This blog will be helpful for you if…
- You are looking to learn a little more about DIY maintenance for your vehicle
- You are looking to do a little spring maintenance and change your vehicle’s filters
- Want to know the difference between Cabin Air Filters and Engine Air Filters
- You want to know when is the right time to change your filters
Two Types Of Filters:
Cabin Air Filter: Usually the cabin air filter is located right in your glove compartment or beneath your dashboard. This will need to be replaced regularly to avoid polluted air from coming into your vehicle, and more importantly, being breathed in by you.
Engine Air Filter: The engine air filter prevents dust, dirt, debris, etc from getting into your engine, which could cause serious damage if that were to happen.
How Often Should They Be Changed?
Knowing when to change your air filter is important to you and your vehicle’s health! It is important to check your owner’s manual for this answer because every car is different, but the rule of thumb is to change after every 12,00-15,000 miles. But it is suggested to change them after pollen season so that allergens are pushed into your cabin once the filter starts to deteriorate.
Now that you have all the information you need to do some DIY work with your air filters, be sure to have your owner’s manual nearby for any questions that might surface. Of course, if you run into an issue or decide that you need some help, our team is always ready to step in and service your Nissan! Just schedule a test drive and stop into Destination Nissan for all of our service needs!

Each dealership’s PowerScore will be calculated using a Bayesian algorithm that considers the dealership’s average DealerRater star rating as well as the total number of reviews written about the dealership during that calendar year.
To be considered for the Dealer of the Year Awards a dealership must have:
- Minimum of 25 reviews on DealerRater for the calendar year
- Average minimum star rating of 4.0 on DealerRater, with 5.0 as the highest possible rating
- At least one review on DealerRater per quarter during the calendar year
- Must not have been blacklisted within the calendar year

Happy New Year! If you want to get on the resolution train, but not sure where you should start? Then you’ve stumbled on to the right blog! This week, your friends here at Destination Nissan want to help you start a resolution to be a better car owner. We know you love your beloved vehicle, but we are all guilty of pushing off maintenance or even keeping our vehicles clean. But since it’s a new year, it’s time to be a new you! See a handful of resolutions you can keep in mind this year and help yourself become a better car owner!
- Don’t Neglect Car Maintenance
- If you didn’t keep up with your regular car maintenance in 2019, your first new year’s resolution should be to call your mechanic! Yes, I know keeping up with car maintenance can be a pain, but when you don’t keep up with it bigger problems can arise. And it isn’t cheap.
- Schedule a service appointment today or stop into Destination Nissan today for your service needs!
- Learn To Do Basic Maintenance Yourself
- 2020 is the year of DIY and if you’re tired scheduling maintenance and spending money on service, there is no better time than now to make it a new year’s resolution to learn how to do it yourself!
- Start with something small, like learning to replace your windshield wipers. It usually needs to be done twice a year and is important for road safety. It’s an easy goal for the new year to accomplish quickly.
- End Distracted Driving
- According to the DMV, on average 9 people are killed by distracted driving every day. Most people think that distracted driving means texting and driving but it actually refers to anything that can take your full attention away from the road. This includes reaching for something, changing the music, using an app, checking your GPS or map, taking a photo, checking email or posting to social media, eating and drinking, and even putting on makeup/grooming
- Make this resolution to drive less distracted to keep you and others on the road safer.
- Keep Your Car Clean
- For some of you keeping your car clean comes naturally, but for the rest of us, it is a daily challenge. If your car is a mess going into the new year learn how to declutter your car and prevent future clutter.
- First, remove everything from your car that you do not need.
- Second, organize those important papers in your car and rid of the papers you don’t need. Throw out old receipts, coupons, and other miscellaneous papers. Then find the important documents like your registration, insurance, and owner’s manual and put them in a safe spot.
- Third, give your car a deep clean after you’ve decluttered it. Vacuum the seats and floor, wipe down windows, and take it through a car wash.
Did you know that the end of the year is the best time to score HUGE SAVINGS at a car dealership? That means there is no better time than right now to stop into Destination to find your dream Nissan for less! Stop in and shop the Nissan Year End Sales Event and score limited-time savings that you can only get now! Oh, and did we mention that isn’t the only perk of shopping with us right now? Check out the 5 reasons it is best to shop NOW for a new Nissan. Then stop into Destination Nissan and score huge offers, it’s that easy!
New models: We have new models coming in every week and limited space which means we need to sell 2019 models for the new year models coming in. September, October, November, and December are the months that manufacturers are typically trying to make room for new models on dealer lots. Come December, prices will hit a low for the year. For a buyer, these factors work in your favor to save money.
Holiday Shopping: Yeah we know, thinking of buying a car during the most expensive holiday season might sound crazy, but during the holiday season cars continuously lower in price. This is where Black Friday sales have kicked in, as well as low prices in December.
Holiday Bonuses: More than half of Americans will receive a monetary end-of-year bonus. With a little extra cash coming in, it might be time to say goodbye to your old ride and hello to a new reliable one.
Smooth Commuting: There might be a sense of worry about whether your older vehicle can make it through another tough winter. If you worry about commuting in the winter weather, year after year, it might be time to stop in and get yourself a reliable vehicle that can get you through the weather.
Having the upper hand: When traffic is down at a dealership, salespeople can usually take more time to explain in-depth about a car you are interested in, show you similar models, review features, safety concerns and more. You might also have the upper hand due to a lack of customers and win an unbeatable deal!
