MAINTENANCE GUIDES

We make our vehicles to last but they do need attention. Regular maintenance will keep your Nissan at its peak.

What does maintenance involve?

Oil, fluid and coolants need to be topped up or replaced while rubber hoses and belts need to be checked for deterioration. Brake pads and other parts also need to be looked at.

How often?

If you’re driving under normal conditions, make sure you follow the maintenance schedule set out in your Customer Information Booklet.

If you drive in any of these conditions, follow the Maintenance Under Severe Driving Conditions schedule in your booklet:

Driving in dusty conditions
Repeatedly driving short distances
Towing a trailer or caravan
Extensive idling
Driving in extremely adverse weather conditions or extremely low or extremely high temperatures
Driving in high humidity or mountainous areas
Driving in areas which are high in salt or other corrosive materials
Driving on rough and/or muddy roads or in the desert
Driving with frequent use of brakes
Frequent driving in water

Unscheduled Maintenance

Some vehicle parts don’t need regular maintenance. But if something does fail, it could affect the engine or the vehicle’s performance. These items should be inspected or adjusted if you see there is a problem.

MAINTENANCE TIPS

General maintenance is easy. Anyone can do it.

You don’t need to know much about cars to give your Nissan a quick makeover. Just follow these easy steps.

Start with fuel and oil

First, check your Owner’s Manual to see if you’re using the correct fuel (Diesel/Petrol). Avoid running to close to empty. Petrol impurities and sediments can collect at the bottom of your tank and can later cause problems. Also make sure you check the oil regularly. Drive with low oil and you can really hurt your engine.

You should check the following regularly to help your Nissan perform to the best of its ability:

Get under the bonnet

Check engine oil level
Check engine coolant level and power steering fluid level
Check fluid levels: oil, coolant, brake fluid, power steering fluid
Check automatic transmission fluid level after putting your vehicle in ‘Park’ with the engine idling
Radiator external for dirt, insects or leaves that may have accumulated
Check hoses for cracks, deformations or loose connections that could lead to overheating
Check engine drive-belts for cracks, fraying, wearing or oil contamination

Give your interior some love

Check the seat belt webbing for wear or damage
Make sure all gauges and indicator lights are functioning – fuel, oil, temperature and battery
Check brakes for smooth operation, including the hand brake. The pedal should be firm and the vehicle shouldn’t pull to one side when stopping
Check for steering-wheel vibration, stiff steering or strange noises. If your vehicle pulls to one side, come see us to have your tyres and alignment checked
The accelerator pedal should not catch or require uneven effort. Keep the floor mats away from the pedal
Check to see if your wipers and washer are working, and they don’t streak the glass
Make sure heating, air conditioning and defroster are functioning properly
Check horn operation
Check operation, alignment and condition of mirrors
Check clutch operation

Look at the exterior

General vehicle appearance and condition
Check paint condition and any corrosion
Check the tyres (including spare tyre) to see if any appear to be low on air, cracked, worn or punctured by nails, metal, glass etc.
Check for missing or loose wheel nuts
Make sure headlights, brake lights, tail-lights and turn signals operate properly
Check headlight aim according to the aiming instructions in your Nissan Owner’s Manual
Check windshield wiper blades for cracks or wear
Look underneath the vehicle for a low-hanging muffler or anything that looks abnormal
Look for fluid leaks
Check the condition of the exhaust system. If the exhaust sounds unusual or if you smell exhaust fumes, roll down the windows and take the vehicle to us immediately

Most of all, be careful
