I'm sorry to here that you are having so much trouble with your Murano SL FWD. You said that you bought it in late June and the dealer couldn't find anything wrong and here we are in December six months later are you still having problems? I have the 2009 Murano SL AWD that I bought in April and so far I haven't had any problems and hope I don't have any. I guess fortunately that your Murano is covered under warranty but it has to be mind bogeling to keep having problems even being covered under warranty. Hopefully by now six months later they have found the source of your problems or replaced them and you are enjoying your Murano.

Don't have any of those problems but think I can help on the rolling in park. When you brake to park keep the car in gear and firmly apply the parking brake. Depending on the slope of your parking spot[drive or reverse], ease up slightly on the brake pedal until the car rests on the parking brake then put in park and shut it off. All cars I drive coast a bit when parked without properly engaging the parking brake.

Hi, sorry to hear you are having problems. I purchased my 09 murano in may of this year. What I noticed is the ABS light came on when the weather got colder and had to put air in the tires (all of them) then the light went out. What I really don't like as you said, is how bad the car rolls. If I park on a downslope I have to use my left foot at the same time I'm accelerating so it doesn't continue to roll. I like the ride it's smooth, but don't always like the sound of the engine when you accelerate.

You should use your parking brake at all times. 1st for safety and 2nd because it keeps the mechanism for engaging it from binding up after long periods of unuse. Even on level ground, by engaging the parking brake then allowing the car to creep forward to the brake, then putting it into park , you actually take stress off the transmission and drive line --- so I've been told. Give it a try and check back.

I never have the od off so I can't say. It does rev to the limit when I start it for a second, but that's normal.

After Market iPod Kit for 2009 Murano LS?

The only thing I see missing from the LS model (that I would want) is the iPod connector kit. (and maybe the alarm system) Has anyone found an aftermarket option to get control of iPod on Nav screen / steering wheel? Even if it has to be drilled through the glove box?
Any information would be appreciated. It's the same Nav system in both (with 9.3GB HDD, etc.) Shouldn't it have the same plugs / ports on the back?

There is a discussion about this going on at:
http://forums.nicoclub.com/zerothread/369806-09-sl-murano-real-story-for-ipod-co- nnections
I think you are right, and I have found in the 2009 Murano Service Manual description of an "IPOD Adapter" (drawing shows a small box) located in the center console just forward of the shifter. I have not had the guts to start taking apart the console on my wife's brand new Murano to see if there are connectors for that adapter there. Yet...

Don't have an iPod but saw a universal adapter on motorweek tv show. Looks like what you are looking for. Go to the website and click on auto basics then gear. Costs $80 -- don't know if it is what you want. called soundgate core.
