I thought it was the MAF but replaced it and still have the problem!! . So far I have had the TB cleaned as well as the IACV, and now the MAF replaced. It still stalls. I also got the P0505 code meaning the idle control system. Also the SES, Fuel light and battery light are on when it stalls. Battery is only 3 months old. Please help I am running out of ideas short of getting a new IACV and/or taking it to nissan.
ALso I forgot to add that I only had the battery disconnected for 2hrs while I was installing new MAF. Would having it dissconnected for 24hrs help.

Hey guys, dont know too much about coilovers...I have some DUMB questions...What is missing from this picture of these coilovers?
1. The tophat on the rear two...
2. The adjustable dampening ***** missing on the rear two...
Is that it? Would I have to buy anything else for these if I were to purchase them? Are the parts I'm missing readily available for purchase SEPARATELY? Thanks for any help on this issue.

I called a local dealer and asked them possible scenarios for why the black plastic piece on the back struts would be missing. They said they've never ever heard of a issue where the entire dampening adjustment **** was gone (including the metal part underneath it?) because it actually goes down INTO the strut for adjustment. At the time i called, I didn't ask if its possible for the black adjustment **** to just pop off and leave the swiveling metal lever underneath it. Thats why I'm confused.
ALSO..if ANYONE can get me a pic of the rears *CLOSEUP* of the **** and tell me if that **** really does come off...I would REALLY appreciate it! AND it would definitely clear up all my confusions

Hey everyone, I was looking for new headlights for my 2000 Maxima. It is black so I figured that black halo headlights would look good on them. I was wondering if the ones they sell on Ebay work good? What have been your experiences with purchasing those?
