So, who here has a modded Max (only performance) and is still under warranty?

 

me and a lot more on here

 

I tried not to. I got the 100,000 mile B-B warranty and it took about 45,000 then I dove in.

 

So far I am putting on things that can be taken off quite easily....

Injen intake.............well that's it (I'm a poor polak )

 

So before inspection, or in case of dealership appointment, you guys take everything off, right? That's gotta' be a pain in the ***...

 

I never had any problems, I got 90K miles and when I had 860 miles on the odo I started sprayn her down with NOS for little more ooooomph. I been to the dealer with NOS all hooked up, bolt ons, lowered suspension, big wheels.... never had any issues Even after 5 MAFs :P

 

i put on an intake, struts and springs while under warranty. i'm about to go in for my 2nd warranteed MAFS replacement on Tuesday.

 

Mike, I'm going to say you go to one hell of a dealership.

instead of replacing the crap OEM maxima MAF, why don't you guys just buy a Z32 MAF or a Cobra MAF...(well, assuming those will fit)

but I would get tired of replacing the POS.

MEEEEEEEEEEE. i voided my warranty the first week i got the car.

 

where is that dealer......is he related to you?

 

hey, i'm more than willing. just point me in the right direction.

my dad has a 2k maxima and i asked if he'd let me trade my MAFS for his since he has no intention of modifying his car, but he's convinced that the MAFS problem is my fault for modding my car and won't let me touch his.

 

how would i know if my MAF is not good ? any signs beside the check engine light ?anythign i should feel in the car or notice ?>

 

i only have a berk intake but unless the problem can be blamed on the mod it doesnt matter that it is on the car.

 

yes, where is this dealership in chicago??? I may start going there...

 

i modded mine...problem with dealer after blown maf, and now its inspired me to work harder into fixing my own ish..... Wheel bearing, tackled mostly by Turbo95max...and few other problems tackled by me, screw nissan. They only thing theyre good for is theire Consult II computer.

they can't even do a decent oil change. on my last one they overfilled it by about a quarter, and ripped a portion of the protective cover.

 

no problems w/ my dealersihp (yet)... i've a CAI and Straight Pipe... they'll probably get **** and void my warranty if i blow my MAF... i say take it to the dealership...

 

The dealership is on the burbs of Chicago Last time I was there they where putting a Spec V engine in- kid had Greddy exhaust, HS headers, AEM CAI... he drained the oil out of the engine in order to get a new one from Nissan. QR25DE engines where famous for burning lots of oil through the rings... he was burning some, but it was within Nissans spec for a new car... he got fed up, drained the oil and reved it till it locked up- WARRANTY I also worked for the same dealer, and sent .ORG members there for having all kinds of Warranty work done on their rides. I currently work for Acura, too bad I can't have any of ya come in for work... but then again ya don't drive POS Acuras. I'm heading to a local Bentley dealer pretty soon.

 

yes, but which one?? I go to evanston nissan cause that is where I got my car. I have an intake and they havent said anything plus they were good about the rotor TSB

 

Go to Woodfield

 

you would definitely take off an aftermarket intake before getting warranty on your MAF but would you take it off for 30k maintenance?

 

I'm going to evanston soon for wind noise and broken window motor for drivers side. Plus and oil change. Hope I can leave my intake in.
