Car is going in

Dropping the car off at Nissan tonight for warranty work.

1) 02 Engine rattle TSB
2) Hesitation TSB
3) Sunroof wind noise
4) Rear brake issue

Of the 4, will they fix any ????

Puzzling, this is.

considering that your Max is less than 3 years old and has less than 36K on the odometer, all of those should be fixed for no charge ... if not, the TSB's should be at least covered for no cost

Ok, here's the deal.....

1) Could not duplicate rattle on two consecutive mornings. Advised me to bring it back when weather gets colder.

2) Mass air flow meter is out of range. New maf ordered and reprogramming ECM will be done upon installation.

3) Wind noise fixed.

4) Rotors need to be resurfaced, not under warranty. Orginal dealer will resurface at no charge.


So, all in all, not bad.

All six speeders who had hesitation TSB, did you notice an improvement?

Thanks, Anakin

Sounds like you had a pretty good response from them. I imagine the rattle is going to be tough to reproduce.

I had the hesitation done and I have not experienced the hesitation since.

Thanks, That is good news about your hesitation. I did provide copies of the TSB to the dealer and they said it was a good idea. All in all it was a good experience.
