Hello, will make maintenance on J11 1.5DCI 115bhp, looking for advice.
In all me previous cars always buy oil and filters and take it to the garage to change, want to make the same now for qashqai. What oil brand are you using? Filters brand?
Have a look and thinking about Liqui Moly 5w30 Toptec 4200 for oil and filters Purflux, except on the diesel filter the only I found was Mann Filter.
Thanks

To be honest I wouldn't think there's much difference to be had - oil is oil and a filter is a filter. So long as you buy decent branded items including oil matching the advised viscosity requirement from a reliable source I can't see why anyone should be picky about the actual brand.

I understand what you say, and in fact I do agree.
I normally use the oil guide/selector from one brand and I get ACEA C3 for this engine and andy2019 said C4.
I have the 115bhp diesel with Adblue and FAP, whats the correct grade?

What grade does it list in your owner manual. Don't think they would have gone down a grade from c4 to c3 on newer cars

Also, regarding maintenance, at what millage should I change the CVT oil? knowing that I'm at 53k miles and I have never changed it.
Tried looking in the Owner's Manual but it only said inspect but after searching it said that it should be changed every 40 to 50k miles and now I'm confused
