2016 NISSAN TITAN XD CUMMINS DIESEL FUEL FILTER CHANGE
Вставка
- Опубліковано 19 січ 2018
- When I purchased my TITAN XD all Dealers I talked to told me it was too difficult to change and NO one should attempt to perform this activity. The dealers will charge approximately $350.00 - $500.00 for about a 20 minute job, and this is every 10K miles. Filters cost is around $100.00 bucks total, and a little additional first time expense if you don't already own some tools to do it. It's not hard, it took me around 1 hour! GOOD LUCK hope this video helps you. Of course if you like you may still go to your dealer. LOL
Thanks! I always do my own maintenance and could have figured this out on my own, but it's nice to have a step by step videos. Thanks again!
Thanks for taking the time to show us how to do this. It will be a great money saver!
I have a 2017 titan xd 5.0 pro 4x and i was quoted around $250 for this job.I purchased the oem filters from a nissan dealership for around $85 bucks for both filters.I did my first change at 10,000 miles and my second at 20,000 miles(at 21,104miles). No way would i pay someone $250 dollars to do something i can that takes me about 30 minutes to do if that.Great video btw!!!
Save some more money, they're $45 on ebay.

Hows the truck holding up i going too purchase one this week
it's pretty nice that it has a secondary filter, it's something we have to install ourselves in AUS, most diesels only have 1 main filter. it's reasonably cheap to do though.
cheers for the vid
Thanks for the vid. Have 12k on my '17 and followed your instruction with no issues. Only thing I did different was start up the truck after the 1st filter swap to cancel out anything that may have gone wrong.
I'll be doing this for the first time this coming week. Thanks for taking the time to post this very useful info.
Glad it was helpful!
Just did mine, it was super easy and cost effective. Your video was of great help.
Glad it helped
Thanks for the great informative video. Just purchased my 2017 nissan titan xd sl today and got that same warning today...now I know what to do to get it going again...thanks alot.
Great video! Thanks, I will be doing this myself for sure.
Thanks for this video, I recently bought a 2016 Titan XD Pro 4X diesel. I've never owned a diesel before and figured the maintaince would be higher. I'll for sure be doing this myself.
Caesar the Boxer glad it help you out. :).
Thanks brother! Very detailed and helped me with zero problems.
Thanks for the well done and informative how to video. Kudos! Oh, and I have a 2016 Titan XD Platinum Reserve Diesel with the same base color but mine is one solid color no lower secondary color.
Thanks for making this video. It's really detail. Now I can DIY my truck
megamokyle I’m glad you found it useful. JE
Excellent Video Very thorough!! Thank You!
Excellent video, followed along and the hints from the comments. Thanks!
Glad it helped!
Great video! Thanks for sharing. It was very informative.
Thank you !!! Very informative, I was able to complete the process with ease.
Thanks :)
Have a 2016 Pro4x and a new subscriber to your channel thanx for the Vid a big help
Great video, very informative, thank you!
Great video and thanks for the effort. Few things though:
1. It's a 28mm socket and you should put one hand on top of the ratchet head to ensure socket is not "pulling off" when turning when changing engine bay filter.
2. You really should be using a torque wrench and torque to spec during installation. I would also encourage a paint marker to mark the filter housing and head location before and after service. Especially in the engine bay. Bottom side is a no brainier with the sending unit but still good practice.
3. You can use the same clean motor oil you use in your engine to lube the oring. Petroleum Jelly not required.
Andy, do you know what the torque spec's are?
I found the spec's in my owners manual, it's 21ft/lbs
Thank you ☺️ great video
2 things; it is recommended to replace the stage 1 filter first (the one under the chassis), and also you didn't lubricate the inner O-rings of the stage 1 filter- very important
Thank you for taking the time to make and post this video.
Changed my filters for the 1st time and including priming the pump took 30 minutes.
Dealer wanted $125 labor and $100 for filters. $225 total.
Nissan Filters off Amazon $ 89 and it came with oil filter I'll use at next oil change.
Once again thanks.
Have a Jesus filled day
Greg in Michigan
Ps ....
Now that Nissan not going to make the Cummins turbo diesel will I be able to get parts 6 to 8 years from now? Nissan isn't sending mechanics to school for this engine anymore. Will an independent mechanic have the special Cummins equipment to read codes to fix it???
Too bad, love this truck. Driven Nissan titan trucks since 2004. This will be my last. Not what I wanted!!!
Hi Greg, Glad you found it useful. I really do not think changing the fuel filters every 10k is necessary, but to keep the warrantee in tacked I change them. Also, I just learned that Nissan took the XD Diesel off the production line for 2020, I'm disappointed. It has been a good truck and it fits in my garage unlike the 2500s and 250s.
Wow!! Thank you so much! Dealer wants me to change $600 to do that! They are nuts!!
Believe it or not, one dealer that I called; they said each filter it’s $600 dollars!! That’s insane. It was a dealer in downtown la! I have to say it!!
Thanks a lot for posting !!!
Glad it helped you!
Love the colour.
As you’ve found out, that valve DOES NOT drain the filter housing. If left open, it’ll simply be gravity fed from the tank. It’s strictly to drain water that may have accumulated over time.
Thanks for this video. At how many miles did you change the filter on your truck?
Terry Smith every 10k miles, I Think that’s too soon, but I sticking with NISSAN’s recommendation. I wanted to help people save some money since it is so often. The competition is much longer between fuel filter changes. Glad you liked the video, and I hope it helped you.
As someone else said, those filters where still very clean. I've got the 2017 XD and change my fuel filters every 20,000 miles and they are still just slightly dirtier than the ones you pulled out of your truck. As to the warranty issue, if I have a problem with the engine that required a warranty job I'd just change the filters out before taking it in if I had more than the required 10,000 miles on the filters. That cuts the argument off at the pass.
Y disconnect the battery tho?
Nice video. How do you like the truck overall? I’m due for a new truck and these really intrigue me. I have about a 30 mile each way highway commute to work, sometimes with a lot of payload. Not a lead foot, just like a nice ride. Would like your opinion on the truck
Alan Wilson Thank you! It’s been a great truck for me. It is my primary mode of transportation. If you’re looking for something in the hefty 1/2 ton market this truck is worth looking into. Fuel mileage is good for a 8k lbs truck, tows a hefty 12k lbs., plenty for me, and it fits in my garage. Good Luck and thanks for watching my video.
first time doing mine today. 2017 with 32K on it. Everything went smooth til I went to start it it. Primed iit a few times before starting it. Waited the 90 secs each time. Fuel pressure warning light never went away. Truck started right away and ran for a minute or so. While I was under it looking for leaks I could hear the lift pump getting loader almost like air was rushing thru it or something. Shut it off. Hasnt started since. Tow truck on the way right now. I'm so fn pissed its stupid. Anyone know anything about it ??
Gracias por el vídeo
Advise to run fuel tank to below 1/4 tank anything over that will drain it down to 1/4 tank or less. The anti-siphon valve does not work. I was at the Nissan service department and they said the even have changed them out and they still leak..
So don’t do this unless the fuel tank is 1/4 or less? Mine is around 4/5 a tank and was gonna do this today.
I get mine on Amazon from Conyers Nissan for 69.99 its a kit that includes P/N: 16403-EZ41A and 16403-EZ40A and the Oil filter is $6.40 15208-EZ40A. Job takes literally 10 mins for the fuel filters. The oil is 10 quarts w/ filter and takes a bit longer due to having to remove the lower skid pan. If you pay $250 or more for that service you should try it yourself. It's not that hard.
james Thank you for the info. Very helpful! Julio
How many gallons of diesel fuel does you titan hold? I saw your miles till empty at 589 miles I can only get to like 458 miles to empty on mine
doug smith He might have the 55 gal fuel tank.
Having issues starting it up, tried the first time and primed it about 3 times, truck didn’t start. Kept trying every 10 minutes and didn’t start, any help?
Sorry to hear that. I never experience that anomaly. Make sure all is adequately tight, as any air will cause problems. It could also mean your fuel pump is acting up, which would be coincidentally with changing out the fuel filters. I had 131,000 miles on my Titan XD, I changed the fuel filter every 10K miles or less, never had that issue. Unfortunately it was totaled in a serious car accident with my Travel Trailer in tow. I am sad to lose it.
Thanks for the video, Although i am curious why you disconnected the battery’s unless just for safety concerns peace of mind. Also not to be a No it all,,, those 3 bolts on that guard i just loosen mine enough we’re the metal guard and you have plenty of room to remove the rear filter cover. ✌🏻
I believe in the manual it states to disconnect the negative on both batteries
@@danielfrain3521 Makes sense it’s fuel better to be safe than sorry, I rushed through it and didn’t disconnect either batteries and then watched the video and was hoping I didn’t mess it up. No issues but you would think i would no better since i work in the engineering prototype lab and made the tooling to make those filters. 🤦♂️ Hey thanks for your reply!
How do you manage to get that much miles on a full tank? I can bearly get 300-380
I get 450 with 15.9 mpg
Why do you have to disconnect battery? Does it keep the fuel filter pressurized if not connected?
I’ve seen people do the job without disconnecting the batteries. It’s in the filter literature to disconnect the batteries, I decided to follow that. it certainly can’t be worse than leaving them connected. Hope that helps you :)
This is the first diesel I've heard of that the batteries have to be disconnected to change a fuel filter..I live in Ireland were 70 percent of all cars buses and trucks are diesels ...and batteries on all of them do not have to be disconnected..
Did you install a larger fuel tank? I noticed you get 589 miles on a full tank but I know my truck doesn’t get that many miles on a full tank.
Greenleaf Solutions, No I did not. I am not confident that that feature is completely accurate, I average about 350 - 375 per tank full. Thanks for watching - Julio
I was just about to ask that same question! 589 miles blew me away! I’m averaging 350 per tank as well but usually only need 21 gallons to fill up even when I seem to be on empty.
Could you do an oil change video?
If you need a video on how to change oil in a truck you should probably have the shop do it
THANKSGIVING
I know its been five years, Do you still own our 2016 Nissan Titan XD? Have you had any issues with the Turbo Charger or 5.0 Cummins Diesel failing?
I own a 2016. I just replaced the turbo actuator but Nissan was aware of issues and added a warranty on it so they replaced it for free. Other than that it’s been good. I enjoy driving this truck.
Hello.
My 2016 5 L turbo engine! after I replaced the this 2 filter my truck display Engine Power Reduced! You my know. Something on it HELP PLEASE ANY ONE!
Thanks for any help
Usually means Diesel exhaust filter full. most diesels reduce power to avoid damage. Sometimes the engine will do a parked regen to clean filter, or driving at high speeds to heat exhaust up to burn soot.
could also be something with EGR cooler limiting power
7repair7 hi. Same issue on my. Fixed and what was a issue? Thx
Why did you disconnect the battery?
Mel Shingleton - Thank you for your question. The reason I said that is because it’s in the filter replacement instructions, reference step 2. Hope this helps.
J. E. Thank you. I was a day away from changing the filters when I check engine light came on. 29,000 miles and my turbo needs to be replaced! I've been told Nissan will release one on July 29th. So maybe mid August I will be able to change the filters.
@@melshingleton5991Nissan extended their warranty on the turbo actuators. Hopefully you took advantage of it already!
Excente video, pero hazlo en Español tambien
Please complete remove the dust shield near the fuel filter. It's easier to work with it completely out of the way. No nuckle smashing..
The first stage filter under the truck is good for 10,000 the second stage under the hood is good for 20,000 that right from Cummins it’s overkill and a waste of money to do both
Wow !! 589 miles estimate ??? 24 gallon tank yeah ?
On another comment he said he only gets around 350-375 miles per tank and that he believes his gauge is incorrect.
Both filters look good still you should of let it more time...
Renato Zarate Over all you’re right. Nissan strongly recommends replacement every 10k miles or the warranty can be jeopardize (So Nissan says). It’s cheap insurance to DIY. However, If one takes their truck to the Nissan dealer the cost goes dramatically higher, hence the drive behind the video. Thanks for watching!
Diesel is a lubricant. Petroleum jelly is pointless on a diesel vehicle.
Also those filters did not need replacement. They were fairly clean which means your fuel system is in good shape.
The jelly is not for anything other than to prevent you from destroying the o rings on install which happens often, also diesel will strip and ruin some types of rubber so using fuel to lubricate the O-Rings isn’t really recommended.
Petroleum jelly is recommended in the owners manual
no one thanks of this. when you change the filter on the engine your contaminating the fuel, the fuel housing is full of fuel when you pull the filter out it dumps shit in the housing
Fuel filters at 10k, WTHell I'm sticking with gas.
Penny the Frenchton well you have to change them because a type of bacteria can grow in diesel fuel and can cause some issues from what I’ve heard
You doing too many gaps in the video. You need to show everything step by step if you’re going to do an instructional video. Geez
