If you drive a Nissan Kicks, you want to ensure it continues to provide you with the driving experience you want. Staying current with your maintenance schedule is one of the best ways to protect your investment.

Our team here at Watermark Nissan of Marion can help keep your Nissan Kicks in tip-top shape as you navigate around Marion, Herrin, and Carbondale, IL. Learn more about the Nissan Kicks maintenance schedule below!


Benefits of Routine Maintenance

Keeping up with recommended service for your Nissan Kicks will help it continue delivering the best possible performance and efficiency. Certain parts of your vehicle will likely only need to be serviced or replaced after many miles of driving, while others, such as the engine, will need more frequent maintenance and tune-ups.

When you have the key components of your Nissan Kicks inspected periodically, you can quickly address anything that needs to be serviced, repaired, or replaced, which mitigates potential issues.


How to Follow Your Nissan Kicks Maintenance Schedule

You can find the complete Nissan Kicks maintenance schedule in your owner's manual. In general, you should schedule maintenance when you reach specific mileage intervals. However, if you drive very little, be sure to schedule service when you reach the time intervals indicated in your owner's manual. 

If you operate your vehicle in what are considered 'severe' conditions, you will need to service your Nissan more frequently. A few of these qualifying conditions include making repeated short trips, driving in stop-and-go traffic in high heat, using a top carrier, and more. In this case, follow the severe use maintenance schedule rather than the normal use one outlined below.


7,500 miles/6 months 

At this mileage or time marker, whichever comes first, you should ask your service technician to perform a battery test and inspections for the horn, lights, signals, wipers, and rear hatch, as well as:

  • All fluids 
  • Engine air filter
  • Suspension components
  • Tire pressure, treadwear, and depth
  • Engine drive belt and hose inspections

Along with these inspections, you will want to replace the engine oil and filter and schedule a tire rotation to promote even wear.


15,000 miles/12 months

When you reach this milestone, you will want to schedule a few more inspections for your Nissan Kicks, including for the engine air filter, suspension components, and:

  • Brake lines & cables
  • Brake pads & rotors
  • Drums & linings
  • Drive shaft boots
  • CVT fluid

You should also replace the in-cabin microfilter to keep the cabin filled with clean air.


30,000 miles/24 months

This mile marker calls for you to replace the brake fluid and engine air filter. Brake fluid is an important part of your brake system and is necessary to bring your vehicle to a stop, while the engine air filter helps protect your engine from dirt and debris.


45,000 miles/36 months

When you reach this point, replace your Intelligent Key battery. This will enable you to continue using its convenient features like starting the engine without inserting the key.


105,000 miles/84 months

At this point in your Nissan Kicks journey, you should replace both the spark plugs and engine coolant. This will ensure you can start your Nissan Kicks and keep each part of your engine cool and protected from overheating.
