#355 of 616 Re: CVT Jerking / Vibration [goatsucker] by scion111 May 14, 2008 (5:53 am)
Replying to: goatsucker (May 13, 2008 9:13 pm) Mine feels more like something is 'rumbling' underneath you. Almost seems like there is a balance problem or a bad tire, rim, etc. It is definitely much more noticeable on a freshly paved, smooth highway. I drive a 8 mile stretch almost everyday where the road is very flat. At all speeds it feels like there is a shaking going on - when lightly gripping the steering wheel I can see my arm shaking ever so slightly. I don't think (at I hope) it has anything to do with the 20" wheels - my dealer said he wouldn't repalce them with 18" since that would make the car different than what's on the sticker.(?). Not very cooperative. I've got a file open with Nissan and will insist on new tires/rims after I get to 1000 miles. Let me know how you make out. Other than this problem I think it's a great vehicle.

#356 of 616 Researching the SLAWD Murano by pucks10 May 14, 2008 (6:17 am)
In reading posts about the 09 Murano SL on the edmunds site, I noticed all positive reviews for that particular vehicle, and one person even said their's drove like a BMW 328 ! C'mon, really? Now I think some Nissan salespeople with down -time go and post all favorable comments. Almost every comment is positive. Thanks to this community and these posts above, I will definitely do a more thorough test drive soon. Replies to this message: mbe350nissan09 (May 14, 2008 7:46 am)

Replying to: pucks10 (May 14, 2008 6:17 am) Pucks 10 I would make sure you drive it on an open road make sure you don't have any jerking at speeds between 40 - 50 MPH I have been dealing with this jerking since I got the Murano 1600 miles ago. I am ready to trade it in!! I called the dealer today and they told me to run 2 more tanks of 93 oct. gas in it, and then let them know what is going on. I told them "NO" it is not the gas! I need to call tomorrow and make an appt with Service manager! If I did not have this jerking it would be GREAT! I like everything about it. Good Luck!

Replying to: scion111 (May 14, 2008 5:53 am) Is it even possible to do such a wheel replacement ? Aside from cost and warranty issues. IM assuming their argument about being different from sticker has something todo with the warranty.   Im suggesting it just as an experiment to at very least rule out the wheels conclusively.   Something else to consider is that the Murano comes with all all season tires. Maybe smoother tires are worth a try.   I realize its at least labor for the dealer, so they will be reluctant. Maybe try and sell it to them as just an experiment.   Good luck!
#359 of 616 Lease switch 2007 to 2009 by eric312 May 15, 2008 (8:26 pm)
Today I got a call from my dealer who said that they have a special lease termination program for 2007 Murano(i am on my 6 months out of 39) and that if i end my lease they will give me $1000 off the new lease on 2009.   Sounds strange that dealer is offering such a deal. Are there some problems with 2007s and they are trying to bring them back? Are 2009 not selling at all?    Any guesses.
#360 of 616 Clock Recall by bmr123 May 17, 2008 (6:40 am)
The clock was recalled to get a software update on the 09 murano. Supposedly its unable to keep the time correctly.
#361 of 616 Re: CVT Jerking / Vibration [ukko] by hapeeowner May 18, 2008 (8:47 am)
Replying to: ukko (May 10, 2008 5:40 am) I have had my 09 SL for about a month, have put 1000 miles on it and have not experienced any of the problems I am reading about here. This is my first CVT car and the dealer told me I would have to get use to the CVT as it is different from any other transmission I have ever driven with. They also advised that I "feather" the gas peddle at the start (taking off from a stop) which I believe makes a big difference over the "push the peddle to the floor" method I am use to.   Overall, I am extremely pleased with my Murano. I have every option except the Nav package and I think that makes the only diff between the LE and mine being the wood grain interior (looks cheap to me) and the location of the iPod connection.

Replying to: scion111 (May 13, 2008 5:27 pm) It seems like all of the vibration posts talk about Toyo tires. I posted that I have had my car about a month without experiencing what others are but my car came with Goodyear tires. Of course, mine is an SL and has 18" tires so that may be why.
#363 of 616 Re: boo hoo [jmpage2] by reddevil4 May 25, 2008 (8:53 pm)
Replying to: jmpage2 (Nov 16, 2007 9:24 am) I have to agree with you, I purchased the 2009 Murano SL (AWD) model with Navigation System, Bluetooth, Dual Moonroof, Backup Camera, and Leather Interior with heated seats for $35,000. I feel that it was worth it I love the way it handles and is rated high for its safety features. I also like the wide vision that the headlights give you, you can see all the lanes and shoulder without blinding on coming cars. I espesually like the Navigation System because not only the visual it talks the commands out so you can watch the road and it bongs when its time to turn. And lastly the 3.5 V6 engine and CVT transmission are a great combination.
