Servicing the Car
Hi all,
I have a 2001 Infiniti I30T. I purchased it at 34,800 miles last year. I do not know if the previous owner had done any service with the automatic transmission fluid, or the radiator/coolant flush. I will assume the previous ownder did not do those services. The car now has close to 50,000 miles. I don't push the car too hard typically, and drive 75% highway, 25% city. I live in NY, so we have 4 seasons a year. I change oil every 3,000, and rotate tires every 5,000. Other than that, I haven't put much service into the car (did change struts, add new wheels/tires, but those are more "modding").
Question: Should I be concerned about servicing the ATF? What is the typical service interval for our cars? I want to prevent problems with the engine in the future. If you guys think I should, I'll probably bring it in tomorrow morning to get the ATF changed/flushed/serviced (whatever it needs, I'm clueless about ATF stuff). Also how about the coolant? What other things should I be servicing at around 50,000 miles?
