2014 Maxima & former Audi A6 owner
Hi!
I just purchased a 2014 Maxima w/42k miles.
It's replacing my 2006 Audi A6 3.2 w/214 miles.
I'm hoping to get as many miles out of the Maxima.
My home is New Jersey, from the mountains, to the beaches, residences is in Cedarbrook right now, about 15 miles east of Philly.
I'll be doing minor upgrades to the Maxima suspension to improve handling & responsiveness, as I do to all my cars.
The Audi was easy. It just took some front strut & rear sway bar upgrades to rid the understeer & get it quicker responding, along with putting the Continental DWS-06's on it.
So, I'll be doing things along those lines as I sort out the maxima to be my year round daily driver & highway jet. Fortunately, the PO bad just put on a set of Goodyear RSA's. Not my 1st choice, but pretty good.
Since I do all my own repairs & maintenance, I'll be doing some fluids change outs in the short run, especially the cvt fluid. What's the best fluid for that?
The Audi's trans was classified as a "lifetime" fill, but I did it ever two years(30-40k miles), with $$$ ZF fluid.
Anyway, I'm glad to be here for the long haul, looking to share & exchange everyone's good guidance.
