The 2009 Nissan Maxima comes equipped with a timing chain. It is recommended to replace the coolant every 60,000 miles, while the air filter should be replaced every 15,000 to 30,000 miles. Spark plugs typically need to be changed every 100,000 miles, except for copper spark plugs which should be replaced every 30,000 miles. If engine issues arise, it could be due to a loose gasket or a spark plug popping off. Oil leaks should be addressed promptly, and excessive oil consumption may necessitate earlier oil changes. Engine overheating is a critical issue that can lead to fires and potentially result in a car explosion.
