OK, I have owned my 01 Sentra since 2003 (bought it second hand in perfect condition). I have been fortunate enough not to have any major issues with the vehicle, except for the brakes sticking after I parked it for 4 months, and the damn plastic tip of the dipstick broke off, Murphy's Law - I was just heading out for vacation. I have taken such good care of this car, always to the dealership, always on time (well, maybe a few exceptions). I took my car in this morning because it was jolting and then the engine light came on. I was told that it was a blown head gasket - a minimum $1000 to fix. Here's the catch, my car only has 76,000km and has never overheated (which they said was the cause). I consulted outside Nissan and every single mechanic I spoke with was astounded. I have phoned Nissan Canada, and they said that my car is too far past warranty to cover it. Has anyone had ANY luck with the corporate side in them paying for problems outside of warranty? And has anyone encountered such a problem? Please help!!

I installed a cold air intake on a 04 1.8 sentra. it ran great for a day then as i was getting on the highway and was hard on the gas the car felt like it stalled. I pulled over and it was idling ruff. and when i hit the gas the rpm go to a certain spot and then it starts to choke out and almost stalls. Were do i start and what do i do. Acts like there is a rev limiter on the motor now!

Hi, all... Anyone out there know of a website with the 4-1-1 on the 2008 versions of the Sentra? I'm very much interested in learning what Nissan has in store for this machine in terms of features and improvements, if any. Please inform... Many thanx! Peace<-  --

Replying to: shutts (Sep 09, 2006 2:05 pm) Fan speeds: only very high speed works :: How did you resolve this ? My mechanic says part alone would cost $400, He tried changing the knob and that didnt help. Windows wont go up :: not consulted mechanic yet, First it happened to front passenger window and now driver side is gone too

Replying to: gxe2001 (Jun 18, 2007 9:37 am) Only high speed fan working usually means that the speed limiting resistor is blown. It is located at the very corner of the front passenger compartment. You'd need to go under the glove box and find a large bolt head. Unscrew it and extract large PCB. One of traces will be burned. I just put a solder across it and it works already for 2 years. So, it did not cost me $400. May be $.10 for solder itself As for windows I'd recommend to lubricate mechanism in the doors and put special silicon around the rubber to prevent sticking and friction
