What Is Included in a Nissan Service?

Your Nissan’s servicing requirements depend on its model, engine, age, mileage and maintenance history. We use your registration details to identify the correct service requirements, parts and fluids for your vehicle.

Depending on the service that is due, our technicians may check or replace:

1. Engine oil and oil filter

2. Air filter

3. Cabin or pollen filter

4. Fuel filter where applicable

5. Spark plugs on applicable petrol engines

6. Brake fluid

7. Coolant level and condition

8. Brake pads and discs

9. Tyres and tyre pressures

10. Steering and suspension components

11. Exterior lights

12. Windscreen wipers and washers

13. Battery and charging system

14. Drive belts

15. Visible fluid leaks

We can also complete a diagnostic system scan, reset the service indicator and road-test the vehicle where appropriate.

After the inspection, we will explain any problems we find. We will not carry out additional repair work without discussing it with you first.

The right service for your Nissan

Not every Nissan requires the same maintenance. The correct service may depend on:

1. How many miles the vehicle has covered

2. When it was last serviced

3. Whether it is petrol, diesel, hybrid or electric

4. The type of gearbox fitted

5. Whether it is mainly driven on short or long journeys

6. Any warning messages displayed

7. The vehicle’s previous maintenance history

Customers should provide the registration number, current mileage and details of any warning lights when requesting a quotation.

Nissan dashboard warning lights

A warning light means the vehicle has detected a problem, but it does not always identify the part that needs replacing.

Our technicians use diagnostic equipment and further testing to investigate the cause. This helps reduce the risk of replacing parts unnecessarily.

1. Engine-management warning

2. ABS or brake warning

3. Airbag warning

4. Battery or charging warning

5. DPF warning

6. AdBlue warning

7. Automatic gearbox warning

8. Key-not-recognised message

9. Driver-assistance system warning

If a red warning appears or the vehicle becomes unsafe to drive, stop somewhere safe and seek professional advice.

Nissan automatic and Xtronic gearboxes

Some Nissan models use an Xtronic continuously variable transmission, often called a CVT. Other models use different automatic, dual-clutch or conventional transmissions.

Contact A1 Diagnostics if you notice:

1. Juddering

2. Hesitation

3. Delayed drive engagement

4. Unusual gearbox noise

5. Irregular acceleration

6. A gearbox warning light

7. Reduced performance

The correct fluid and servicing procedure depend on the gearbox fitted. Changing the fluid will not repair every gearbox problem, so diagnosis may be needed before servicing or repairs are recommended.
