The EGR valve can be tested with a simple vacuum tool; the 02 is harder to diagnose, but a good mechanic can do it with a sophisticated voltmeter (not a cheapie) and with the car running. He can also put a machine on to sniff the tailpipe to see if you are running richer than normal and therefore possibly damaging the catalytic.

Thanks for all your help. I really appreciate it. I went to AutoZone today and now the only code is the EGR valve. I guess the O2 sensor got better - lol.

My car needs coils and spark plugs at 90000 miles. Where can I buy genuine Nissan parts online and get the ones with the new part number at a low price?

Car Pulls to the Right by og4life

I have a 99 maxima SE and my car has been pulling to the right for some time. I just got a realignment (3rd one in less than two years) and the problem is not solved. Does anyone have any advice? I just bought new tires and the air pressure is right. Would bad struts cause the car to pull? My mechanic said they should be replaced soon.

Would anyone know what the ERT is to replace rear brake pads and rotors for a Maxima?

they should last you 40k+. Though it all depends on type of driving you have and the environment.

03 Maxima idle increase after changing plugs by tb4me
Mar 16, 2008 (8:06 am)

Hi all. I just changed my spark plugs(112000 miles) and the idle increased to about 1000 rpm in park and 850 rpm in gear. I used the ngk original replacement plugs and yes had to remove the upper intake to get to the back ones. Used a new gasket when putting back together too, cleaned the throttle plates and runners with gumout while it was off. The engine seems to run fine however in addition to the idle increase, the check engine light came on a few days later but continues to run good.. I checked for vacume leaks and there are none. Any suggestions before the trip to the dealer?

Check engine light is always associated with emissions. I would go to a auto parts store and have them pull the codes associated with the light rather than try and guess what the problem is.
