I bought a used 2004 Murano with 53K miles 6 monthes ago I have now 63K miles Last month I replaced the battery and door actuator. On Monday noon the car did not start. Engine cranks but it doesn’t start. I had the car towed to Goodyear. The mechanics had worked on all my cars and are trsuwordy. They couldn’t figure it out. They tried different spark plugs and remove the catalytic converter. Engine compression is good No computer error codes. They can start the car with 2 spark plus in. If they covet the spark plugs or add another plug in doesn’t start. They suspected a computer module but cannot get one with the option to return it. They had it towed to Nissan. The dealer did the same tests and is at a loss. Their mechanic worked on it for 2 days and call Nissan CA. They told him that they cannot help him. The dealer said that he cannot just replace the main compute since he is not allowed to put it back in stock. They called other Nissan dealers to see if they have a 2004 Murano to “borrow” the computer and try it No one has one in the Atlanta area He doesn’t think it is the computer since there are no error codes. The only error code is CVT related and he thinks that the error has nothing to do with the problem, since the engine has to run in order to test the CVT. They said that they don’t know what to do! They want to try replacing the computer (at a $1000 cost to me) weather it resolves the issue or not. If it doesn’t work, he wants to try to put in a new harness at a $3600 cost and if it doesn’t help a new engine. They said that they had never seen this problem. They can start the car with 2 spark plugs, but covering the spark plugs or adding another one and the engine dies. It looks like back pressure but he removed the catalytic convertor. Any suggestions ? |

I went in for an oil change and there was a recall for the in-take valve. I had it replaced. Has anyone heard about it or have this done?
