Infiniti FX50 AWD Engine Oil Specs

The Infiniti FX50 AWD was produced from 2009 to 2013. This model typically uses 10W-60 full synthetic engine oil — a specification common to most Infiniti FX5-series vehicles.

Selecting the correct oil viscosity for your Infiniti FX50 AWD is essential. Using a grade that is too thin reduces protection at operating temperature, while too thick an oil impairs cold-start flow and reduces fuel economy. Always match the exact grade shown for your specific model year.

The recommended oil change interval for the Infiniti FX50 AWD is every 7,500 miles or 9 months. Under severe driving conditions — track use, towing, or frequent cold starts — shorten this interval by 25–30%.

When servicing your Infiniti FX50 AWD, always replace the oil filter at every oil change. Using a quality filter — such as Fram, Mobil 1, or OEM equivalent filters — ensures clean oil circulation through the engine block.

Oil change costs for the Infiniti FX50 AWD at a US dealership or local service center typically range from $60 to $110 for a standard synthetic blend or full synthetic service. DIY oil changes cost approximately $30–$65 in parts (oil + filter) and take about 30 minutes with the right tools.

Always consult your vehicle's owner's manual to confirm the exact specification for your specific trim and engine variant, as some Infiniti FX50 AWD configurations may have different requirements.
