I have 2004 SE with 124K miles and was thinking to do a tune up when the weather gets nicer here in Chicago. Here are some things I am thinking of changing
1. spark plugs
2. seafoam the car before changing the oil
3. power steering flush
4. fuel filter

the trans oil is good cause the 5speed auto got rebuilt recently. Air filter is in good shape.

any more things I should look into?

 

All sounds good, but I don't think you can change the fuel filter. I beleive it doesn't require any maintenance.

 

how them brakes?

 

The brakes are good so far I am not sure if they were changed by the previous owner or what but yea they are in good shape. Should I look into engine mounts ?

 

you can do a visual check on em and even do the Motor Mount Inserts option.

 

sorry op but i have a question to anybody that can help me. how do i align my headlights on my max, its an 04 sl with stock hids? ive tried seaching stickies and such but cant find anything. thanks everyone.

maybe the drive belts might need changin'

 

Alright guys thanks for the info.

 

Can anymone tell me what to do for a tune up. How do i get the spark plugs in the back on my 04 maxima? Please HELP.

 

All of the above, plus changing out the radiator hoses or at least inspect the hoses and check your engine mounts.

 

In cabin filter. Check all belts. Plugs for sure.

 

Its a bitXh to get to the rear plugs. I paid someone to do it for me.

Same here with the rear 3 plugs. I either did not have the tools, my hands are too big or I did not have the patience. Too painful to change, so I paid the stealership...
