Just changed the oil, oil filter and air filter this past weekend and noticed that the Maxima runs better. Air filter wasn't drastically dirty, could still see some light through it. Any ideas??

 

First off...you're doing general maintenance. When was your last oil change....

Second....ideas on what...?

 

Here's an idea; next time put up a more meaningful thread, this is general stuff

 

What oil did you use? When (mileage wise) did you change it? What did you replace it with?

I noticed a little more response when I'm using better oils......

 

It's called the Plaa-Cee-Boooooo effect!

Happens every time we do maintenance on our cars.

You should see/feel what happens when you put MAXIMA.ORG stickers on the windows...

 

 

how is that funny? stickers add 20 hp.

 

17whp and 20 ft/lbs for me!!

 

Put gas in my car and the low fuel light went off.... any ideas???????

 

WOWW, let's put that in the stickies .

I thought this forum was to help fellow Maxima owners, no matter how trivial the question may be. Ok, I'll admit that the thread is a little trivial, but out of all the vehicles I've worked on, I never had a car that showed a little improvement from just changing the oil and air filter. I was thinking that the MAF was getting better airflow due to the new air filter, but like I said, the old filter wasn't that dirty. I've experienced performance improvements when changing plugs, cap/rotor and points(back in the day).

 

Yo man dont sweat it, jus keep doing you routine maintenance and u be good.


gotta admit this funny shyt
