Nissan vehicles have a very reliable radiator and engine cooling system. But even the most durable of cars can eventually run into radiator problems, especially without proper maintenance. If your radiator begins to malfunction, your coolant will stop doing its job and your engine will start to overheat. You might sometimes be able to fix radiator issues yourself, but you'll usually need to visit your local Nissan dealer for professional radiator repair. more Signs of Radiator Trouble If your radiator is failing, you're likely to notice signs of your engine overheating. The engine temperature gauge on your dashboard will begin to steadily rise, even under ordinary driving conditions. In addition, your hood will become hot to touch, you'll hear pinging or knocking sounds from the engine, and you might even see smoke or steam coming from under the hood. Keep an Eye on Your Coolant Other indicators of radiator problems become apparent in your coolant fluid. If your ordinarily green or blue coolant has turned a rusty brown or oily color, then you most likely have a build-up of sludge inside your radiator, which is contaminating the coolant. If you notice coolant pooling under your vehicle or your coolant level is persistently and inexplicably falling, then you probably have a leak. Most coolant leaks originate somewhere in the radiator or its hoses. Fixing Your Own Radiator If you're handy with tools and know your way around a car engine, then you might be able to repair your own radiator. If you identify the source of a leak, you may be able to solder the hole to fix it. And if you find a patch of new rust, you should be able to clean it away with a proper cleaning product, as long as the rust hasn't yet begun to cause structural damage. Changing Your Radiator If your radiator is so damaged that it's easier to replace than repair, then it's probably best to have a trusted technician carry out the task. Again, if you're experienced and confident enough with under-the-hood work, you can try to replace it yourself, provided you can find a radiator of just the right size and shape. Taking It to Your Local Nissan Dealer Given how crucial your radiator is to the health of your engine, it's usually worth taking any radiator problems to a professional at your local dealership. They'll likely be the first to identify radiator problems anyway when they check your coolant during your regular car inspections. To thoroughly examine a radiator, a technician must inspect and pressure test the whole cooling system. They'll examine and test your thermostat, fan, radiator cap, hoses, connections, and every other component. They'll then fix any problems they find with the right tools, parts, and know-how. For prompt radiator repair by experienced professionals, pay a visit to Ed Martin Nissan. We're a trusted local dealership that provides a one-stop shop to the region's Nissan drivers with consistently outstanding value and customer service. image courtesy of pexels.com

Nissan vehicles are stylish, reliable, and safe. However, as with any other vehicle, you must perform regular maintenance on it to keep it running at its very best. Brakes are just one thing that can wear down over time and will eventually need replacing. So, it's important to know the signs to look for that tell you it's time to head to your Nissan dealer for a brake repair. 6 Common Signs Your Nissan Could Use a Brake Repair more 1. Your Brakes Aren't Working Like They Usually Do Anytime you notice a difference in how your brakes work get them checked immediately. This can mean that you need to press your brakes harder to come to a stop, or your car takes longer to start slowing down when you apply your brakes. Your brake pads are likely worn down and they should be changed before they create more issues. 2. Your Brake Pedal Feels Different When You Push It If your brake pedal feels softer or spongier when you push it this can mean that brake fluid is leaking within your braking system or that your brake pads are worn down too far. Either way, it's important to get your vehicle checked out immediately. 3. Your Brakes Make Noise When You Use Them Hearing a squealing or grinding noise when you apply your brakes means they need attention as soon as possible.

Your Brakes Smell When You Use Them If you notice an occasional burning smell coming from your brakes when you've been driving slowly down a large hill or stuck in traffic, this simply means they're overheated. Pull over until they cool down. However, if you notice this burning smell coming from your brakes often, especially if you're not in a situation where your brakes may be overheated, get them checked out immediately. 5. Your Brake Warning Light Is On Your vehicle is designed to warn you of any issues that come up. If your brake warning light comes up or if you have a newer model and get an email or text notification for brake service, this means you need to act as soon as possible before there's more damage. 6.
