1992 Nissan Maxima GXE from North America - Comments

I had to replace several bolts in the exhaust system where the exhaust attached to the engine. They broke and had caused an exhaust leak which was audible. The leak caused the car to fail a state inspection.

I have replaced one window slide (track) for the rear driver's side window.

I had to replace the CV shafts at 210,000 miles as they were making clicking sounds.

The knob which changes the air temperature from hot to cold broke at about 50,000 miles. I use a small screwdriver to change from hot to cold.

I replaced the lower ball joints at about 195,000 miles as they were worn out and had excessive play.

I have replaced both front wheel bearings as they were worn out and making sounds.

I replaced (my friend did it actually) two little components for the back brakes which make them actuate (sorry that I don't know the name of them) at about 236,000 miles.

I have replaced normal things like belts, timing belt, battery, brakes, tires, windshield (two weeks ago for the first time), water pump (180,000 miles because I had the timing belt changed and not because it was defective), spark plugs, wires, and operating fluids.

At almost 240,000 miles, I think its well past due to change the springs and struts.

I am on track to put 300,000 miles on it by the Summer of 2006. I hope it goes to 500,000 miles. We shall see.

DO you have any updates on your ride? Mileage?

Thanks.

Chris.
