Depends on the year which you fail to list. Let me put it another way before you erase my answer. nissan recommends that you use 5w30 or 10w30 on ALL NISSAN SENTRAS made between 1995 and 2012. Not sure pre 1995 but expect it to be the same.
The location is engine specific. Which model Sentra do you have and which engine does it have?
A Nissan Sentra with the 2.5l engine holds 4.5 quarts of oil. When changing oil, keep checking the dipstick to keep from over filling.
5w-30
A 2004 Nissan Sentra typically takes 5W-30 grade oil for optimal performance. It's always best to refer to the owner's manual for the manufacturer's recommended oil grade and specifications.
