Replying to: sandman46 (Feb 16, 2009 4:39 pm) http://www.edmunds.com/maintenance/select.html   That's a link to our Edmunds page on recalls and TSBs. Only thing I've been able to find through more digging is:   Versa (C11) 07-09   NTB07094   * IF YOU CONFIRM: The engine needs to be cranked for a long time (4-10 seconds) before the engine starts. And Fuel system pressure after engine shutoff drops lower than 200 kPa (29 psi) after 30 minutes time. ACTION: Replace the fuel pressure regulator. See the Service Procedure for instructions on replacing the fuel pressure regulator.   Your dealer should be able to pull up that TSB though.

I haven't been to this forum or thread for a long time, and just seen your comments/questions. I will do my best to answer:   I'm really jazzed on a Cube as my next car but NOT if it is a mirror image of the Versa. I'll look to a Fit or new Insight, perhaps.   It depends upon what you mean by "mirror image." Personally, I wouldn't use this phrase when comparing the Cube with the Versa/Tiida.   The Cube that we get will be fitted with a CVT, right?   Correct. 6MT will also be available on the NA Cube.   Different engine or same?   The same engine as the Versa's, you mean? If so, yes. It will be MR18DE.   Cube is made in Japan - is the Versa assembled in NA?   Correct on both fronts. The NA Cube, as all Cubes so far have been, will be assembled at the Oppama Works in Japan, whereas the NA Versa is being assembled at the Aguascalientes facility in Mexico.   Is there a JDM version of the Versa that is different?   Actually, the Versa is the NA version of the Tiida, with the NA market-specific tuning and slightly different sheetmetal.   Are there Renault parts on the NA Versa?   It depends on what you mean by the "Renault" parts. As you know, many Nissan cars use the same global platform as the Renault. The Cube, as with the Versa, uses the B platform which is also used in the Renault Clio III and Modus. This platform is the most widely used in the Nissan cars and was jointly developed by Nissan and Renault. Replies to this message: johnxyz (Feb 23, 2009 7:33 am) jacksan1 (Feb 24, 2009 10:58 am)

Replying to: jacksan1 (Feb 21, 2009 10:12 am) Thanks jacksan1 for the feed back. Great that the Cube is built in Japan.   Just as a follow-up : What are some of the specific QC or reliability weaknesses in the Versa that have been ID'd by the auto media and owners that could pop-up in the Cube if they share the same engine (and whatever other components) that I should weigh in my buying decision?   I realize the Cube isn't even here yet in NA but would still appreciate advice / perspective. Thanks. Replies to this message: jacksan1 (Feb 24, 2009 10:58 am)

Replying to: johnxyz (Feb 23, 2009 7:33 am) The Tiida in Japan has been very reliable. The Versa has been average to somewhat below average in this department. My theory is that the problem lies with the assembly plant (including sourcing of components), and not with the engineering of the car. Aguascalientes, where the Versa is being built, does have an unfortunate record of producing poorly built Nissans in the past. If my theory holds, then the Cube, that is being built in Japan, should be just fine as far as the reliability is concerned.
