Regularly scheduled maintenance protects you against unnecessary repair bills. All components wear out in time, reducing your Nissan’s efficiency and fuel economy. In addition, worn parts can cause additional problems that will need repair. Nissan maintenance eliminates these problems and extends your vehicle’s life. As your Nissan dealer, we want to tell you about some of the types of maintenance we offer.
Transmission Service
The transmission is one of the hardest working systems in your vehicle. It takes energy the engine produces and directs it to the wheels to allow them to move at the desired speed. It’s protected against external damage by a tough, robust casing, but its internal components will age and wear out. Transmission components depend on friction to work effectively, contributing to wear and tear.
We can service your transmission to keep it in great shape. This allows our technicians to test and check all its components and replace any damaged ones. Potential leak sites, like the transmission pan gasket, will be examined, and seals or gaskets replaced if needed to prevent a leak. Transmission fluid is drained and replaced, as new fluid is more efficient at providing the hydraulic power to shift the gears.
Battery Testing and Replacement
The average life of a car battery is three to five years. The short lifespan is due to the natural breakdown of the chemicals that allow the battery to store and supply electricity. As the chemicals break down, electricity storage capacity is lost. Eventually, the battery can’t store enough power to start the engine. In addition, battery life can be reduced by extreme temperatures or other issues in the engine, like a worn alternator.
We test your battery by connecting it to our computerized battery tester. This machine subjects the battery to various stress tests to identify its remaining storage capacity and potential weaknesses. Regularly scheduled battery testing, starting from a battery’s third year, can prevent the dreaded dead battery situation. If your battery is weakening, we’ll install a new one for you.
Coolant Replacement
Coolant is a mixture of water and antifreeze, and it helps regulate your engine temperature. Combustion produces large amounts of heat, and excessive temperature levels will damage sensitive engine components. Coolant is pumped through the engine, absorbing heat as it moves and transporting it to the radiator for removal by heat exchange.
As time passes, coolant becomes less effective at heat absorption, increasing engine temperature, and causing overheating. We prevent this problem by changing the coolant, and your engine’s operating temperature will return to normal.
