#2364 of 2486 2003 Nissan Altima-No Heat and Overheating by whitmada Jan 26, 2009 (7:21 pm)
Car is overheating and will not produce hot air when car's heat is on. Problem has happened on two other occasions over the past year for which repairs were made. First time we took to dealership....they refilled the coolant and replaced rear brakes....they wanted to replace a purge control canister but we opted not too. Second time car died on highway....dealership replaced thermostat, radiator cap, and bleed system. Now it seems we are back to the same problems. What should I do? Replace the purge control canister....would like to try to do myself. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Replies to this message: skinsfan3 (Jan 27, 2009 6:01 pm)
#2365 of 2486 Smoking Or Not! by quicksilva Jan 26, 2009 (9:22 pm)
I have a 2005 Nissan Altima 3.5 with a VQde35 engine. It blew a puff of white smoke once when new and, I paid it no mind but, since then it has done this about six times. Once recently after changing oil. The dealer could find no problem. I note smoke also when getting into it during acelleration but, only at first. The car has had regular oil changes. What could this be? Replies to this message: jd10013 (Jan 27, 2009 4:08 pm)

#2367 of 2486 Sun Roof Noise by quicksilva Jan 26, 2009 (9:34 pm)
I have an aggravating roof rattle coming from the plastic cross member above the sunroof. Is it possible to cut this plastic off w/o causing any problems? It seems to be useless.
#2368 of 2486 Cabin filter by efitzgerald Jan 27, 2009 (11:07 am)
Can anyone tell me if its easy or not to attempt changing my cabin filter on my 2007 Nissan Altima 2.5 lt ? I understand it thru the glove compartment. Replies to this message: quicksilva (Jan 27, 2009 8:59 pm)

Replying to: quicksilva (Jan 26, 2009 9:22 pm) most of the time white smoke is caused by antifreeze getting burned in the cylinders.

Replying to: whitmada (Jan 26, 2009 7:21 pm) I cannot imagine that the brakes have anything to do with this problem. My guess is that you have a bad radiator. Did you have enough anti-freeze and was it exposed to extremely cold weather? It may pay to check to see if the hoses are connected tightly. Maybe they are leaking?

Replying to: efitzgerald (Jan 27, 2009 11:07 am) It is located behind the glove box and, it is really easy. Remove the door look for the compartment housing with a few screws. It should not need to be changed until 30,000.00 miles unless you live in a dusty envoirnment.
#2373 of 2486 Altima Transmission Let's Loose by Brentl23 Jan 28, 2009 (10:08 am)
I don't know if this paints a perfect picture, but my new 2009 Altima 2.5 SL feels like it is letting loose at slow speeds when coming to a stop. At less than 15 mph when braking to a stop, the transmission lets out of gear and I need to brake a bit more than prior to the slippage. Not a big problem, but this is more pronounced on this car than any other I have ever driven. Does anyone else experience this?
