While it's not strictly necessary to use synthetic oil for a Nissan Armada, it is highly recommended. Synthetic oil offers better engine protection, improved performance in extreme temperatures, and longer intervals between oil changes compared to conventional oil. Always consult the owner's manual for specific recommendations regarding oil type and viscosity for your vehicle. Following these guidelines can help maintain your Armada's engine health and efficiency.
For a 2005 Nissan Armada, it's recommended to use 5W-30 viscosity motor oil that meets API certification standards. You can choose either conventional or synthetic oil, with synthetic often providing better performance and protection, especially in extreme temperatures. Always check the owner's manual for any specific requirements or recommendations for your vehicle.
