Top Signs Your Vehicle Needs an Oil Change
The best way to extend the lifespan of your car, and to keep it operating at a peak performance level, is to stay on top of routine maintenance needs. At the top of that list is the oil change.
Regularly changing your oil and filters ensures that your engine is well-lubricated and able to work the way it’s intended. In the long run, routine oil changes can save you a lot of money and a lot of hassle, staving off engine degradation and other major maintenance problems.
The question is, how do you know when it’s time to schedule an oil change at the Greeley Nissan service center? There are a few red flags and warning signs to keep in mind.
4 Signs It’s Time for an Oil Change
The manual says so.
For one thing, you can always consult the manual, which was written by the designers of your car, a.k.a. the people who know it best. The manual will provide you with a general estimate of how often you should be getting your oil changed. Check today to verify that you’re not overdue.
Your oil is dark or dirty.
Once every month or so, use the dipstick to check your engine oil level. If the oil tank is dry, that’s a big red flag that you need to top it off ASAP. If the oil is dark or dirty, that’s a good sign that you should get an oil change in the near future. Ideally, your oil will be honey- or amber-colored, which shows you that it’s still fairly clean.
Your engine is making odd noises.
Oil helps keep your various engine components from grinding against each other and causing excessive friction. If you hear a jostling or bumping sound coming from your engine, it may mean that the oil isn’t doing its job and needs to be changed out.
Your dashboard light is on.
Many newer vehicles will come with dashboard lights that start to glow when your oil gets below the 10 percent cutoff. That’s a prime time to schedule an appointment for an oil change.

What Are the Benefits of Buying vs. Leasing?
Buying is the tried and true method of getting behind the wheel of a new car. But leasing has soared in popularity in recent years, with nearly one out of every three new vehicles on the road today being a lease.
So which option is right for you?
Because a vehicle is a significant expense, it’s worth taking the time to examine buying vs. leasing to help you determine which route is best for you. Ultimately, the decision to buy or lease is a personal preference as there are several benefits to each.
Buyer’s Guide to Nissan Financing Options
Buying
Buying a vehicle, whether paying for it outright or financing the purchase with a loan, is the more traditional way of getting a new set of wheels. Here are some advantages of being a buyer:
- Owning a vehicle means having the freedom to customize it with accessories, decals, or aftermarket upgrades.
- When you buy a vehicle, you can sell it or trade it in at any time, making it easy to exchange your vehicle for a different one.
- Buying a vehicle means you can sell it at a later time and recoup some of the money you put into it.
- If you keep a purchased vehicle long enough to pay it off in full, you will not have to make any monthly payments to keep a car in your driveway and can eliminate one of your monthly expenses.
- There’s no limit as to how many miles you put on a purchased vehicle.
Leasing
Leasing is the alternative to buying and while vehicle leasing has been around for decades, the practice has risen in popularity in recent years. Some of the benefits of leasing include:
- Leasing generally comes with lower monthly payments since you are not financing the entire cost of the car.
- The vehicle is typically under warranty for the duration of the lease, which means you aren’t likely to get saddled with expensive repair and maintenance costs.
- Leasing allows you to always be behind the wheel of a newer car with the latest safety and tech features.
- Leasing requires less money down and there are no upfront sales taxes.
- You still maintain the option of buying a leased car at the end of the lease term if you wish.

Weld County Junior Livestock Sale
Greeley Nissan was a proud supporter of the Weld County Fair’s Junior Livestock Sale again this year! We love attending this event and supporting the hardworking kids from 4H and FFA (Future Farmers of America). The kids learn discipline and practical life skills by working very hard year round to raise quality livestock. In turn, local businesses and individuals come together to purchase these animals from them. For the majority of these kids, that money goes into a college fund, so they can further their education.
These great kids develop confidence, leadership skills, and learn the payoff of hard work. We’re happy to be a part of that and plan to do so for years to come! Thank you to all the other buyers who came together to be a part of this amazing program. If you’d like to see what it’s all about, join us for the same type of sale at the Larimer County Fair on August 7th!

Highlights of the Nissan Frontier
Design
When it comes to looks, the Frontier has everything you could hope for.

Then there are the accessories available with your utili-track channel system, including:
- Non-sliding toolbox
- Sliding toolbox
- Sliding bed extender
- Yakima longarm height extension
- Bed tent

Living up to its claim of versatility, the Frontier has two engine options: a 152-horsepower 2.5L 4-cylinder engine and a 261-horsepower 4.0L V6 engine. Your transmission choices are a 6-speed manual transmission or an automatic transmission with a manual shifter. The Frontier can also be outfitted with 4X4 for better off-road capability, and you can use the drive mode knob to switch between 4-wheel drive (4WD) and 2-wheel (2WD) drive, depending on your route.
The available Hill Start Assist and Hill Descent Control features give you more power to get to the top of that mountain and keep you in control on the way down. This is especially helpful if you’re towing at the max capacity of 6,720 lbs. when properly equipped.
Safety
The Frontier has a comprehensive airbag system, Dynamic Traction Control, and Deviation Detection that corrects the path when it senses a discrepancy in the steering.

Inside the 2019 Nissan Rogue
Design
The 2019 Nissan Rogue comes available in nine colors, each of which accent the car’s beauty. Cutting edges from the boomerang headlights of the vehicle glide into smooth strands, leading to the Rogue’s aerodynamic LED tail lights. The 2019 Nissan Rogue’s aesthetic is only accented by its V-Motion Grille, a staple of the Rogue line. This car isn’t form over function, though. The 2019 Nissan Rogue’s standard 19” alloy wheels are guaranteed to give you a consistently comfortable drive.
The interior of the 2019 Nissan Rogue is just as inviting as its exterior. The available piano black trim with metallic accents provides unprecedented elegance to this crossover SUV family. The 2019 Rogue’s dogbone shaped cupholder also provides a convenient location for passengers to keep their belongings secure.
The Rogue also comes standard with a 7” color-display infotainment system featuring Android Auto™ and Apple Carplay™. That means your passengers can stay connected no matter where they go. The infotainment system also comes available with Nissan Door to Door Navigation and a Dual Zone AC System.
Performance
Thanks in no small part to its integrated Continuous Variable Valve Timing Control System (CVTCS) technology, the 2019 Nissan Rogue’s engine easily delivers an impressive 170 horsepower. But it doesn’t come at the expense of fuel economy. The Rogue achieves an estimated 26 mpg in the city and 33 mpg on the highway.

Nissan LEAF Plus with Extended Range
The 2019 Nissan LEAF got an upgrade this year with the new LEAF Plus! The Plus offers up to 226 mile range, as compared to the standard LEAF’s 150 mile range. The extended range and the sporty new design of the new LEAF makes it a more practical solution for those who have had “range anxiety” holding them back from making the switch to electric.
The newest LEAF design features Nissan’s signature V-motion grill, attractive new taillights and the floating roof that you see on other Nissan models such as the Maxima and Murano. Due to the larger batter, the Plus weighs about 300 lbs more than the standard option, but Nissan has made up for that by increasing the horsepower to 215 (up from 147) and the torque to 250 lb-ft (up from 236).
You also get plenty of new tech and safety in the LEAF Plus, including Nissan’s new e-Pedal, which allows you to drive with just one pedal. Braking us applied when your foot comes off the accelerator. The vehicle also offers emergency braking, rear cross traffic alert, lane correction, blind spot monitoring, and Nissan’s amazing new ProPilot Assist. This feature is a hands on driver assist, which keeps in you centered in your lane and at a safe distance from the car ahead of you. ProPilot assist isn’t quite “self driving” but it sure comes close!
All of these amazing features, as well as state and federal rebates, plus our brand new Level III fast charger at Greeley Nissan, make buying your new Nissan LEAF easier than ever! Stop by and see us today to learn more about the LEAF Plus and how you can charge fast and for free! Read about one new LEAF owner’s experience from the Greeley Tribune.
New Level 3 EV Charger coming to Greeley!
We are very excited to announce that Greeley Nissan has received a grant from the Colorado Energy office through the Charge Ahead Colorado program! Our ongoing commitment to Electric Vehicle adoption has given us the opportunity to partner with CEO on expanding EV charging throughout the state of Colorado! We are using these grant funds to install a new Level 3 EV charging station at our dealership. As our local EV drivers may know, our previous Level 3 charging station has recently gone out of commission, so having a new one installed will be a huge benefit to our community!
As a dealership that cares about the environment, we want to make it as easy as possible for people to make the switch to America’s best selling EV, the 100% electric Nissan LEAF. We know that convenient and fast charging stations are the key to making the switch from gas to electric a seamless one. The addition of a new, state of the art, fast charger on site will make a huge difference in the lives of current and future EV drivers and we are proud to be a part of that.
We plan to have the new charging station installed and open to the public before Jan. 31, 2019. It will be available for use 24/7. Stay tuned for updates on this project. We’ll be sure to let you know as soon as the new charging station is open to the public!
