How Often Should I Change My Car's Oil?

Several elements factor into your decision here. Most manufacturers recommend an interval of 7,500 miles or more between oil changes, up to 10,000 miles, or as intermittently as every 15,000 miles. Why so variable? The needs of a vehicle are often dependent upon manufacturer moniker and engine type. The best way to decide if your oil requires replacement is to consult your owner's manual or your automaker's maintenance schedule.

When Do I Need New Tires?

Usually, if you have less than 2/32 inches of tread depth remaining, or your wheels have seen 10 years of use, it's a good idea to get a new set installed. But if you notice significant loss of tread or damage from elemental exposure, it's a good idea to consult the tire replacement schedule in your owner's manual or bring your car in to see us here at Lithia Nissan of Fresno for an inspection.

My Brakes Squeak; Do I Need a Repair?

Reduced responsiveness, pulling to one side, a grinding or growling noise, a vibrating brake pedal - each, or all, of these may indicate brake or rotor problems. But a good way to determine if you need a repair or replacement is to take a look at your vehicle's brake pads. Is there less than 1/4 inches of brake padding left? Is normal brake rotor rust remaining with brake activation, leading to that tell-tale noise when you depress the brake pedal? If so, a metal shim's failing condition may be causing the sound to persist, but it could be several other possibilities. Our Fresno Nissan service center will be happy to help you figure them out.
