Nissan Sentra Factory Maintenance Schedule

Each row links to the full specification for that generation, including trim-by-trim breakdowns and the part numbers. Where engines within a generation differ, that page separates them.

The service schedule on a Nissan Sentra is set by its generation, not its model year, so each generation has one page carrying the complete figures, part numbers and fitment notes for every year it covers.

How often does a Nissan Sentra need servicing?

The first scheduled visit is at 5,000 miles or 6 months, whichever comes first, and the pattern repeats from there.

What is due at 30,000 miles on a Nissan Sentra?

Replace engine air filter; Replace in-cabin microfilter; Replace engine oil and filter; Replace Intelligent Key battery (per factory schedule).

What is due at 60,000 miles on a Nissan Sentra?

Repeat 30,000-mile services; Severe service: replace CVT fluid (NS-3).

Does severe service change the schedule for a Nissan Sentra?

Straight from the 2021 owner's manual maintenance tables. Severe service (repeated short trips, dust, extensive idling, hot-climate stop-and-go) moves oil to 5,000-mile intervals and adds the 60,000-mile CVT fluid change, cheap insurance given Nissan CVT history.
