. Nothing exciting as highlander or pilot. But the materials are nice to touch. It didnt give the "wow" factor. I know these suvs will not have wow factor. But this was my 1st testdrive. I will drive its competition and then be able to compare
As
I really like my Pathfinder and it's such a comfortable ride. Yes the dash is not very fancy but one think I learn to enjoy having is real physical buttons and switches. I can change HVAC, volume, Nav, Radio with a simple button push without have to take my eyes off the road and navigate through some touchscreen button. The materials inside a Nissan has always been better quality than your Honda or Toyota. Honda cars are designed to 'look' good, but they use some pretty cheap materials. I know because I also own a Honda. Another thing I find with the Pathfinder is because this platform is shared with the Infiniti QX60, you pretty much get all the great quality parts with a Nissan badge. I like the Highlander, but its way smaller. The Mazda CX9 looks awesome but I am not confident in the longevity of the turbo 4 banger. The last gen Pathfinder did have an issue with the CVT but Nissan had a fix for it. You can usually get a good discount on the Nissan which makes the PF a great buy.
I have a 2017 pathfinder sl and couldnt be happier. I've only got just over 9,000 miles on it. It handles well in the snow as well. It has low miles as i spent time flying for work but so far its now a daily driver and no complaints.
I had a 2017 PF Platinum for about 3 years, put 150K Km on it with absolutely no issues. My second PF, 1st was a 2014 SL, again about 3 years and 150K Km and no issues.
Que oil recomiendas para Pathfinder s 2016 con 101457 millas ?
Tengo 2015 desde nueva utilizo mobil1 0w 20 ahora tengo 102xxx.
Hi, dial2fast. Im having a lot of trouble getting a good oil level reading from the dipstick. It shows a really really high oil level despite me only putting in 4.75 quarts after draining and refilling with no oil filter change.
The Nissan V6 engine's dipstick can be hard to read. The trick is after you stop the engine, you have to wait 1-2 minutes for the oil to settle. Then pull out the didstick and, wipe it clean then insert it all the way in. Pull it out and you will see one side of the dipstick is coated with oil but the other side should have an accurate reading. The oil level should be between the 2 dots.
@@dial2fast thank you. I will try that.
Due to the orientation of the dipstick handle, is the accurate side the side without the H and L etched into the metal? On the side with the etching, the oil level reads very high
@@HhhGggg-rz7bu The dipstick can be inserted either way so the side that shows accurate oil reading can be either side. Just look on both sides and you will see which side has the accurate reading.
So does the 2015 use synthetic oil
Got that suv sold it had CVT problems had 15,000 miles the transmission want out Nissan replaced it but come on only very little miles. Nissan makes bad transmissions.
Rifi B good luck with it not fan anymore with infinity or Nissan. Want to Chevy no problem yet.
i have a 2009 rogue CVT transmission. 300k miles no issues with the transmission.
I have a 2017 with 65,000KM and no issues yet.... keeping fingers crossed. My last Nissan with a CVT worked fantastic. Traded it in with 375,000km on this Pathfinder. It is hit and miss by the sounds of it...

Quick question what are the bulb are you using for your fog lights ?
I am currently running the Auxbeam F-T1 LED lights in the fogs and it's working very well. The bulb size is H11. Here is the link: amzn.to/2w93vhk
what is the wrench you used to put the filter back on? i cant seem to find one that fits.
The Nissan filter is a 63mm size. The tool I have was purchased long time ago, and it's no longer sold. You can tighten by hand as long as turn it 2/3 turn after the gasket makes contact.
Just want to confirm, this oil filter should also work with 2017 QX60, correct?
Yes its the same.
I'm getting a high pitch whirring noise after my oil change. sounds like it coming from the filter. have you had this?
I know the Pathfinder has a high pitch sound from the power steering area in the passenger side but that is normal even when new.
How many liter v6 oil
How many miles you have now?
24,000 miles
Have u ever done a spark plug change
Not yet. I am only at 23k miles. Long way to go.
Ok cool thank you if u do happen to do a plug change please post.thanks
It's is possible while i changed my oil, do I have to change the pan or leave it as is
Don't change the pan.
Do you know if this is similar to 2014 QX60 hybrid?
The hybrid is powered by a supercharged 2.5-liter twin-cam 16-valve four cylinder engine. The non hybrid is a 3.5L V6, so it's not the same.
💙💙🤙🏾
Could they make the dipstick location more awkward! Jeesh 🤦🏼♂️
I agree the dipstick location is terrible. I always have use a flashlight to put the dipstick back in,
Hey there, im interested in about when you start your vehicle, I heard the sounds. How to get the sounds? thx
What size filter wrech attachment did you use?
Nissan filter is 63 mm
@@dial2fast where did you buy the filter socket used in the video?
@@HhhGggg-rz7bu They don't really sell 63mm filter wrench. You can also use a 64mm wrench like this one amzn.to/3JDyzrZ
Always when changing the engine oil and replacing the filter with a new one You have to put a quantity of new oil inside the filter and wait for at least ten minutes before installing it in the engine so that the new oil absorbs Because when you install the new filter and the new oil and you start the engine, you will deprive the engine of oil for a period of no less than five minutes, and this is very harmful to the engine. So most of you when you change the oil and start the engine, you hear a strange sound when running, and this is because the engine works without lubrication for the engine cycle
False
👍
Pro Tip #1
Put foil before removing filter to avoid having it leak everywhere.
Pro Tip #2
Purchase the oil at Home Depot and use your Military / Veteran's discount. $24 bucks for a five quart!
Or get the oil at Walmart for about $23 for anyone.
Take a look at Bob is the oil guy. Forum a lot of good stuff on there.
Is there enough space to get between the passenger wheel to get to the filter? The other videos I've seen, have you jacking up the car and removing the wheel to remove that splash cover. I have a 2017 QX60. I've changed the oil myself before but was close enough to a friends body shop and just put the entire car up on a lift and removed the wheel. Curious to know how it works with just ramps.
I myself prefer to use ramps like you see in the video. I have done so for past 15 years, and it makes the job so much easier. They are inexpensive also. Definitely faster than using a jack (which I have also for other repair jobs).
Nate Smith Changed on ramps and was able to pull the filter without taking tire off
You voided your warranty
No.
Great video. Thank you
Thanks for your comment!
can a vacuum pump be used to do the oil change on this 2017 model?
Never tried but not sure why you want to go that route if you also need to replace the oil filter.
@@dial2fast Well not having to remove the drain plug and replacing the crush washer and not needing to jack it up. I saw another video where they turned the wheel to the right to access the oil filter.
@@bnguy619 Well I know some people will try to provide these shortcuts which really are not shortcuts. The idea may sound good, but they don't work in the real world. Without raising the front end, you will end up wasting more time trying to work in the limited space you have. Ramps are relatively cheap and you can use it with every oil change. You can give it a go and see how it works out.
