#2389 of 2485 Re: 06 Altima "Rushing Water Noise - Passenger Side" [bear26] by catluver Feb 14, 2009 (12:00 pm)
Replying to: bear26 (Apr 28, 2007 5:56 pm) I, too, am having the same problem with my 2003 Altima 3.5. I have taken it to the dealership and they said it is normal. However, it only started after having coolant flushed and they have purged the system twice to remove any air in there. I also had them check into whether the tube is clogged or not. They said the only way to stop this is to slow down the amount of water going into heater box with a filter. Unsure if this is the way to go but I'm going to call nissan and see what they have to say. I don't feel that this is normal.

Replying to: bear26 (May 06, 2007 10:59 am) Wondering if your rushing water noise has been resolved after you had your radiator bled or not. I have a 2003 altima 3.5 and it just started making this sound after having coolant flushed in dec 2008. the dealership has vacuum the air out twice and still the noise. just wanted to know if i should have radiator bled and refilled and noise will go away.

Replying to: catluver (Feb 14, 2009 12:07 pm) Hi, the rushing water noise went away after they bled out the radiator. I would suggest trying this as it seemed to be a fairly common problem according to what I heard. Thanks Replies to this message: elnino2783 (Feb 15, 2009 8:45 pm)

Replying to: bear26 (Feb 14, 2009 1:55 pm) My 2005 Altima 3.5 SE had the same bubbling water noise. I read a little about the problem and found out it was probably air in the coolant. I just topped it off and I haven't heard the noise since. I'm currently at 47,000 miles and topped it off over 20,000 miles ago. Bought the car at 22,000 miles.
#2393 of 2485 Check your Altima's VIN #,at least for 2005 by elnino2783 Feb 15, 2009 (8:57 pm)
This review of the 2005 Altima mentions that at the time they started manufacturing it there were two plants making it, one being a mature plant with experienced workers, the second being a brand new plant that was experiencing growing pains and having quality issues, at least in the beginning.   Anyways the way to tell if your Altima was made in the good plant is if the 11th position in your VIN # is a C or an N.   N is for Canton, Mississippi which is the type of 04/05 Altima you probably don't want as they had problems when they first opened . C is for Smyrna (Nashville), Tennessee which represents an Altima that will most likely have very few quality problems. This plant had been in operation since 1992.   This is where I got my info, and I haven't looked any more into it, but it seemed reputable enough: http://www.texas-cars-and-dealerships.com/nissanaltima2005.html

Replying to: write2diaz (Feb 02, 2009 12:46 am) THIS IS A REPLY TO WRITE2DIAZ remarks on his 05 altima   I have the same problem with the sound coming from the front wheels.i have 18 inch rims and new tires on all of them. I have an 05 altima v6.if you also have 18s then it solves both our problems.if not then im hoping its nothing major for the sake of both of us.   And In terms of the sound that you hear coming from the ac, i believe its a leaking hose.That what the nissan dealer told me.I have the same problem.dealer estimated $599 to repair. Damn stealerships!   And does any one know why when i put my car from park to drive it jerks? done a transmission flush but its still the same.Can it be the filter?
#2395 of 2485 Loss of dashboard lights by smartdesserts Feb 22, 2009 (5:27 pm)
My 2003 3.5 Altima has a problem. When I exited from the vehicle and turned off the ignition, the fog lights remained on and the chiming was coming from the dash when I removed the key. I made sure all the lights were in the off position but the fog lights stayed on. I also noticed when I turned the engine back on, the dashboard light by the spedometer and tachometer wasn't lighting up. Any ideas? Replies to this message: jtap0916 (Jul 03, 2009 1:43 am)
#2396 of 2485 Problem breathing inside the car by marie2535 Mar 02, 2009 (11:57 am)
We start being sick in our Altima 6 month ago. Chess pain and raw throat, but no smell in the car. We’ve been to 4 different mechanics. Doctor's agree with us that something is irritating lungs, Right now we do not know what the problem is, we do know something is affecting our lungs, it is something that takes time to take effect, it is not happening over night. We got the car tested for Carbon monoxide, it was negative. We don’t know what to do anymore; anyone experienced that kind of issues??

Replying to: marie2535 (Mar 02, 2009 11:57 am) Do you have another car to drive for a week or get a rental and see if things clear up. Then go back to the Altima and see if symptoms return. See if there is a freon leak. Find a person who can take an air sample of your car on the inside while running and maybe with the AC on then off. It could be off-gassing from the fabric or carpet flooring. You could also google your problem and see what comes up.   Good Luck,   Ken
