Every driver in Greenwich, CT, dreads the day when a flat tire gets them stranded on the side of the road. Don't worry; it's not a hassle to change a tire on your Q50 or QX60 with the five quick and easy steps below. Driving in Greenwich, CT: How To Change a Tire in 5 Easy Steps 1.    Pull Over Safely When you've got a flat tire, turn on your hazard lights to alert other drivers and find a safe place to pull over. Pick a spot with solid, level ground as far away from the road and traffic as possible to do the job safely. Put your vehicle in park or shift into reverse if you drive a manual, and engage the parking brake to prevent your car from rolling forward or backward. Place your emergency triangles a few feet behind your vehicle for extra visibility. more 2.    Get Your Tools Ready Take your spare tire, jack, lug wrench, and wheel wedges out of the trunk of your car. Place the wheel wedges, rocks, bricks, or big sticks that will also do the trick behind the tires to keep your vehicle in place. Use your lug wrench and unscrew the nuts, but don't remove them. You'll do that in a later step. 3.    Jack Up Your Car Find the jacking point under your car closest to the flat tire and jack your car up just enough to remove the wheel. You can now loosen the nuts further with the wrench and remove them. Put the nuts in a safe place to ensure you don't lose them. Take off the flat tire by pulling it towards you, and, as a precautionary measure, push the flat tire under your car to protect it if it slides off the jack. 4.    Mount the Spare Position the spare in front of the wheel well and line the rim up with the lug bolts. Push the tire inward until you can see the bolts poking through the rim. Fit the nuts onto the bolts and hand-tighten them. 5.    Lower Your Car Lower your car just enough for the spare to touch the ground. Use the wrench to tighten every other nut if there are five nuts. Lower your vehicle completely until the wheel touches the ground. Remove the jack and give the nuts a last and final good tightening to ensure they are on tight enough. Put all your tools and the flat tire in the trunk. Changing a tire is as easy as that! If you need to repair a tire or want to buy a new set, stop at DARCARS INFINITI of Greenwich today. The tire experts will help you with repairs and assist you in choosing the right tires for your vehicle from a wide range of quality tires.

You're probably aware that accidents and injuries can happen without warning at this point in your life. While you never want to find yourself in an accident in Greenwich, CT, there are ways to prepare for the unexpected. That includes having the right items in your first aid kit. 5 Items to Keep in Your First Aid Kit 1.    A Sturdy Container While a bag is pliable and can fit in smaller spaces in your vehicle, storing your medical items in a sturdy container is a good idea. The last thing you want is for items to get broken and leak all over the inside of the bag. Not only does that make a huge mess, but it also means you don't have those supplies when you need them.   You don't need to buy a box made specifically for these supplies (although you can). A sturdy plastic container will suffice. Make sure your kit is easily recognized as medical supplies and can be accessed quickly. more 2.    Instructions and Phone Numbers Inside your kit, you want to ensure that you have information about performing common first aid tasks, including CPR, making a tourniquet, treating head wounds, and more. It's possible to find pamphlets and cards online from sites such as the Red Cross and the American Heart Association.   It's also beneficial to store important phone numbers in your medical supplies container. Make sure to include the number of your primary care physician and friends or family members who should be contacted in case of an emergency. 3.    Medication If you take prescription medications, having a few days' worth of these in your car is a good idea. You never know when you may need to take them and want them readily available. It's also beneficial to have painkillers and anti-inflammatories in your kit. 4.    Personal Protective Equipment Protecting yourself from potentially harmful materials after an accident is imperative. You'll want to make sure you have gloves that protect you from blood and other bodily fluids and thicker gloves in case you have to deal with sharp metal or broken glass. 5.    Wound Coverings Bandages of various sizes, gauze pads, and wraps are beneficial for covering wounds and stopping bleeding. It's also a good idea to have antiseptic supplies to clean the wounds and ointments or creams to help with treatment.   You won't be able to predict when an accident might occur, but you can be ready by having medical supplies stored in your car.

Your vehicle has many advanced features that keep you informed about how it's running. One of the most dreaded things you can see when driving down the road is your engine warning light clicking on. There are many reasons why this light might turn on, and taking it to an INFINITI dealer to find out why is in your best interest. 4 Reasons Your Engine Warning Light May Be Turning On, According to an INFINITI Dealer 1.    Loose Gas Cap The most common reason your check engine light comes on is that you have a loose gas cap. To determine if this is the cause, tighten the gas cap and check to see if the light goes off. If it does, you're probably good to go—easy fix. For peace of mind, you can always take your vehicle in to have a professional inspect it to ensure the loose gas cap is the issue. more 2.    Problems With Your Transmission Your transmission is in place to transfer power from the engine to the wheels to keep you moving down the road. Your vehicle is equipped with delicate sensors that keep track of what's going on in your car, and if they sense that there are problems with the transmission, your check engine light will likely click on.   Since many different issues could impact your transmission, having a professional look at it is in your best interest. They'll be able to pinpoint the problem and put together a plan to get it fixed. 3.    Ignition System Failure Your ignition system consists of various components, from coil packs to spark plugs to a distributor and others. If any of these parts break or get damaged, your car lets you know by turning on your check engine light. Again, working with a professional should help ensure that this system gets appropriately fixed. 4.    Malfunctioning Catalytic Converter The catalytic converter is in place on your vehicle to transform carbon monoxide into carbon dioxide, which helps protect the environment. If this component malfunctions, not only will your check engine light turn on, but you might notice that your vehicle isn't performing as well as it used to or getting good fuel economy. Work with a professional to find the source of the malfunction and get it fixed.   Seeing your check engine light come on can be devastating. Not only can it fill you with panic, but it might also cause you to stress about how much the potential repairs will cost. Taking your vehicle to a professional as soon as possible is recommended. Whether you need service or are looking for a new car, visit DARCARS INFINITI of Greenwich today.

If you are buying a new car from an INFINITI dealer, one of the most critical issues to consider is the car warranty coverage offered by the manufacturer. This introduction is a general overview of the 2022 INFINITI warranty and other issues to consider. Manufacturer Limited Warranty The limited warranty offered by the manufacturer protects your new INFINITI for 48 months or 60,000 miles, whichever comes first. Factory warranties typically last three years or 36,000 miles. There are extra warranties to take into account. The powertrain warranty from INFINITI is also a little bit longer than most of its competitors, lasting six years or 70,000 miles. Bumper-to-Bumper Warranty The bumper-to-bumper warranty and the limited defect warranty take care of most INFINITI automotive parts and the restraint system. This is the same as the manufacturer's limited warranty above and covers you for 48 months or 60,000 miles. more Seat Belt Warranty Another unlimited-mileage warranty covers the seat belts on your new INFINITI. The seat belts are covered for 10 years. Powertrain Warranty The powertrain warranty provides basic coverage for parts classified as part of the powertrain. The main parts included are the engine, the transmission, the drivetrain, and other engine parts such as the gaskets and the fuel pump. The 2022 powertrain warranty covers your new INFINITI for six years or 70,000 miles. Perforation Warranty This coverage replaces sheet metal pieces, such as the body panels, damaged by rust or other corrosion. Your new INFINITI is covered for seven years and has unlimited miles during that time. Federal Emission Warranty The Federal Emission Performance Warranty covers the parts of your car that reduce emissions. The warranty covers eight years and 80,000 miles. Roadside Assistance All 2022 new INFINITI warranties include four years of roadside assistance. Roadside assistance includes towing coverage, help with flat tires, and lockout services. The cover by INFINITI is also generous and gives owners extra confidence as they head out on the road. INFINITI Dealer Certified dealers are crucial to maintaining and transferring INFINITI warranties when purchasing pre-owned vehicles. The manufacturer also has a CPO (certified pre-owned) program that covers vehicles that meet the requirements. With so many parts and technical procedures required to maintain your INFINITI properly, it doesn't make sense to buy your INFINITI or have it serviced anywhere but at an INFINITI-certified dealer.   While these details are general, some specifics may be different depending on your INFINITI model. You can learn all about your new INFINITI of choice from your local dealer. Get in touch with us at DARCARS INFINITI of Greenwich now to find out more.

No matter how careful you are, it's inevitable that your car will get scratched at some point. Whether it's a stray shopping cart in a parking lot or a rogue branch hanging over the road, car scratches are just a part of life for car owners. But just because they're common doesn't mean they're not frustrating. If you've recently found a scratch on your INFINITI, you may wonder what your options are. Keep reading to find out if you need to visit an INFINITI dealer. When Your INFINITI Gets Scratched, What Should You Do? 1.    Use Touch-Up Paint If the scratch is small and not too deep, you might be able to fix it with touch-up paint. You can purchase touch-up paint from most auto parts stores. Just make sure to get the paint that matches your car's color code. Once you have the paint, clean the area around the scratch with rubbing alcohol and then apply the paint with a fine-tipped brush. 2.    Bring it to Your INFINITI Dealer For bigger scratches, auto body filler and body tape are usually required. These materials aren't the easiest to work with, especially if you're not experienced in using them. So, unless you're confident in your ability to fix the scratch yourself, we recommend bringing your car to your dealer. They will have the experience and expertise to fix the scratch properly without damaging your vehicle further. more Why You Should Fix Car Scratches Right Away It may not seem like a big deal, but leaving a scratch untreated can lead to more significant problems down the road. First, the scratch can rust, which will not only damage the look of your car but can also weaken the structure. Second, a scratch can provide a foothold for dirt, grime, and other debris. Over time, this can lead to the formation of a larger blemish or even rust. So, it's best to take care of scratches as soon as they happen. How to Prevent Scratches in the Future The best way to deal with scratches is to prevent them from happening in the first place. Of course, you can't control everything, but there are some things you can do to minimize the risk of scratching your car. First, park in well-lit areas and avoid parking too close to other cars or objects.   Second, keep your car clean. A good washing removes any dirt, grit, or other substances that could cause scratches. Finally, wax your car regularly. A good coat of wax will create a protective barrier that should help to prevent scratches.   No one likes finding scratches on their car, but fortunately, there are some easy ways to fix them. Whether you use touch-up paint or rely on your dealer to take care of the work for you, you'll have your car looking good as new in no time! Take it to DARCARS INFINITI of Greenwich and leave the color matching and scratch-fixing to us.

Replace engine: these are two words no auto owner wants to hear. Your INFINITI dealer is here to help you set expectations during this daunting process. Need to Replace Engine of Your Car? INFINITI Dealer's Guide of 4 Things to Expect 1.    Replacement vs. Rebuilding Your engine is comprised of many different parts. Depending on what part fails and what has caused the failure, you may only need a partial replacement of affected parts. In rebuilding, the engine is disassembled, faulty parts are taken out, new parts are installed, and the engine is reassembled. While rebuilding can be less expensive than a complete replacement, you will need an exact diagnosis of the problem.   On the other hand, full engine replacement will involve completely swapping out an old engine for a new one. This step is more complex and may cost more money. more 2.    The Price Tag The cost of an engine replacement will include the price of the engine itself and any labor involved. Average expenses for the engine might run from about $4,000 to $9,000, but the final price will depend on a number of factors. New engines will naturally carry a higher price tag than used or rebuilt ones. The drawback of using an older engine is, of course, its reliability and performance value.   In addition, different makes and models will carry different costs. Engines from European manufacturers, for instance, tend to have higher prices. Similarly, if you are replacing a diesel, high-performance, or luxury engine, several thousand more dollars may be added to the cost. Labor costs are a separate expense and may add a few thousand dollars more to the total cost. 3.    The Process Just as with the price, the process for removing an engine will vary somewhat based on your make and model. Individuals who conduct these techniques abide by the manufacturer's service manual. The basic outline of the procedure is fairly similar across vehicles, though. For one, the hood is removed, the fuel system is depressurized, and fluids are drained. Parts like the fuel lines and the battery will also be disconnected from the engine.   Components such as the condenser and radiator may be moved to spare them from damage. Further, tools are utilized to unbolt the engine from the transmission and to disconnect motor mount bolts. After the old engine has been removed, the new engine will then be installed and bolted with the motor mounts. Next, a series of connections will take place, including the wiring harness, the coolant line, and the transmission. And, at last, fuels are re-added. 4.    The Duration As evidenced, engine replacement is a complicated process best done by a professional with extensive knowledge of your specific automobile. Once you have a capable and expertly installed engine in place, it should hopefully—barring any major hiccups—last you for several years and well over 100,000 miles driven.   Drive with more security with the INFINITI 6-year or 70,000-mile powertrain warranty, which covers your engine on models from the Q50 sedan to the QX80 luxury SUV.   Put all your auto maintenance needs in trusted hands. Contact the service department of DARCARS INFINITI of Greenwich and optimize your ride's performance and health.

Learning to drive can be one of your life's most exciting and stressful times. When you earn your driver's license, you know you've arrived. From then on, you're no longer just a passenger: you can legally drive. We want to give you some tips to help all student drivers who drive in Greenwich, CT. 3 Tips for Student Drivers in Greenwich, CT 1.    Don't Panic This is a piece of advice that's easy to understand but not necessarily easy to apply. When you learn to drive, everything is new. As with any skill, time and practice help you to perfect it. When you sit behind the wheel, it can sometimes feel overwhelming. It's easy to forget which way is left and which is right.   This, and other reactions, are brought on by stress. When you learn to drive, it’s important that you always have an experienced driver. Whether they're friends or family members, they'll help you with advice and guidance as you practice. It's also important to remember that every driver you see on the road was initially just like you. All of them had to take the same test, and they passed. more 2.    Practice Once you've passed your written driver's license, you have a least 90 days before you can apply for your practical test. Use this time wisely and practice as much as you can. Driving is a skill, and like all skills, the more you practice, the better you'll get. Your reactions will become sharper, and you will learn to anticipate possible situations through experience.   The experienced driver with you will also be able to help. For example, if you practice reverse parking, they can help you set up the cones and watch out for other vehicles. They can also help you with advice on anything you don't understand. Sometimes a friend or family member explaining something can help you learn faster than reading it in a book. 3.    Obey the Rules All the driving rules are explained in the Connecticut Drivers Manual. Learning the rules takes time, but the rules are important. Once you commit these rules to memory, they'll help you each day you are in your car. When you study and apply the rules, you gain confidence and become a safer driver too. Driving rules are there for a reason: they are designed to keep every driver and road user safe.   Be cautious of learning bad habits. Some drivers develop them through laziness or complacency. A bad habit may seem to make driving easier, but it could eventually result in an accident, a fine, or both. Always follow the rules to help keep yourself safe.   If you'd like to know more or choose the car you want once you pass the test, come and see us at DARCARS INFINITI of Greenwich.

When you regularly check your vehicle's tire pressure and inflate the tires to the proper pressure levels, you will save a bundle of cash on fuel and tire replacements and be safer on the road. The following tips from your INFINITI dealer will show how easy it is to check tire pressure and keep your INFINITI tires inflated to the proper PSI. Tips From Your INFINITI Dealer: How To Check Tire Pressure on Your Car Check the Pressure on Cold Tires It is essential to check the tire pressure levels when the tires are cold. If your tires are hot, it will influence the reading. Wait a few hours after you've driven before you check the PSI. Write Down the PSI The recommended tire pressure is on the inside of your passenger door or in your owner's manual. Some cars have different pressure levels for the front and rear tires. If the tire pressure levels vary, write down the recommended PSI for each tire. more Use a Tire Pressure Gauge Using a gauge makes checking the PSI easy. A battery-powered digital tire pressure gauge displays a digital reading and is the most accurate. The analog tire pressure gauges have dial faces that point to the pressure reading, and others have bars or marked sticks to show the level. Check the Pressure of Each Tire Pick any tire on your car and remove the valve cap. Press a digital or analog tire pressure gauge firmly onto the valve stem and wait for the reading. Write the reading down next to the correct tire pressure level on your piece of paper. Repeat the process until you've checked the pressure on all four tires and the spare. You can replace the valve cap if the tire is inflated correctly. Compare the Readings Check the pressure readings you wrote down against the correct PSI for each tire. If you notice that the pressure is lower than the recommended PSI, you will have to inflate the tire to the proper level. If the pressure reading is higher, you must deflate the tire. Add Air to Underinflated Tires Press an air compressor nozzle onto the tire air valve to seal it tightly. Hold the nozzle in place for 30 seconds and recheck the reading. Add air until the reading reaches the required PSI and replace the valve cap. Release Air From Overinflated Tires If the tire is overinflated, use your tire pressure gauge and press down on the metal pin in the valve stem to release air. Do this in short bursts and check the pressure level regularly until you get the correct pressure reading. You can then replace the valve cap.   With our easy guide on how to check your tire pressure, you will ensure that your car is fuel-efficient and your tires last longer. Stop at DARCARS INFINITI of Greenwich today for a thorough tire inspection and a wide range of the top tire brands.

Are you feeling curious about electric cars? Here at your Greenwich, CT, INFINITI dealer, we've compiled a convenient list of some of the most compelling reasons why someone may choose an electric vehicle (EV). Read more about what you need to know when considering going electric! From Your Greenwich, CT INFINITI Dealer: 5 Reasons To Consider an Electric Vehicle 1.    No Gas or Emissions The first thing that comes to mind about EVs is that they don't need gas power to drive. That's right – you will never have to revisit a gas station. No gas also means your car won't have any emissions, so you won't spend money on fuel or time on regular emissions testing to uphold environmental standards. 2.    Less Maintenance In line with no requirement for gas, EVs don't need the same amount of upkeep as other vehicles. No requirement for lubricated parts means you don't have to keep up with regular oil changes. And in general, EVs don't have as many moving parts as standard vehicles, and the parts they have do not require as frequent fixing or replacement. Again, you're saving money and time by skipping the usual amount of maintenance trips. more 3.    Financial Incentives Reducing maintenance fees isn't the only way to save money with electric cars. Firstly, the federal government grants up to $7,500 in income tax credit to EV purchasers. Connecticut also grants $42 in savings on vehicle registration fees and offers other purchase incentives for buying EVs, so wherever you look, you'll find a way to save or get back some money. 4.    Reducing Your Carbon Footprint In addition to substantially lowered noise pollution (EVs are super quiet when you drive compared to other cars), the absence of emissions makes purchasing an EV the best current option for reducing the individual carbon footprint of driving a vehicle. You won't contribute any smog or exhaust fumes to existing pollution levels, so you'll be helping the environment. 5.    Safe and Fun Driving After all of the time and money saved, you're also guaranteed a safe and fun drive. These vehicles meet the same safety standards as standard cars, and a set of safety standards is only in place for EVs. Above all, driving one is fun! The electric motor guarantees that your drives will be marked by instant torque, speedy acceleration, and smooth and quiet cruising. It's a great experience all around.   Now that you know some of the benefits of purchasing an electric car, it's time to get behind the wheel of one to see it all for yourself! Call DARCARS INFINITI of Greenwich to schedule a test drive of one of our new or pre-owned EVs.

We've all experienced an encounter with an angry driver, and many of us have been that driver. However, drivers should avoid road rage on our local roads in Greenwich, CT. Doing this can help make our local roads safer. Here is what you can do to help. How To Handle Road Rage in Greenwich, CT When faced with an aggressive driver, things can escalate quickly. It is essential to handle the situation with care. Always try to minimize contact with the other driver, let them pass you if they are trying to, and never engage with them directly. Hopefully, the situation will resolve itself without things escalating further.   However, sometimes this doesn't work. When this happens, you may be under a lot of stress. If a driver is putting your safety at risk on the road, try to pull off somewhere safe and call for help. If they approach your vehicle, do not open the door, exit the car, or roll down your window. Unfortunately, some aggressive drivers can be very unpredictable. more How To React When You're Feeling Angry on the Road If you are someone who tends to get angry on the road, you should know that there are things you can do to manage these feelings. By acting this way, you endanger not only your safety but also the safety of other motorists. People under stress are more likely to make dangerous mistakes, and you never know what kind of driver is in the other vehicle.   If you feel like you are constantly in a rush, you may need to work on managing your time more efficiently. Otherwise, you can work on controlled breathing and other anger management techniques to help. Try to relax on the road and make your trips as enjoyable as possible with good music or an interesting podcast. Finally, ensure that you are getting enough sleep every night. Doing this will help you regulate your emotions more effectively. Understanding the Experience from Another Perspective People tend to react poorly to drivers who are distracted or otherwise disrespectful of others on the road. Slow driving or unpredictable behavior is what typically sets people off. While it is up to every driver to manage their emotions, minimizing poor driving habits can help you reduce the likelihood of experiencing anger directed toward you on the road.   On the other hand, if you are usually the one acting aggressively, thinking about the situation from outside of your perspective can help you keep your cool. Understand that sometimes people make mistakes on the road because they are young and inexperienced. Other times, they may be elderly or confused. You never fully know what the other driver is going through, and exposing them to hostility on the road is unsafe.   We value the safety of everyone in our local community. We hope you can use this information to help make our local roads safer for all drivers. If you are looking for a vehicle with top-notch safety features, we would be happy to help. Contact us today at DARCARS INFINITI of Greenwich, and let us help you find a car to drive confidently.

It's your first week behind the wheel. You're in Greenwich, CT: one of the most beautiful places in the country, but also one of the busiest. How do you navigate our busy roads like a pro? Here are some tips to help new drivers get started! Great Tips for New Drivers in Greenwich, CT 1.    Always Wear Your Seatbelt One of the most important things to remember as a newly licensed driver is always to wear your seatbelt. Seatbelts are not only the law in many states but can also save your life in the event of an accident.   For example, not wearing a seatbelt in Connecticut carries a fine of $92. But the ticket cost is nothing compared to the potential injuries you could sustain if you're involved in a crash while not wearing a seatbelt. Even at low speeds, the force of an impact can be enough to cause serious injuries. So make sure to always buckle up before hitting the road. more 2.    Don't Text and Drive It is estimated that about 9% of all fatal car accidents are caused by texting and driving. That is why it's crucial to be extra careful when you are behind the wheel. As a newly licensed driver, you need to be aware of your surroundings and be able to react quickly to any changes in traffic. Even if you are stopped at a red light, it is still distracting and dangerous. 3.    Keep a Safe Distance From Other Cars Keeping a safe distance gives you enough time to react if the car in front of you suddenly slows down or stops. This is especially true for new and student drivers who may not be familiar with the maneuvering required to avoid a collision. Rear-end collisions are one of the most common types of accidents, and they often occur when one driver is following too closely behind another. 4.    Use Turn Signals When Changing Lanes or Turning As a newly licensed driver, you may focus on driving mechanics and forget important safety provisions, like using your turn signal. In Connecticut, the law requires that you signal at least 100 feet before the turn. Failure to do so can result in a ticket. Beyond following the law, though, signaling is just good manners. It lets other drivers know what you're about to do so that they can adjust their speed or position accordingly, and it makes it a lot less likely you'll be involved in an accident.   There you go! The top tips for driving in our area. And if you're looking for your perfect car, be sure to visit us at DARCARS INFINITI of Greenwich. We have a wide selection of vehicles, and we'll work with you to find the perfect one for your needs.
