Hello. My 04 Maxima is acting up. The ses light comes on and it has a hardh shift from 3-2 downshift and has delayed shifting also. The shop said i need to replace the transmission. Any other less expensive solutions?

 

If the SES light is on read and post the codes.

 

Search the forum for the transmission topics as there was quite a bit of discussion about the kit which fixes a lot of issues.

 

If it's a hard shift between gears it's a chance your solenoids are caked up. DO not replace your throttle body, just remove the solenoids and clean them out.
