What can I tow in a Infiniti?

Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how small it is. Defying your I30 towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system.

Does my I30's transmission fluid need to be inspected?

Maintaining your Infiniti I30 transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health. Some technicians would say that between 30,000 and 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your Infiniti's transmission fluid checked and replaced, but that timeline can vary depending on how your vehicle is used and your manufacturer’s recommendations. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
