#2099 of 2128 Re: Stepped on gas, but it just rev'd then jerked [funkmeister] by exploder750 Sep 14, 2006 (6:36 pm)
Replying to: funkmeister (Sep 11, 2006 3:52 pm) We had the same problem with our '04. Luckily thru this website I knew what the problem was right away. We shut it off, re-started, and it was fine. Took it to the dealer with copy of the TSB in hand, and they were very forthright, replacing the TCM under warranty. If this problem happens again, shut it off ASAP and re-start. Not doing this and driving as is can be very hard on the transmission.

Replying to: plashenick (Aug 31, 2006 4:27 pm) We have this problem for both doors in our Q04 S van - both sliding doors have inner plastic pannels coming off, so dealer (after several times of fixing it in place) decided to replace the whole inner pannels. Hopefully, we are still under warranty coverage. When we first noted this problem, dealer told us it is became common problem for 2004 Quests with more than 50 000 mileage.

Replying to: garycox (Sep 11, 2006 6:15 am) We also received it from our dealer, but later, after my husband argued with manager, they accepted 60,000 miles as our warranty. I remember, we received extended warranty letter from Nissan about 60,000 miles.

Replying to: bmis (Sep 12, 2006 9:01 am) Would that be TSM 04144?
#2103 of 2128 New Problem....the Quest clock is going fast by cirruss Oct 04, 2006 (7:44 am)
My 2004 Quest is mainly driven by my wife and when I do get to drive it, I notice the clock is couple minutes fast. At first I blamed her for setting the clock fast, but she told me she didn't. Right now, it's adding 2-3 minutes a month, and it's just annoying because I like my clocks to be right. What's the purpose of having a clock in the car if it can't keep time!!!! Anyone else have noticed this problem.   I am taking it in tomorrow and the the dealer said they will have to diagnose it....WHAT....as if the mechanic has an atomic clock in their tool box to reference my clock to it!!

Replying to: cirruss (Oct 04, 2006 7:44 am) Our Quest clock does the same thing -- inexcusable, given the accuracy of clocks in every other vehicle I know of. When I brought it in for warranty service, Nissan claimed that it was working-as-designed: 4 minutes fast per month is within spec. Our clock drifts about 2 minutes fast per month. Please let me know if you have better luck. Replies to this message: bendupre (Oct 04, 2006 6:25 pm) garycox (Oct 17, 2006 6:30 am) f1236089 (Oct 22, 2006 6:04 pm)

Replying to: july2004quest (Oct 04, 2006 8:54 am) That's the limit of the technology. You may not know it but quartz clocks (all clocks you don't wind are based on quartz ocillators) are sensitive to temperature. I bet the problem probably gets worse when the car is parked in the sun a lot.   I haven't seen a portable cesium clock yet, but you can get one for your home that resets itself several times daily on a radio signal from the atomic clock in Colorado.   But: does anybody really know what time it is? We've all got time enough to cry... all got time enough to die...   Ben

Replying to: cirruss (Oct 04, 2006 7:44 am) I think someone discussed this problem a while back. It's a common problem with the Quests.   The thing you have to consider is do you want them ripping open the dash to replace the clock that will still run fast? Or can you live with arriving at your destination 2-3 minutes ahead of time?
#2107 of 2128 Engine Air Filter by exploder750 Oct 05, 2006 (4:23 pm)
I've noticed that the ngine air filter on our '04 gets dirty unusually fast. Our driving conditions are not dirty at all. At the rate it gets dirty, I figure it would need replacement on a quarterly basis. At $10 a pop from the dealer for an air filter, I've decided to try the Fram Air Hog ($43). Cleaning this filter 4 times a year will have it paid for itself in just over a year. We'll see if this filter affects gas mileage.   Has anyone else observed this issue with their engine air filter, especially those who are getting poor gas mileage?

Well went to the dealer today, and the service guy first said they need couple hours to diagnose. After waiting for half an hour, the service advisor told me the mechanic set the clock to their "SYSTEM" clock and ask that I come back in 2 weeks and see how much it changed. If it's outside the Nissan spec, then they will replace the clock. I will be back in 2 weeks and see what they have to say.
