We just bought a 2008 2.5 SL which came with manufacturer sunroof and defector. After taking delivery of the vehicle we noticed that driving on the highway over 60 MPH there is a hissing noise coming from the sunroof area. Sliding the cover shut (so you cannot see out) helps but still apparent. We took the car back and they kept it for a day. They claimed it was a mirror producing the noise but on the way home it still was coming from the sunroof. The car is going back today and we hope they will repair it. I was hoping to know if there are any known issues with the current model Altima and sunroof. I did a search and could not find one. Thanks! George

It will pop off and you can wiggle it free. Then there are just 3 bolts exposed to unscrew and the whole side mirror comes off. Really simple. |

I have an 06 Altima purchased new in Sept 2006. I brought the front tire feathering issue to the Dealer's attention in Feb 2007 and they re-aligned the car under warranty at that time ....  2200 miles. In Sept 2007 the Dealer re-aligned the car again under warranty and rotated the tires. In Dec 2007 the Dealer once again re-aligned the car and rotated the tires.. Well, here I am once again with the same issue only more pronounced since I now has 23K miles on the car. The tires are now making some noise. Has anyone experienced this problem? The tires look like new but the feathering is pronounced. I am very annoyed that I may have to replace these tires so soon. Sounds like the issue is with the tires and not the mechanical aspect of the car. Please advise. Thanks!

Hi , i would like to know if there's a fuse for the cruise control since the set light blink and the manual say that if the set light blinks it mean a malfunction and the car has to be brought to a nissan dealer so i would like to know if there's or not since the dealer asked me 80$ just to check. thanks

Replying to: mtl2 (Jul 22, 2008 3:55 pm) I doubt if it's a fuse as this diagram doesn't even show one: http://aycu03.webshots.com/image/20802/2004006796363378696_rs.jpg So it must be part of another fused circuit. No harm checking all the fuses though. Ask the dealer to apply the diagnostic charge to the total cost of repair. They might do that.
