My friend, the Muranophile, said that all LE's come with performance tires that wear out fast. I had this problem with other higher end cars and DO NOT wanna do this again. That being said, I want a Murano with leather, roof but not necessarily the NAV and/or DVD. Is the tire thingie true? And if so what are my alternatives?

Replying to: scion111 (May 14, 2008 5:53 am) I test drove a new 2009 SL and the ride was sensational. Then I went to buy a new LE and there was a vibration throughout the vehicle. I could feel it in the floor, on the steering wheel and in the seat. It occurred at all speeds and during acceleration or coasting. I really want this particular car and color and this is the only one around within 100 miles that we checked. Anyone knowing how to solve this problem please let me know. Thank you.

I purchased my 09 SL AWD in Sept 08. I noticed after a few weeks that the engine would make a squealing noise when I was accelerating lightly and the RPM was between 1,000 and 2,000. I just took it in finally to have it looked at on May 4th because it was really starting to bother me. The dealership test drove other 09's and claimed it was a normal sound from what they could tell. I filed a complaint with Nissan's consumer affairs and was told the same from them...its normal. Is anyone else having this problem? I find it completely irritating that I am being told a squealing engine on a brand new car is normal??

Replying to: ronswm (May 06, 2009 3:41 pm) In our case, the tires on the 09 LE aren't bad now yet not perfect. The balance is perfect yet the tires are semi-crap and aren't true - as in they were borderline bad in regards to "road force" measurements on a Hunter balancer. Will wait to install something better in the future. |

Replying to: 09muranoslawd (May 12, 2009 5:15 pm) If you are referring to the high pitch squeal/whistle there is a Nissan Service Bulletin out for this exact noise. Our LE has the same - just haven't made it back in to have it fixed. Wife doesn't notice it either - just me with the window down etc.... See below, your Nissan Service Dept probably doesn't even know about it because they are clueless like all other Nissan dealerships.. Many have had the procedure performed and no more whistle!! Good luck TSB# NTB08104 For the record, the throttle body does NOT have to be replaced. Here is the fix description...straight from Nissan: NTB08104 IF YOU CONFIRM A whistle noise coming from the engine during light acceleration, ACTIONS Unbolt but do not remove the electric throttle control actuator. Replace the actuator gasket. Reposition the actuator on the manifold and secure following the instructions in this Service Procedure. NOTE: The repair of this issue, if it should occur, is the repositioning of the actuator not the replacement of the gasket. The gasket is replaced because the actuator is being unbolted from the manifold. |
