2002 Nissan Quest Fluid Capacities

As the drive trains of new vehicles get more advanced and more vehicle-specific, the fluid capacities become more exact among vehicles. The Nissan Quest has four main fluid capacities: engine oil, transmission fluid, coolant and fuel .

Engine Oil

    In earlier years, nearly all vehicles used 4.5 qts. of oil, but recently cars have used as few as 3 qts. and as many as 10 qts. of engine oil. The Nissan Quests 3.3-liter engine requires 4 qts. of oil, including the oil filter.

Transmission Fluid

    The transmission fluid not only acts as a lubricant, but it also acts as a hydraulic fluid, so the exact amount must be used at all times to maintain pressure and lubrication. The transmission fluid capacity of the 2002 Quest is 9.9 qts., or 20 pts.

Coolant

    The coolant is an interesting fluid as it requires a 50-50 mix of anti-freeze/coolant and plain water. The 2002 Quest requires 1 3/8 gallons of coolant combined with 1 3/8 gallons of water, equaling a total capacity of 2 3/4 gallons.

Fuel

    With todays advanced fueling stations that automatically shut off when your tank is full, it is nearly impossible to overfill the fuel tank, but it is still relevant in some cases. The 2002 Nissan Quest has a 20-gallon fuel capacity.
