Everything from the racing-inspired heated steering wheel to the quilted leather or Alcantara seats will make you glad that you chose to buy a Maxima.

If you are driving along on the road and you notice that there is some louder than normal sounds coming from the underside of your vehicle, then you may have an issue within your exhaust or muffler system. Typically, this issue is caused by normal and regular wear and tear on your vehicle but you may have also hit something on the road or ran over something that caused damage to your vehicle.

Aside from a loud engine-like sound coming from your vehicle, you may also notice that there is some condensation or fluid leaking from your exhaust pipe or…

If your engine begins to make a pinging or rattling sound, it could be a sign of overheating. Another sign is a decrease in gas mileage.

When an engine overheats, the pistons are not cooled properly. The hot pistons expand and damage the cylinders. Also, the head gasket may blow. An engine that overheats can cause severe damage to a car.

Motors have cooling systems that work with coolant, hoses, and pumps to keep the engine around 195 to 220 degrees. When any of the cooling components break or become clogged, your engine will begin to get hot...

There are many differences between 2-wheel drive, all-wheel drive, and 4-wheel drive vehicles. One of the biggest differences is obviously going to be the transmission. Not only is that because of how it functions, but a true 4-wheel drive will have a transfer case which would be absent on a 2-wheel drive or all-wheel drive vehicle.

When the driver switches to 4-wheel drive, the transfer case will engage and then send power to both the front differential and the rear differential, providing power to all 4 wheels. This is what gives you that 4-wheel drive capability that is lacking in…

Carrying out a maintenance service on your transmission is mostly associated with changing the transmission fluid. However, there are other problems that could have caused a problem in your car.

When your car needs a new transmission filter, you will need to do that by first removing the transmission pan. Once that is out of the way, you can now look into removing the old transmission filter then replacing it with the new one. During this process, you can also remove the gasket material then replace it with a new one before reinstalling the transmission pan.

Is your vehicle providing you a jolt as it changes gears? Is your engine revving higher than normal during these changes as well? If so, it’s time to service your vehicle’s transmission. Specialized fluid is the guardian of all parts of your transmission. It provides lubrication, temperature protection, and smooth gear operations.

However, this fluid does break down over time and cause transmission parts to work harder and wear down faster. Most vehicles require fluid to be changed every 30,000 – 60,000 miles. If the recommended schedule isn’t followed...

When the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund reported that over 150 officers had lost their lives as a result of motorists not obeying the Move Over laws in their state, a bigger issue was discovered. Although all 50 states have a Move Over law in the books, it is shocking how few drivers even know what that law entails.
