Trouble Spots for the Maxima
Here are some known problems that can happen to the 4th gen max. I don't know if this has been posted before or not.
Automatic transmission: The original automatic-transmission (model F04) shift solenoids allowed slipping and premature wear. (1997)
Brake noise: Rear brakes rattle on rough road. (1995)
Brake noise: Groaning from the rear brakes is caused by the parking brakes not fully releasing, requiring new brake cables and pads. (1995-99)
Brake noise: Groaning from rear brakes at slow speeds may be due to binding parking brake cable. 1995-99)
Clutch: The clutch may slip when accelerating hard in 4th or 5th gear due to a problem with the friction material. (1995)
Engine knock: Spark knock or ping may result from a defective onboard computer. (1995-97)
Engine noise: Noise from the front of the engine may be caused by excessive play in the timing chain for which a new tensioner and chain guide are required. (1995-96)
Hard starting: Hard starting, stalling, or stumbling under load could be caused by corrosion of the coolant sensor. (1995-96)
Hard starting: If the engine does not start on the first attempt, the engine may crank very slowly on the second attempt because of a problem with the engine-control computer. (1995)
Rough idle: Several problems (no-start, no A/C, rough running, etc.) can be traced to broken wires in the engine compartment where the harness bends near the right strut tower. (1995-97)
Rough idle: Rough running engine accompanied by check engine light may require revised powertrain control module. (1997)
Automatic transmission: The original automatic-transmission (model F04) shift solenoids allowed slipping and premature wear. (1997)
