Ok I can feel someone is about to flame me on this question but w/e i tried searching...
Anyways i just recently purchuse myself an 01 i30 with 70k miles and I checked my oil and its time for and oil change. My question is how many quarts of oil should i use? Also if theres like a " How to thread" that someone can link me to that'll help too. If anyone wanted to know I'm using carstrol gtx 10-w30 till i hit 75k. Thanks

Well my friend's dad owns an auto shop and lets us work on our cars. Thats not a bad idea about changing the trans fuild also.

Thanks for everyone help. It was actually very easy lol. The filter is right behind the pass front wheel so we didn't even put it on the lift. My question is I kno the book says 10w is there really any difference using synthetic? I went to the Infiniti dealer and i overherd someone who worked there tellin a customer theres no need for synthetic becuase its not recommended. I don't kno if he knew what he was talkin about becuase he also said you can switch back and forth whitch i knew was not true lol.

If the oil light comes on and stays on, it is usually too late because then it has barely any oil left ![laugh](https://maxima.org/forums/images/smilies/laugh.gif)
There is a LONG oil thread in the Fluids Section, where you'll find info like Mobil 1 synthetic is too thin for a 30 weight...etc
