If you’re the owner of an Infiniti QX50, then you know that it’s important to keep up with the required oil changes. But did you know that the Infiniti QX50 has a specific Engine Oil Capacity? In this article, we will discuss the Infiniti QX50 Engine Oil Capacity and provide some tips on how to best maintain your vehicle.
2014 2015 2016 2017 Infiniti QX50 Engine Oil Capacity
| Engine | Engine Oil Capacity with filter | Oil type (viscosity grade) |
| 3.7 L V6 VQ37VHR 320 hp (239 kW) | 5.2 quarts (5 L) | 5W-30 |
VQ37VHR Oil Drain Plug Torques: 25 ft/lbs
It is essential to choose the correct grade, quality, and viscosity of engine oil to ensure satisfactory engine life and performance. For additional information, refer to “Recommended fluids/lubricants and capacities” in this section. INFINITI recommends the use of energy-conserving oil in order to improve fuel economy.
Select only engine oils that meet the American Petroleum Institute (API) certification or International Lubricant Standardization and Approval Committee (ILSAC) certification and SAE viscosity standard. These oils have the API certification mark on the front of the container. Oils that do not have the specified quality label should not be used as they could cause engine damage.

How Much Oil Does An Infiniti QX50 Take?
The QX50 takes five quarts of oil, so make sure to have plenty on hand before starting your next oil change! Infiniti QX50 requires 5W-30 synthetic oil.
Only engine oils that have an API certification or an International Lubricant Standardization and Approval Committee (ILSAC) certificate, as well as an SAE viscosity standard, should be used. These oils include the API label on the front of the container. Engine damage may occur if oils do not contain the specified quality label, so they should not be used.
In addition to the best motor oil for Infiniti QX50, you’ll also need some other supplies:
- funnel
- oil filter wrench
- new crush washer (if needed)
- rags or paper towels
- jack and lug wrench (or a car lift!)
After acquiring all of these items, you’re ready to start changing the oil in your Infiniti QX50! Be sure to follow the manufacturer’s recommended intervals for changes – typically every 7000 miles or every six months.
When your car was built, it was filled with high-quality engine oil. There is no need to replace the oil before the first suggested change interval. Oil and filter replacement guidelines are determined by how you drive your automobile.
Engine oil viscosity changes with temperature. As a result, it’s critical to choose an engine oil viscosity according to the temperatures at which the car will be operated before the next oil change. Using an oil viscosity other than that recommended may cause significant engine damage.
Damage to the engine caused by improper maintenance or use of incorrect oil and filter quality and/or viscosity is not covered by the INFINITI New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
The oil and oil filter change intervals for your engine are based on the use of the specified quality oils and filters. Using engine oil and filters that are not of the specified quality, or exceeding recommended oil and filter change intervals could reduce engine life.
If the above motor oil (or engine oil) is not available, a synthetic SAE 5W-30 GF-5 SN motor oil (or engine oil) may be used. Damage caused by the use of motor oil (or engine oil) other than as recommended is not covered under INFINITI’s New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
Your engine was filled with high-quality engine oil when it was built. You do not have to change the oil before the first recommended change interval. Oil and filter change intervals depend upon how you use your vehicle.
The engine oil viscosity or thickness changes with temperature. Because of this, it is important to select the engine oil viscosity based on the temperatures at which the vehicle will be operated before the next oil change. Choosing an oil viscosity other than that recommended could cause serious engine damage.
