Common problems and easy repairs on a 2013 Versa

The 2013 Nissan Versa 1.6 SL is a relatively easy car to maintain, but does have a cramped engine bay which can make some of its repairs problematic to complete. To access the engine air filter with reliability, you only have to disengage a few fasteners. These fasteners are no problem to disengage, allowing you to reliably change your filter. The headlight bulb is easy to access and change on this vehicle. You only have to reach behind the housing to complete a bulb change. The components of the spare tire are easy to access in the rear of the vehicle. This keeps the tire and jack kit ready to go in case of emergency.

As stated, some things are more problematic on the 2013 Nissan Versa 1.6 SL. To change the fog light, you will have to reach through the wheel well lining for access. This can be a problem, as the lining can be difficult to peel back and you will have tor remove many fasteners in order to complete. Checking the engine coolant fluid level is difficult, as the fluid reservoir is located in a not overly visible spot in the engine bay. You will have to remove an additional hose before you have access to the battery bracket for a battery removal. An extra step you won’t find on other models.
