When should I come in for Nissan Maxima differential service?

Differential service frequency varies from car to car. Double check your owner’s manual and talk with a technician.

Is it possible to reset the Maxima malfunction warning light on my own?

While resetting a malfunction warning light at home is technically possible, doing so is not advisable. The check engine light is typically a sign of a problem in one of your Maxima's systems, and simply resetting the light will not address the underlying issue. Instead, you should bring your vehicle to a reliable auto shop to have the underlying problem identified and fixed to help ensure the safety and reliability of your Maxima.

Don't ignore a drivetrain malfunction in your Maxima. As soon as you notice a problem, have it checked by a professional mechanic to diagnose the issue and carry out any necessary repairs. Driving with a faulty drivetrain is risky and may further damage your Maxima.

Does my Maxima drivetrain include the transmission?

The transmission is a crucial part of your drivetrain system. The drivetrain in your Maxima is responsible for transferring power from the engine to the wheels to move the vehicle forward. This system consists of several components, including the transmission, driveshaft, differential, and axles.
