i started the car and it barely started, then just died, did it a few times. then while driving (5spd) when going into neutral, it would just drop rpms to like 200 or just die again. wierd thing is it drives and revs great, no power loss and revs all the way up. so its not the MAF. any ideas??? thanx!

oh got a nail in the tire same F'n day!

 

o2 sensor possibly

 

stray cat resting in your engine? but really, carbon buildup in the IM?

 

Idle Air Control Valve.

Betcha money.

 

just replaced about a month ago!

 

yea i have the same problem, i changed my Idle Air Control Valve, and had the same problem come back again in a couple days, i just have to rev up the engine to 2,000 rpm, then it idles fine.

 

went to nissan and a mechanic (who i personally know) told me just to reset ecu (disconnect battery) and use TB/Intake cleaner. will do tomorrow, hope it works.

its true, nissans reliability is overrated. i take excellent care of my car never abuse it and i got a new problem every month now.

 

any updates??
