I think i have two problems....crank sensor failure and ignition coil failure.

Is there any long term damage I can have on my engine if i have been ignoring the problem for few months?

Also, what possibly could go wrong If i do have these 2 issue's with my car?

 

How did you determine the failure of the parts you listed? I was under the impression that if your crank sensor goes out your car will stall and not restart.

 

get it towed to the junk yard..j/k

why do you think the car has the mentioned probs..did you get it diagnosed??

 

ok well this is my problem for the past month. I have an SES code P1320. I took it to my mechanic. He said that he is not sure what the problem is but thinks its the crank sensor. I did some research and ask some org members...they said p1320 is ignition coils. My mechanic said he is not sure about that. I have noticed some power loss since the SES came on. My car does hesitate at times. I noticed when you start the engine 1/15 times it doesn't rev up correctly(hesitation). WHO should i trust, mechanic or the P1320 code. I don't wanna get tripple raP3d, my *** can handle only 1 of these fixes. Already spent $200 trying to fix this with replacement of 2 SENSORS and didn't fix the SES light. I don't wanna try replacing parts I don't need to.

by the way my car is:

2000 Maxima GLE , w/ 69k miles


I NEED YOUR EXPERTICE ADVICE PEEPZ!

THANKS

 

that sounds like coils to me. and you got a 2k at that mileage my coils went also (72k) im sure someone here can tell you how to test to see which coil is gone, etc i dont know how personally, they fixed it before i bought the car.

 

I'd agree with the coils diagnosis based on other org members problems like yours.

 

I replaced my coils 10,000 miles ago for the same code and SES light. Maxima has no SES and no stuttering. Go figure.
