Went for my 15,000 maintenance the other day. While there I showed the mechanic my printed out copy of tsb's for my 2k2 6 speed. I told him I've been having problems with the howling noise and the hesitation in third gear. About an hour later he called me and told me they needed to order (going off my paper) disc assy clutch, cover assy clutch, and bearing clutch. Also, they ordered a new Maf that needed a new ECU update. For anyone who had these tsb's done, are these the correct parts?

 

Don't know about the clutch parts, but I just had my ECU updated last Monday and I didn't need a new MAF. I guess some do others don't according to the TSB. But even if they order all those parts you aren't paying for them so what's the difference. it would be worse if you stood there with the TSB in hand and they would do nothing for you.

 

were did you find the TSBs if there is a link plese post it for me. Thanks

 

Here's the link for the TSB's: Clicky

 

whats considered as the TSB for hesitation on an auto? i am guessing the transmission slipping?

 

The TSB that I believe you are refering to is for Automatic 02-03 maximas and altimas that use the drive by wire (electronic throttle) system. It deals with the MAF sensor and/or reprogramming the ECU with an updated drive by wire program. Check out the link above for all TSB's...

 

It applies to the 6sp as well. just had mine done

 

what about a 2k auto, are they any TSB that are just blantant for a 2K that I should go check. Just bought one about a month ago and i have 33K on it and I want to make sure I get all the warranty work done before the 3 year/36k warranty. thanks

 

The link in my earlier post contains almost all TSB's for the 5th gen. That's defintely a link everyone should have in their favorites!...
