Morning ya'll. My brother gifted me with his his old 08 sentra se-r SPEC-V 6 speed manual. I'm familiar with the KA24DE very much so but not with this engine (I'm not even sure the engine code or chassis code). If I could be pointed in the correct direction for maintenance (how to check trans fluid and what type of fluids to use for example), it would be much appreciated. I know all of that has been covered somewhere at some point. I tried (and I've never had luck for some reason on any forum) in finding what I'm looking for using the search option.

Thanks in advanced.

The engine in your spec is a QR25, it replaced the KA24 in the '02 Altima and was "wooden leg standard" in the gen3/4/5 Altimas and gen1/2 Rogues. It's a sweet and almost indestructible powerplant with a bottom end so strong they routinely survive hydrolocking with a smile. Nico has a complete FSM for the '08 Sentra, you can find general and identification info in the GI (General Information) section here...

...and just about anything else in the rest of the sections. Welcome to Nico!

Awesome. Thank you so much! Now I've got a good starting point and a little information on the engine type and strength. I much appreciate your time and information
