2000 Nissan Maxima GLE review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
(2000 Nissan Maxima GLE) Check Engine light on (124,000 miles). Auto Zone (free Diag test) Code P1320 came up. Took it to Nissan service So they could charge me $90.00 to tell me which coil needed to be replaced, instead they wanted to replace all six. I'm a female, they are trying to pull one over on me.. I tell them ONE.. finally I get the code from Nissan (which I had to pay $90 for) Code P0304 Cyl 4 Misfire and Code P0325 Knock Sen/circ-B1. Back to Auto Zone get a Coil for $70.00. P0304 is front and center, very easy to get too (once cover is off) Nissan service wanted to charge me $115.00 per coil x6= $696.00 plus a 3hr labor charge @ $90.00hr that's a total of $1000.00 Not to mention Nissan told me I had a oil leak, I said there is no oil in the driveway, Nissan replied well it's a small leak... NISSAN SERVICE SUCKS!!
AUTO ZONE is the way to go, anybody can change these coils. 3 in the front easy, the ones in the back a little more difficult to reach, but you can do it plus it saves you money.
