Diff service recommendations

[Buptaboy]

Hi all,

 

I spent a short amount of time with Bob at Tarmac Sportz a while back and he advised of some bits I need to look into getting done to preserve my 370. One of these was the diff oil change/service. Can anyone recommend a garage local to cambridgeshire to get this done as I have seen some posts through a FB group that have said some garages have had difficulty completing the job.

 

I am also planning on getting the clutch fluid changed and the auxiliary(?) belt on the front of the engine done at the same time, but is there anything else any of you would recommend checking over or getting serviced at the same time? Car is on 50k miles.

 

Thanks!

When was the last service and what did it entail?

As far as I know, no diff service. Service history was all from Nissan dealer but only oil and filter changes.

If the car is new to you and you are unsure of the past service history then I would advise getting a 60,000 mile service completed by a recommended 350Z Indy specialist.

The drive belt should be replaced if showing signs of wear or is past the self adjusting maximum mark.

The spark plugs should be replaced if the gap exceeds 0.055in.

The diff fluid change is straight forward and should be changed depending on the past driving conditions.

Have a look at the Nissan service intervals etc below.
