Replying to: lauris (Sep 13, 2008 6:43 pm) You should change all the coils. Also, change the air flow sensor depending on the unit the computer may need to be updated. Replies to this message: lauris (Sep 15, 2008 1:49 pm) nemesis04 (Sep 15, 2008 2:50 pm)

Replying to: nemesis04 (Sep 15, 2008 1:01 pm) Thanks! Having not looked at the manual, is the air flow sensor easy to change?   Is this common for most Maxima's with these miles (110,000)?   Do other makes, such as Honda and Toyota, require this amount of maintenance? Curious. Replies to this message: nemesis04 (Sep 15, 2008 2:50 pm)

Replying to: lauris (Sep 15, 2008 1:49 pm) They are pretty easy to change. When my 2001 Maxima hit 100k I changed all the coils and the air flow sensor because the check light kept on coming on. After the change, the car had its old spunk back and the light never came back on again.

I have a 2005 Nissan Maxima that the A/C blower fan quit working. All fuses are ok and the fan switch shows the fan speed advancing but no air flow. Any help with whats wrong? Replies to this message: Mr_Shiftright (Sep 22, 2008 7:37 am)

Replying to: tmb5894 (Sep 21, 2008 2:34 pm) The fan might be controlled by a relay. You might check your owner's manual to identify which relay this is. If you are clever with electrics you might pop the switch out and by-pass it and see what happens.   You might also try this with the engine off-- perhaps the fan is only working on low speed and you can't hear it with the car running. That would indicate then that the resistor controlling fan speed is the problem.

Replying to: oceanblue (Dec 26, 2000 2:16 pm) Oceanblue, I think i have the same problem with my Maxima ' 97. After stopping on a traffic light, when light changes to green and I take my foot from the brake and put it on gas the car either shuts down or it feels like it doesn’t want to go on the first gear, no matter how hard I push the pedal. If it shuts down, it usually restarts in about 20 seconds. It happens few times a day, not all the time. Mechanics are unable to determine the problem and i already spent $500 on same things you did. Don't know what to do anymore. Replies to this message: obyone (Oct 01, 2008 12:12 pm) galka5 (Oct 01, 2008 12:20 pm)

Replying to: galka5 (Oct 01, 2008 7:37 am) I had a similar problem with my 98 SE. When accelerating from a stop position, the car would jerk and not want to go. It was almost the same feeling as if the clutch was let out too fast on a manual transmission. My car was diagnosed by our mechanic as needing a new mass air flow sensor. This was replaced (total cost was around $450-$500) and the issue hasn't occurred since.   Good luck.
