damaged drive belts
Engine air filter*:
Replace at specified intervals. When driving for
prolonged periods in dusty conditions, check/
replace the filter more frequently.
Engine coolant*:
Replace coolant at the specified interval. When
adding or replacing coolant, be sure to use only
Genuine INFINITI Engine Coolant or equivalent
in its quality (BASF Glysantin® G40®). (For
additional information, refer toEngine cooling
systemin the9. Maintenance and Schedules
section.)NOTE
Mixing any other type of coolant or the use of
non-distilled water may reduce the recom-
mended service interval of the coolant.
Engine oil and oil filter:
Replace engine oil and oil filter at the specified
intervals. For recommended oil grade and vis-
cosity refer toRecommended fluids/lubricants
and capacitiesin the10. Technical informa-
tionsection.
Fuel filter:
Replace the fuel filter and drain the water at the
specified intervals.
Fuel lines*:
Check the fuel hoses, piping and connections
for leaks, looseness, or deterioration. Tighten
connections or replace parts as necessary.
Spark plugs:
Replace at specified intervals. Install new plugs
of the type as originally equipped.
CHASSIS AND BODY MAINTENANCE
Brake lines and cables:
Visually inspect for proper installation. Check
for chafing, cracks, deterioration, and signs of
leaking. Replace any deteriorated or damaged
parts immediately.
