Steering Question by cmiddl1

I recently purchased a 2003 Maxima SE, and the steering is not as "tight" as my 1996 SE. I can make smaller turns with the 96 then the 03; is the turning radius larger in the 2003 SE or is there a problem with the sterring colum on this car?

1997 nissan maxima- sensor problem? by jennifervanmat

I have a 1997 Nissan Maxima SE. I replaced the alternator and battery less than a year ago. On Monday as I was driving home the brake light and the battery light came on. It went off in about 20 seconds and the car did not seem to run any different. Then it happened again twice this morning. Again, no difference in the way the car starts or runs. Anyone have an idea on what this would be??

I have a 95 Nissan Maxima. Recently my airbag sensor has came on and basically it stays on. It flickers sometimes but always remains in my sight. Why is this on and what can I do to turn it off?

I have the 1997 Maxima with the problem posted above. It turned out to be a faulty diode in my alternator. Get your battery tested and if it is running low voltage you probably need to have your alternator replaced.

I don't know your mechanical abilities or patience level, but you'll definitely want to have both to replace that knock sensor. The fastest way to do it is to pull the intake plenums and all of the top of the motor since the knock sensor sits in the "V" up top. That's a lot of screws and gaskets. It's possible to do it w/out removing all of that, but it's a lot more tedious. You'll definitely want a flex-shaft or angle shaft for your ratchet.

I drove the '07 CVT to satisfy my own curiosity when they first hit the showroom. It was fresh off the truck with the protective white plastic still stuck all over it. The seat-of-the-pants meter said it was slower than an '87 Sentra. Watching the speedo, however, indicated that it accelerating pretty well. The place where I was forced to do the test drive limited how hard I could get on it. It was smooth as the commercials say, but it felt unexciting to me. The interior on the '07 is so much nicer to me than the '04-'06's though. I mean WAY nicer. If the one I was driving had more than .7 miles on it, and had been broken in, it may have felt stronger. I might go find a used '07 w/more than 10k mi on it and test drive that, then buy a new one if I like the perfermance of the broken-in used one.

2007 Maxima engine breaking by lcm8
Mar 16, 2007 (10:09 am)

My 2007 Maxima exhibits significant engine breaking when I take my foot off the gas at speeds of about 40 or less. Feels a little like driving in neutral. It will pull back for a few seconds and then all of a sudden feel like it is back in normal mode, and almost lurches a little sometimes. Has anyone else expereinced this? I like the CVT in general, but this is annoying. Not sure if this is just a function of the CVT or if I should have it checked out.
