“Fluid” Driving Begins with the Proper Fluid Levels

Whether you’re wanting to unleash proud growls and track-tier speed from your Nissan GT-R or seeking to smooth out your commutes in your Rogue Sport, you’ll want to ensure your fluids are sitting at the optimal levels. Start off with an oil change, where our service center supplies you with conventional and full synthetic engine oil blends to help your Nissan model keep up with your performance tastes. As a rule of thumb, we recommend an oil change every 3,000-10,000 miles depending on the type of oil your ride needs.

For our next car maintenance tip for your Nissan cruiser, you’ll also want to top off your fluids for your radiator, transmission, brakes, and power steering to help you drive in premium condition, from accelerating on demand to stopping without sliding into the middle of an intersection. Don’t forget, pollen, rain, and debris from the road can dirty your windshield, so make sure your wiper fluid is also full to help you clean off your front windshield and help boost your visibility on virtually all roads.

Routine Checkups and Replacements: The Key to Smooth Drives

Ever wonder what is included in Nissan maintenance? Schedule with us, and our technicians will help make sure your vehicle is ready for the spring by checking for potential issues with systems like your battery, and making a replacement when needed—after all, what’s more annoying than missing a day of work or an appointment as a result of your power source not cranking your motor?

Next, our technicians will also check your tires and make replacements when your tread runs low, helping you better stop in time to avoid fender benders or hydroplaning through a red light. You can also check your tread yourself by inserting a penny head-first into your groves—can you see the top of Lincoln’s head? Then it’s time for a new set of tires.

Lastly, make sure your emergency kit still has all parts functioning. You never know when the unexpected will happen and you’ll break down in a bad area or an accident occurs at an inconvenient time—so make sure you’re prepared at virtually all times.
