Just rolled over 100K - what should I check/do?

[cwilliamsws6]

My 2014 Pathfinder rolled over 100K yesterday and I wanted to know what kind of preventative maintenance items I should do at this point.

I bought it in April of last year with 87K on it and at that time it had a brand new CVT put in before I bought it. I'm already planning to get the first CVT flush done around 120K.

I know that the spark plugs are supposed to be done at 105K so I plan to do that next oil change.

I also changed the rear diff and transfer case oil about 3,000 miles ago.

Is there anything else I should keep my eye on now that I'm in the "high mileage club" or am I doing good so far?

Tire pressure. Oil level. ATF level.
Your 401k. Cabin/Air filter.
Rust.
Deer crossing.

Tire pressure I do keep at 35 per the spec and I check the oil level once a week at least.

I'd check the ATF level if I could but there's no dipstick on the CVTs

It's actually in pretty good shape considering rust, a couple of spots on the undercarriage because it's an Ohio car but the worst area is the hitch receiver

It's got a K&N air filter but I've never changed the cabin filter so I probably should do that soon thanks for reminding me actually.

Coolant should about due.

Yes to the coolant and why not do a trans drain and filter? No flush, just a drain and new filter.

Its a brand new CVT and I'd like to keep my warranty should something come up with it

Time to trade it in and get a brand new one

I love the new 22 pathfinder they came out with but I don't have the money for that right now

I love my Pathfinder and the only thing is consider trading it in for would be an XTerra or older Frontier

Check ball joints, tie rod ends, upper/lower control arm bushings, sway bar bushings, CV axles etc. for any play/tears.

A towing hitch on a Nissan with a CVT is as 'bout as useful as... well, you get the idea.

A brake system flush and power steering fluid change would not be a bad idea.

 

[Nick1994]

Those CVTs are crap as you know, I'd change the fluid now. I agree with coolant too.

 

[CharBaby]

Don't have the CVT flushed. Drain & refill ONLY using factory method or YouTube.
You're on the right track for maintenance with all fluids.
Also check belts & hoses and any other wear out item.
Check the owner's manual if there is one. This will have a mileage guide section and what to check/replace.

It's good to see that you're on top of the maintenance,

If you live in an area with poorly maintained roads most of your front end suspension parts are getting due for replacement. Especially keep an eye on ball joints, it's very bad when they fail.

Radiator cooling fans are a failure point on them. Check for play or bearing noise in them.

They do have a ton of play and its already on my list of things to address in the near future.

Alignment. They should check the suspension during alighment.

Shocks? Replace with the yellow & blue and good for life.
