Brake rotors, pads, and fluid. Upgrade fluid to Motul RBF600.

Coolant, power steering, and differential (if Sport model) fluids. Upgrade to Redline ATF D6 for power steering and Redline 75W90 for differential.

Air intake filters

In-cabin air filter

Wiper blades

Battery

Belts

Tires (I am especially interested to see pics of the OEM tires with 146K miles lol :icon17:)



Also, make sure whoever does the AT work has done it before - it is a very specific procedure and although it is simple, it is easy to screw up. Only use Nissan S Matic Fluid for the 7AT.

Dude... I use royal purple for freaking everything (engine oil, differential, transmission, coolant add on, fuel cleaner etc.) I'm starting to think maybe it's not a good idea to use that... Is it?

Hi everyone

I now have a 2011 AT 370z with 146k miles on it. It's basically had no maintenance ever done to it besides changing the oil when needed. I have a couple of questions for the people that know or gone through these things. What do you guys think the first things I should do it?

Things I think I should replace
-air filter
-spark plugs
-trans fluid, but I've been reading that you never need to do it idk I think I going to anyways

What other things or fluids you guys think I should change?

lol my '12 is a little higher than yours and that's including my east-coast road trip!

honestly reassuring knowing these cars can go so far and hold up so well for such an extended period of time with very basic maintanence :tiphat:

Differential fluid and yes do the tranny fluid too you'll feel a great difference, I just did mine on both @ 90k miles 2010 370z and she runs far smoother now.

Also do a coolant flush, Prestone sells a liquid that cleans out the entire system before you do the flush just run it for like 2 days in your car and presto, swap the coolant fluid.

Check the integrity of your bands.
Brakes, tires, suspension... Maybe the hosing should be considered too. Make sure the oil you use is like 1 level thicker than the recommended due the wear on the Pistons... That's all I can think of...

Royal Purple is fine. It seems to be less popular with the import crowd, but it's perfectly fine.

I use Mobil 1 engine oil (cause $25/5qts at Walmart)
I use Motul RBF600 for brake fluid (because value of price point vs dry boiling temp)
I use Redline most everything else (because that's what people recommend on here).

I've been considering RBF600 but I've heard it draws moisture like a mother so you have to flush it out twice a year, minimum. Any truth to this?
