Is your Nissan in need of transmission service? You may be able to tell by the way the vehicle is handling, or by spotting evidence of a transmission fluid leak. If you think there's a problem with your transmission, it's important to get it checked out right away. The transmission moves power from the engine to your wheels, making it an essential component. Learn how to recognize when it’s time for transmission service at your Nissan dealership. more 1. Your Vehicle Is Leaking Transmission Fluid If you spot puddles of transmission fluid beneath your parked vehicle, that's a sure sign that your transmission needs attention. Your vehicle has several types of fluid, including power steering fluid and motor oil, but transmission fluid is usually pink or red and has a sweet smell. Placing a clean piece of cardboard beneath your parked vehicle is a great way of getting a good look at the fluid your vehicle is leaking. You shouldn't drive with an active transmission fluid leak, so you'll want to get your vehicle in for service as soon as possible. 2. You Smell Burning The smell of burning plastic, smoke, or melting wires is another indicator of transmission trouble. This odor can indicate that your transmission is overheating or the transmission fluid is old and starting to burn. Our service department can change out the fluid to get your transmission back to optimal performance. 3. Your Gears Are Slipping The transmission serves as your vehicle's gearbox, so if your gears are slipping out of place while you're driving, that could be a sign of transmission trouble. You can tell your transmission has slipped if you notice the engine revving during a gear switch. This can lead to a sensation similar to what you would feel if you were sliding over ice with no traction. Gear slipping is also characterized by delayed acceleration, strange noises, and a rough response from the vehicle when you attempt to shift gears. It's dangerous to drive a vehicle that won't stay in gear, so you'll want to schedule a service appointment immediately. 4. Your Vehicle Grinds or Shakes If your vehicle grinds or shakes as the gears shift, particularly if you have an automatic transmission, it's an almost certain sign that you have transmission trouble. A vehicle that struggles to change gears is also likely experiencing transmission difficulties. Whether you need a transmission repair or simply need to have your fluids topped off, we can help. Don't put off maintenance for this crucial component. When you're ready to book your next service appointment, give us a call at Auffenberg Nissan in Shiloh, IL.

While a car is on the road, the ignition coil in each engine cylinder continually produces high-voltage surges of electricity for the spark plugs. If one of your coils suffers a fault, the corresponding spark plug will no longer be able to ignite the fuel inside the combustion chamber. This will result in various engine problems, and you'll notice the warning signs outlined below. Learn six signs of a faulty ignition coil before heading to your local Nissan dealer for repairs. more Engine Misfiring If your engine suddenly starts coughing and shaking, appearing to struggle to keep going, then at least one spark plug might be misfiring. This misfiring can result from a malfunctioning ignition coil failing to provide the necessary voltage. There are various other potential causes of misfiring; you may need a technician to diagnose the cause. Plummeting Power When a failing coil stops allowing the spark plug to fire the cylinder, your vehicle's engine will rapidly lose power. This will become most notable when you need to accelerate and find that you can't gain quite the same surge of speed as usual. Falling Gas Mileage While a bad coil might prevent the spark plug from firing, the fuel injector is still pumping fuel into the cylinder. This means your car will be guzzling more gas than usual, and you might find yourself stopping to refill the fuel tank more frequently. Trouble Starting When starting a car, the spark plugs need a strong and reliable supply of electricity. With one or more of your coils failing to provide this voltage, you might find it difficult to start the engine at all. The colder the weather and engine, the harder it will be to start. Loud Backfiring When a faulty coil causes misfiring, an excess of unburned fuel starts to collect inside the cylinder. This excess fuel rapidly builds up and can sometimes ignite all at once just as the valve is opening. This creates a loud bang known as backfiring. Check Engine Light With one or more faltering coils, it won't take long for the check engine light to appear on your dashboard. However, this warning light won't tell you specifically that a coil is malfunctioning. You'll probably need to have a technician run a diagnostic check to figure that out. Your Nissan Dealer Can Clean, Refurbish, or Replace a Faulty Coil Sometimes, a fouled coil can be cleaned and restored to its proper function. More seriously damaged coils can sometimes be repaired or refurbished. However, much of the time, a faulty coil simply needs to be replaced. In addition, many of the above symptoms could also be caused by other factors. A factory-certified technician at the dealership can diagnose the problem and offer the optimal solution for both your car's performance and your budget. Visit Auffenberg Nissan in Shiloh, IL today to have your engine's coils inspected and repaired. We're a local full-service dealership with a great range of new and pre-owned cars, and courteous, knowledgeable staff on hand to help resolve your car-related issues.
