It is recommended that only synthetics brand Shell, Castrol and Mobil oils are used when topping up the engine oil of your patrol. The grade of oil might differ depending on the time of year and temperature in certain areas of South Africa. These grade breakdown would be as follows: All-season with a temperature of +25 to -25 °C it would be 5W-50 10W-60 grade, Winter with a temperature of -35 to +5 °C it would be 0W-50 0W-60 grade and in Summer with a temperature of -5 to +45 °C the grade of oil would be 15W-50 15W-60.

Please contact us with your vehicle VIN number and we will share the exact latest model information with you directly. As a guide however the VK56 K1 5.6-litre V8 engine which powers the Patrol SUV uses 6.5-litres when replacing the oil filter as well, or 6.2-litres without replacing the filter. Please note, manufacturer improvements to the engine of the Patrol could affect these figures even further in the future. Furthermore, when attempting any engine spare part or consumable replacement you might be in danger of voiding your warranty, always check with us before performing any work on your vehicle.

This tyre pressure placard on the inside of the door of the Nissan Patrol recommends a minimum tyre pressure of 35psi. Please note that this is equal to 240kPa or 2.4 bar.

Nissan has not released any official acceleration figures for the Patrol, however, it does in our test driving experience deliver a very decent linear acceleration and offers a very good overtaking performance.

The New Nissan Patrol has an impressive top speed of 210 kilometres per hour!

The mileage of a new Nissan Patrol will always be very low as the few kilometres it does have on it would have been accrued through rolling of the manufacturing floor at the factory and positioning the vehicle on the showroom floor. If you take delivery of your new vehicle at your home or place of work the vehicle will be driven to the destination if it is close to one of our showrooms. Nationwide delivery to outlying areas would involve a specialised vehicle delivery truck with a possible short drive to a central storage area before you take delivery. Either way, the mileage added to your new vehicle should be negligible.

As a guideline, we suggest that you use a type 650 CR battery. Please note however that this is a guide only and we suggest that you bring your vehicle to us or take it to an automotive battery specialist before performing a battery change yourself. Not only could the wrong battery potentially damage the electronics system of your vehicle, but this action could also possibly void your vehicle warranty. Chat to our team of technical experts before performing any work on your Patrol.
