my maxima when i start it after it has been left for a couple of hours mostly overnight when i start it it goes off a couple of times and when i press the gas nothing happens and the car only start to move when it heats up but when i get to an uphill the car struggles to go up, i went to a mechanic did a tune up after we read the code for the check engine light but this problem is still there and its so annoying because the car is using a lot of gas, if anyone knows what might be the problem please let me know i would really appreciate it

 

1. Stop making multiple threads for the same issue.

2. Please use proper punctuation so we can actually read and understand what you are saying.

3. Have you checked your MAF? Coilpacks? Have you done any diagnosis at all yet? What was the code that was read?

 

Solid sentence.

 

coils tend to fail in these cars. common issue, you may want to start there.

 

You can start by checking connections....did you wash your engine lately? Water?
Next, you can pull the coil on plugs, look around the bottom of the plug wire.....where it plugs onto the spark plug. Usually when people say the coil is bad, it is just a misfire from the bottom of the wire/extension. Usually a cleaning and some dielectric grease will fix it right up. You can see if it has been arcing off by the grey/whitish chalky look to it.
You say you did a tune up, so I would start with the coils.
