Persistent Misfire
Persistent Misfire
Hello all. I'm back to try and figure out the issue with my 99 maxima. Ever since I've had the car (a couple years, ~15k miles) the car runs really rough after warming up while accelerating. It only seems to become a problem after running for 30+ minutes. When I try accelerate I either lose power or it will start shaking until I back off the gas. I have a cheap scanner that I would use to check the codes and they would always been p0400 and p0500. I took it in sometime over the past year and the mechanic replaced the EGR valve but the problem persisted. At some point I had also noticed that exhaust was really loud and the muffler replaced in the last month. The SES light is no longer on but I still have the issue and now i'm getting a p1320 error code. I was thinking about replacing the ignition coils but i'm worried i'll be wasting money on parts that don't need to be replaced and still have the issue.
+1 to fuel filter replacement. That is a regular maintenance item.
Here's a video about testing for the P1320 code. Note the video comments posted and information links.
