Your Guide to 2001 Infiniti Q45 Scheduled Maintenance

You want your Infiniti Q45 to last as long as possible. If you put in the effort to keep up with proper maintenance, you could hit 200,000 miles (or beyond!) in your Q45. So, you want to care for your car, but you’re not sure when to get certain services. Instead of waiting for an issue to arise with your Q45, you can stay ahead of problems before they even begin. Just follow your 2001 Infiniti Q45 maintenance schedule!

The recommended maintenance schedule is put together by Infiniti, your vehicle manufacturer. Scheduled maintenance services can vary depending on driving conditions, climate, and other factors; however, there’s a good chance that your vehicle’s recommended maintenance services will include tire rotations, vital fluid checks/exchanges, filter changes, brake pad replacement, and oil changes. Keeping up with routine service appointments is a great way to keep your Q45 running for longer, increase your vehicle safety, and prevent common 2001 Infiniti Q45 problems.

Essential Maintenance to Keep Your Infiniti Q45 Running Newer, Longer

Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 2001 Infiniti Q45 for factory-recommended routine maintenance and our technicians will jump right in with a Courtesy Check. A Courtesy Check helps "set the stage" for your service and catch any small problems before they turn into big repairs. Each Courtesy Check includes a free battery test and an inspection of your Q45's windshield wiper blades, head and tail lights, filters, fluid levels, tires, and alignment.

Maybe it's time to find a new auto battery for your 2001 Infiniti Q45. If your current battery is more than three years old, it may be time for a replacement (batteries typically last somewhere between three and five years). Depending on the climate where you live and your habits while driving, your Q45 may need a replacement battery sooner. Extremely hot or cold temperatures can take a toll on your Infiniti Q45 battery, and so can frequent short drives. It can be tempting to try and get as much life out of your battery as possible, but it’s smart to check it regularly and replace it before it gets too weak. If you keep driving on a battery that can't hold a charge, you run the risk of being stranded when your battery finally gives out (and no one can predict where that might be!). Your Infiniti Q45 could quickly go from being a trusty ride to a source of stress in a matter of minutes.

Staying on schedule for battery replacements and motor oil changes can help your 2001 Infiniti Q45's engine run smoother. To learn how often Infiniti recommends you have the oil changed in your 2001 Q45, check out the information table at the beginning of this page. Remember, things like average outside temperature or frequency of trips could increase or decrease this interval for your specific vehicle. Come in and speak with a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to find out how often to change your oil. Not sure what type of oil to use for your 2001 Infiniti Q45? We can help with that, too!

Periodic service to the steering system in your Infiniti Q45 can improve ride comfort and help you maintain control of your vehicle. That's important if you plan on taking the road less traveled! Bring your car to Firestone Complete Auto Care, where our technicians can check your car’s steering components and, if necessary, provide the appropriate Infiniti Q45 steering and suspension services. This can include things like power steering fluid replacement, wheel alignment adjustments, replacement of struts and wheel bearings, and ball joint lubrication. Components within your Infiniti Q45's steering system require regular maintenance.

Without routine Infiniti Q45 maintenance, you could be feeling the heat on the road – literally! A malfunctioning A/C system or overheating engine can wreak havoc on your car. Don’t sweat it, though! Our technicians can take care of those issues, too. At Firestone Complete Auto Care, we have what it takes to provide top-notch service for your Infiniti Q45 engine heating and cooling systems, as well as your air conditioning. Is it time to replace the radiator in your Infiniti Q45? We can take care of that. Got a funny smell coming from your A/C? We’re on it.

Take an active role in maintaining your 2001 Infiniti Q45. Get answers to common Infiniti Q45 maintenance questions and learn more about caring for your vehicle.

  • What do I do if I hit a pothole in my Infiniti Q45? Check your car for pothole damage! If you’ve recently hit a pothole (or even if you don’t remember hitting one… they can be sneaky!) check your tire treads, tire sidewalls, and wheels for damage. Potholes can also knock your car out of alignment, so have your alignment checked if you suspect you’ve driven over a rough patch of road lately.
  • When should I switch my Infiniti Q45 to high mileage oil? Got 75,000+ miles on the odometer? Consider high mileage motor oil. High mileage oil is formulated to address the specific problems encountered by high mileage vehicles, or those with more than 75,000 miles. It can help reduce oil consumption, smoke, and emissions from older Infiniti Q45 engines.
  •  Why are my Infiniti dashboard lights on? Don't ignore dashboard warning lights! Bring your Infiniti Q45 in for a diagnostic code scan as soon as a dashboard warning light flashes on, whether it's your check engine or battery light. Dashboard lights alert you to trouble under the hood.
