good bye ORG

So after 2 1/2 years of owning my maxima and just 20,000 miles, my transmission is gradually making its way to the grave yard. I am parting with my max and will not return with a new one or another used. Thanks to everyone through the years who has helped me and given me advice on anything like saving me 700 bucks by just spraying my steering rack with WD40 instead of replacing it because it was locking up, to all other tid bits and easy do it yourself repairs.

I'm outta here in at most 2 weeks and I have taken off my mods and will be selling them on here probably for pick up only. Check the items for sale in the North East members section also. My mods have less than 10,000 miles on them and include my Fujita CAI, Racingline FSTB (with out a sticker) and my "factory red" EZKoncepts L.E.D. tails !!!

Damn man sorry to see you go... you are like 4th person I heard of in a week to be leaving....

Seriously, though, what's up with the transmissions? Mine hasnt given me any problems and I"m at 92,000+ miles..... Hopefully you'll change your mind and opt for an 09 or 2010!

1st Coolmax and now Fastmax

I guess Im the only one who drives had and still has his trans working fine Im looking to trade/get out of my car only if I can find a great deal, because of mileage and what I owe, other then that I may just have to continue paying the car off and drive what I got.

Good luck with what ever you drive. With all these tranny problems I am surprised that there is no recall.

Hi! Good luck with your new ride. Sorry to see you go!
I am interested in your LED Tails please PM me so that we can do the deal!

I too had problems with my transmission. My 04SL was a lemon and was bought back by Nissan and my stealership and swapped for a second production run 05 SE. The transmission in my 04 died at 15K Kms that's 9,000 miles! Just changed the transmission in my 05 at 96K KMs that 65,000 miles...thankfully I have extened the extended warranty to 160K KMS/ 3 years! No cost or deductibles and new transmission....it's just such a hassle though.

Those are more expensive and the max is just as fast but yea the M's are real nice.

The FX was a great choice and I love that color!
