2000 Nissan Maxima GLE review from North America
"I want to buy an upgrade!!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Engine light came on. I took it to the mechanic and he hooked it to the computer. Diagnosis - Engine coil. Which one? Don't know, (dealership would have you replace all 6), my mechanic said to drive it til the engine misfired badly. That way the computer will diagnose which engine coil is misfiring and I won't need to replace all 6.
I did this twice. First with coil #6, then coil #2.
The car is again running rough. I imagine #4, don't know.
Did not know this was a problem. I have 170,000 miles on the car.
General comments?
I have 170,000 miles on the car.
There are other mechanical problems, but otherwise, this is a great running car.
