Transmission fluid matters
Many Nissans use a CVT (continuously variable transmission), and its fluid ages with mileage like any other. Fluid service on the schedule in your owner’s manual is cheap insurance; our fluids flush page explains why each fluid matters.
Warning lights
If the check engine light comes on, get it read soon rather than waiting — see flashing vs. solid. We use manufacturer-specific scan tools to find the actual cause.
Trucks and SUVs
The Frontier and Pathfinder see their share of towing and back roads, which wears brakes and alignment faster. Brake inspection and alignment testing are both free.
Neal’s Garage is at 1907 West Markham Avenue in Durham, right off Ninth Street, open Monday to Friday from 8:00 AM to 5:30 PM. Call 919-286-1167 or schedule an appointment.
