If your Nissan Sentra has a loud engine noise, it could be due to loose valves or low oil, which can lead to various engine issues. Problems may arise such as increased oil consumption, the need for more frequent oil changes, and the risk of engine overheating which could potentially cause fires or even an explosion. Loose gaskets should be tightened promptly, and loose spark plugs can also cause trouble. It's important to address oil leaks promptly. The coolant should be replaced every 60,000 miles, and spark plugs should typically be changed every 100,000 miles unless using a copper spark plug, which should be changed every 30,000 miles. Your air filter should be replaced every 15,000 to 30,000 miles.
