NISSAN ARMADA 2017 2.G Owners Manual

9-6Maintenance and schedules
Exhaust system:
Visually inspect the exhaust pipes, muffler and
hangers for leaks, cracks, deterioration, and
damage. Tighten connections or replace parts
as necessary.
Propeller shaft(s):
Check for damage, looseness, and grease
leakage.
In-cabin microfilter:
Replace at specified intervals. When driving for
prolonged periods in dusty conditions, replace
the filter more frequently.
Steering gear and linkage, axle and sus-
pension parts:
Check for damage, looseness, and leakage of oil
or grease. Under severe driving conditions,
inspect more frequently.
Tire rotation:
Tires should be rotated every 5,000 miles
(8,000km) . When rotating tires, check for
damage and uneven wear. Replace if necessary.
Transmission fluid/oil, differential oil:
Visually inspect for signs of leakage at specified
intervals.Off-road maintenance:
Check the following items frequently whenever
you drive off-road through deep sand, mud or
water:
.
Brake pads and rotors
. Brake linings and drums
. Brake lines and hoses
. Differential, transmission and transfer case
oil
. Steering linkage
. Propeller shaft(s) and front drive shafts
. Engine air filter
. Clutch housing drain (AWD only) To help ensure smooth, safe and economical
driving, NISSAN provides two maintenance
schedules that may be used, depending upon
the conditions in which you usually drive. These
schedules contain both distance and time
intervals, up to 120,000 miles (192,000 km)/
144 months. For most people, the odometer
reading will indicate when service is needed.
However, if you drive very little, your vehicle
should be serviced at the regular time intervals
shown in the schedule.
After 120,000 miles (192,000 km)/144
months, continue maintenance at the
same mileage/time intervals.
ADDITIONAL MAINTENANCE ITEMS
FOR SEVERE OPERATING CONDI-
TIONS
Additional maintenance items for severe
operating conditions;
should be performed
on vehicles that are driven under especially
demanding conditions. Additional maintenance
items should be performed if you primarily
operate your vehicle under the following condi-
tions:
. Repeated short trips of less than 5 miles (8
km) .
. Repeated short trips of less than 10 miles
(16 km) with outside temperatures remain-
ing below freezing.
MAINTENANCE SCHEDULES

.Operating in hot weather in stop-and-go
“rush hour” traffic.
. Extensive idling and/or low speed driving for
long distances, such as police, taxi or door-
to-door delivery use.
. Driving in dusty conditions.
. Driving on rough, muddy or salt spread
roads.
. Towing a trailer, or using a camper or car-
top carrier.
NOTE:
For vehicles operated in Canada, both
standard and severe maintenance items
should be performed at every interval. The following tables show the standard main-
tenance schedule. Depending upon weather
and atmospheric conditions, varying road sur-
faces, individual driving habits and vehicle
usage, additional or more frequent maintenance
may be required.
After 120,000 miles (192,000 km)/144
months, continue maintenance at the
same mileage/time intervals.

NOTE:
(1) After 40,000 miles (64,000 km) or 48
months, inspect every 10,000 miles (16,000
km) or 12 months. Replace the drive belts
if found damaged.
(2) If operating mainly in dusty conditions,
more frequent maintenance may be re-
quired.
(3) Periodic maintenance is not required.
(4) First replacement interval is 105,000 miles (168,000 km) or 84 months. After first
replacement, replace every 75,000 miles
(120,000 km) or 60 months.
(5) Use only Genuine NISSAN Long Life
Antifreeze/Coolant (blue) or equivalent
with proper mixture ratio of 50% anti-
freeze and 50% demineralized or distilled
water. Mixing any other type of coolant or
the use of non-distilled water may reduce
the life expectancy of the factory fill cool-
ant.
(6) Replace spark plug when the plug gap
exceeds 0.053 in (1.35 mm) even if within
specified replacement mileage.
(7) Periodic maintenance is not required.
However, if valve noise increases, inspect
valve clearance.
