Can you believe this Saturday marks the beginning of spring? Well, that can only mean one thing, the time to service your Nissan is officially here! URGH, I know service is not always fun, but at Loughead Nissan, we offer a fast, simple, and convenient experience. Plus, last week we told you about our March service specials, which means it’s time to SAVE while you service! If you missed out on last week’s blog, no biggie, just head over to our site and check out our blog section, or just head over to our service specials page and you can view and print out whichever service works best for you. So, don’t let your ride take a backseat this spring, and check out our service checklist below! Be sure to check off all the boxes to make sure your ride is ready to keep the good times rolling! If there is any maintenance below that you don’t feel you can complete yourself, be sure to print out one of our service coupons and head into Loughead Nissan today! 

Car Care Tips For Spring: 

  • Check those fluid levels, all of them! From engine oil, power steering, brake, and transmission fluids…oh and don’t forget the windshield wiper fluid and antifreeze/coolant! 
  • Take a peek at your hoses and belts to make use they haven’t been cracked due to cold weather and wear and tear. 
  • Check your battery to make sure the connection is clean, tight, and corrosion-free. 
  • Make sure to get your ride an oil change and have the brake linings, rotors, and drums inspected. 
  • Often overlooked, but important; be sure to check your exhaust system for leaks and damaged or broken supports or hangers if there is an unusual noise.
  • Tune it up with a tune-up to help the engine deliver the best balance of power and fuel economy 
  • Check the heating, ventilating, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems, as proper heating and cooling performance is critical for safety reasons and interior comfort in the spring/summer months
  •  Inspect the steering and suspension system 
  • Check your tire pressure and tread depth to see if it’s time for a new set. Also keep an eye out for uneven tread wear, which indicates that your vehicle needs a wheel alignment. 
  •  Check the wipers and lighting so that you can see and be seen
