1992 Nissan Stanza XE review from North America
"Very reliable vehicle!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing has gone wrong with the car in two years.
Routinely replaced front brake pads.
:) Wiper blades? Oil, filter, put front like new tires.
General comments?
Car served extremely well. At a mileage of 200000 miles everything was original. It started with half of the turn. Of course need to mention I had kept it tuned up, which means I just put new wires, plugs, distributor cap and rotor.
The engine had one defect ever since I bought it, something was knocking in it, which might have been rocker arms, or something in that nature. However, I did not do anything about it and it lasted just perfectly fine for 2 years and 40000 miles. I took it around the country several time, but it finally broke on the way back from Canada. I regret I did not take care of that knock.
Otherwise majestic car, great job of engineering and assembling.
I have a low miles Nissan Altima now, which reminds me of that sweet Stanza. :) It is a very memorable car to me, which helped me with my girlfriend. :)
