CHASSIS AND BODY MAINTENANCE
Brake lines and cables:
Visually inspect for proper installation. Check for
chafing, cracks, deterioration, and signs of
leaking. Replace any deteriorated or damaged
parts immediately.
Brake pads and rotors:
Check for wear, deterioration and fluid leaks.
Replace any deteriorated or damaged parts
immediately.
Exhaust system:
Visually inspect the exhaust pipes, muffler and
hangers for leaks, cracks, deterioration, and
damage. Tighten connections or replace parts
as necessary.
In-cabin microfilter:
Replace at specified intervals. When driving for
prolonged periods in dusty conditions, replace
the filter more frequently.
Propeller shaft(s):
Check for damage, looseness, and grease
leakage. (AWD)
Steering gear and linkage, axle and sus-
pension parts, drive shaft boots:
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
(8,000 km) according to the instructions under
“Explanation of general maintenance items”
(P.9-2) . When rotating tires, check for damage
and uneven wear. Replace if necessary.
Transmission fluid/oil, differential oil and
transfer case oil:
Visually inspect for signs of leakage at specified
intervals.
If using a car-top carrier, or driving on rough or
muddy roads:
.Replace the Manual Transmission gear oil
every 20,000 miles (32,000 km) or 24
months.
.Replace the CVT fluid every 60,000 miles
(96,000 km) or request the dealer to inspect
the fluid deterioration data using a CON-
SULT. If the deterioration data is more than
210,000, replace the CVT fluid.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.

tions”(P.9-13) .
(1) If using a car-top carrier, or driving onrough or muddy roads, inspect CVT fluid
deterioration at NISSAN dealer every
60,000 miles (96,000 km) , then change
CVT fluid if necessary. And if the inspec-
tion is not performed, change (not just
inspect) CVT fluid every 60,000 miles
(96,000 km) .(2) If using a car-top carrier, or driving on
rough or muddy roads, change (not just

km) or 24 months.
(3) Refer to“Tire rotation”under“General
maintenance”(P.9-2) .

The maintenance intervals shown on the pre-
ceding pages are for normal operating condi-
tions. If the vehicle is mainly operated under
severe driving conditions as shown below, more
frequent maintenance must be performed on the
following items as shown in the table.
