The 2008 Nissan Altima is equipped with a timing belt. It's recommended to replace the coolant every 60,000 miles. For optimal performance, the air filter should be replaced every 15,000 to 30,000 miles. The spark plugs typically need to be changed every 100,000 miles, but if they're copper, they should be replaced every 30,000 miles. Keep an eye out for engine issues such as loose gaskets and spark plug detachment, which can lead to problems. Timely repair of oil leaks is important to prevent engine overheating, which could result in fires or even an explosion. Additionally, be aware of excessive oil consumption, which may necessitate more frequent oil changes than usual.
