"They needed retooled! At 3250 miles. I'm not happy about that already, but the service manager told me that "rotors these days are made with crappy metal from crappy China". He also said that this problem occurs with all manufacturers."
 
The guy wasn't lying to you. Unless you purchase a vehicle with very high dollar performance brakes/rotors, you are bound to have "warped rotor" issues during your ownership. Some happen right away, some after 10s of thousands of miles. Much of which is caused by braking/driving styles and or driving conditions etc.
 
My wife's 09 Mo seems to be doing great at the 12K mark yet my Acura rotors warped before 5000 miles. Our 4WD Suburban had 90K miles before I even touched the front brakes - and it pulls a 6000lb boat!... You just never know. Many times the rotors will last much longer after machining. The initial miles and braking heat bring out the metal stresses then machining removes the results.
 
Overall, crappy rotors/metal is a true statement and a fact within the industry....

my new 09 murano is on its way! by kemmich
Aug 01, 2009 (2:51 pm)

on its way to my dealership from japan - the only person who will have driven it when i get it is service manager - i'm so excited.
 
silly question, but i got exactly what i wanted: SL, premium pkg, leather pkg, 360 pkg, AWD. tinted bronze with beige leather.
 
paid 33500 and got "excellent" rating for trade in per KBB.
 
i know it's a supply/demand market, and i know it's MOST important that i'm happy (which i am regardless, this is a deal i can manage), but does this sound like a good deal? i was just surprised that i didn't have to haggle more when i said "this is what i'm willing to do" - especially when it was a car "en route" - thoughts?

What was MSRP vs what you paid? If you paid more than invoice, you paid too much.

I have been trying to get an answer. I have been shopping for an LE in Platinum Graphite with Beige leather and no one seems to have it they all have black leather. One dealer said Nissan is not going to offer that combo in 2010 but then he tried to sell me something he already has so I don't know whether or not to believe him. I wish they would expand on the "Simplified exterior and interior color combinations " and say what that really means. My hope is they won't change this but I can't find anywhere that clarifies it further. If anyone has the answer to this I would appreciate it.

2010 Murano Pricing? by mufc4me
Sep 06, 2009 (2:11 pm)

Can anyone guess how much more a 2010 Murano might be compared to a 2009? How have the prices been in the past for each new revision of the Murano? I would by a 2009 version, but color choice is limited so I don't know if it makes sense to get a color I don't want when in a month the 2010 will be out and available in wider color selection. TIA

If color choice is important then wait. Whatever the cost increase, you won't be happy saving a few hundred dollars on a car you dislike. There a several other choices of cars every bit as nice as the murano.Some are thousands less. You could check out 09's and see if any meet your needs. My 09 sl is nice but I could be happy in a number of other vehicles.

The best so far by ukko

We have owned several vehicles over the years. MDX, Pilots, and American cars. The best so far has been the Murano SL. Wow! what a vehicle. What a pleasure it is to daily start the vehicle up and drive it down the road. We have had the 09 for about 4 months now. Life is so nice with good design. Thank you Japanese!!!

2009 Murano Manual Gear Change (Anyone use it??) by lovepub
Sep 16, 2009 (5:28 am)
Reply
I haven't got the car yet...it's coming in 1 week time.
 
I test drove it in "D" mode only....but saw the gear can be shifted/changed manually. Has anyone tried it? Does anyone use it under normal driving? Or is it just a gimmick that people dont really use and dont really need?
 
Was wondering if using it would be more fuel efficient and more fun!?
Any one who had good experience with using it, please give me some insight on how to do it smoothly and how NOT to fuck up the gear....would much appreciate.
 
This question came into mind today....I believe 99% of murano owners dont use that function......but worth a ask.
 
Probably only used during offroad/sand driving?! am i rite?
 
THanks for all inputs!
