Let Dartmouth Nissan walk you through the essential maintenance items for your Nissan Rogue!
Regular Oil Changes
 The Nissan Rogue will keep track of your oil changes for you with the oil control system. This will monitor the condition of the engine oil and filter, and warn you when it's time for a change. This is especially helpful as the frequency of oil changes can vary depending on your driving conditions and style.
If you find yourself driving in severe conditions, like those listed below, your vehicle is likely to need an oil change more often.
Severe conditions are:
- Frequently driving short trips of 5 miles or less
- Driving trips of less than 10 miles in below-freezing temperatures
- Driving in stop-and-go traffic in hot weather
- Leaving your car to idle often
- Driving at a low speed for long distances
- Towing
Aside from your oil changes, there are a few maintenance items you should make sure to handle at the right intervals.
Every 6 Months or 5,000 Miles
All drivers should make sure to get their tires rotated every six months. This will ensure that your tires get worn evenly, so you can get the most out of each one.
Those who need extensive maintenance should also get these systems inspected:
- Brake pads and rotors
- Exhaust system
- Drive shaft boots
- Steering gear and linage
- Axle and suspension parts
An expert technician can quickly check each of these parts for signs of wear and damage that might indicate you need them replaced. If everything looks good, then you're ready to drive for another few months.
Every Year or 10,000 Miles
 While you should be able to count on the oil control system to alert you to your required oil change, it's recommended to change the oil and filter annually. Additionally, you should have these parts inspected:
- Brake lines
- Brake pads and rotor
- CVT fluid
- Drive shaft boots
It's ideal to have a technician keep a close eye on the thickness of your brake pads. Once these get too worn down, they'll stop being effective at their job and can damage the rotors.
Every 18 Months or 15,000 Miles
When you hit the 18-month mark, you should schedule your regular inspections and tire rotation. This is also a good time to check the battery in your Intelligent Key to see if it needs to be replaced.
Finally, you need to replace the in-cabin microfilter, as this will ensure you have good air quality in the cabin.
