No. The recommended oil for the 2007 Nissan Altima is 5W-30. According to the 2007 Nissan Altima owner's manual, "choosing an oil viscosity other than that recommended could cause serious engine damage."

I have a case of Synthetic 15W50 oil that I don't need (was for a Harley that I sold). My truck takes 5W20 and my cars take 5W30. Can I use the 15W50 in any of them? Or can I mix the 15W50 with another viscosity to allow use in one of my vehicles?
