How much would it cost to paint a Nissan?

How much would it cost me to paint a 2002 Nissan Altima black. It has over 180000 miles on it and is in decent condition. It's a small 4 door sedan|||Mileage has nothing to do with it. If the origanal paint is flaking due to weather. The paint must be completely removed. This is done with chemicals. Stripping the old paint off, cost about $300.00. Reprimed. And repainted. If not. Then, over a period of time, the bad paint will eventually damage the New Paint job. The whole process will cost anywhere from $900.00 to $1,300.00. Depending on the Quality of the Paint Job that you want. Best to get an estimate from two or three Body Shops. I know! Been there and done that.|||A proper color change with sanding and body work good prep will be thousands of dollars. Black shiny cars show all body damage and if you want black pay the money to get the good job done. Cheap Painters can do a lousy job around 250 to 300 dollars.

-cheaper to repair


-plenty of parts

-roomier


-V8 offered


-more towing capacity|||1200 hits in YA for Ford explorer.

But, if you buy a used vehicle, you may save a few dollare by buying a Ford.|||Japanese or American, go figure.|||Honestly I don't think either of those are particularly stellar choices in the midsize SUV market. The pathfinder probably is the better of the two though, much less likely to flip on its roof if you lose a tire for example. The explorer I do believe has a size advantage though. I'd look at a Toyota 4runner though, same general type of truck, better reliability.

If you bought the car and the button you press doesn't open or turn on or start anything than, more than likely the option button has not been programmed to anything.

How much torque should be applied to the flex plate bolts on a 1988 Nissan Sentra?

My 1988 Nissan Sentra keeps breaking flex plates. What could be causing this? I have a new flex plate, torque converter and transmission I am installing in the car in the hopes that this will resolve the issue. But I need to know how much torque i should use installing the flex plate%26gt;|||Buy a manual or ask a garage that has a manual for the torque specs. If it keeps breaking the flex plate my best guess is you are missing a dowel pin that locates the engine/trans assembly at true center. You may have one pin missing, or both. Without one or both pins the crankshaft and torque converter are not in perfect alignment causing the plate to fail. Did the old converter have a trashed bushing in the hub? If the bushing was severely worn, or the stator on the trans shows significant wear you are probably missing a dowel pin. If the engine was changed make sure there is no pilot bearing/bushing from a standard trans in the back of the crankshaft.

If it is all orange L.E.D's, then you DONT have Navigation.





If you have a color screen, then you might possibly have a new Murano with or without Navigation.





The only way to tell if you have Navigation is whenever you start the vehicle up, if there is a Warning "Do not operate Navigation while Driving".....then yes you have Navigation. And should have a MAP button. Press that or DEST to enter in your destination.





From the sound of things, i really doubt you have the Navigation but rather just the standard 7" screen that displays Navigation.

If your mirror is a different color than it needs to be painted. You might be able to find a mirror in a junk yard that is already painted but that is rare.





I would buy the mirror and then take it to an automotive paint store to have the paint matched. Ask the person at the store if he knows anyone who could paint it in their spare time. Lots of people that work at paint stores do some paint work on the side. You could probably get it painted much cheaper than if you took it to a bodyshop.|||See up an eBay search for the mirror in the color you want. I found a pair for my Accord already color matched - luckily because my daughter broke the other one within a day of replacing the drivers side mirror.

Does Nissan Extended Warranty cover a catalytic converter if the warranty excluded exhaust systems ?

I have an Extended Warranty from Nissan (100K miles "bumper to bumper"). It says that it covers everything unless the part/system is listed under the "What is Excluded" section.





I have been told that I need a new catalytic converter. That part is not specifically excluded from extended warranty coverage, but the exhaust system is.





So my question is, does the exclusion of the exhaust system mean that the converter is also excluded ?|||dint think so


the catalytic converter is an emissions part,


the exhaust is an outlet for the fumes to go to....





they are two totally different parts


talk to your dealer, also depends on the mileage of the car


it shouldn't go out within at least 3-4 years.... if that


i had the same one on for at least 4 years before mine went bad


but there should be a number on the warranty information, call that number|||The catalytic converter is part of the exhaust system so it would actually be specifically excluded. What kind of "bumper to bumper" warranty excludes exhaust? As you're figuring out, there are some costly parts down there.





Anyway, here's the catch. Catalytic converters are required by law (in the USA) to be covered by the original vehicle manufacturer for 8 years or 80,000 miles. So, if you fall in that category it's covered by your regular Nissan warranty--head to the dealer.





Kyle must have his part names confused, the "cat" most certainly is part of the exhaust system--everything from the headers to the muffler tip is the "exhaust system."|||Yes.

Would it be safe to drive a nissan versa in the mountains?

This Thursday I will be making a day trip from Murfreesboro to Chattanooga and will be renting a car.


I would like to get one nice and easy on gas and was thinking of renting a Nissan Versa, I need to know if it would be a good and safe care to take, any advise or suggestions? Please and thanks :)|||Driving from M'boro to Chattanooga is hardly driving "in the mountains". It is interstate all the way. Rent the Versa and use the trip as a long test drive.



EDIT -- The climb to Lookout Mountain isn't that bad, just slow and narrow.|||I'm curious as to why you would even ask such a question. Why would it NOT be safe?|||Drive carefully and enjoy your trip.|||Going over Mont Eagle isn't much of a climb and that's the only real hill you have. The Versa has a small engine, but that isn't much work for any car. Just don't try to drive it too fast. You'll know what the car likes for cruising speed by the way it feels within a few miles on the interstate. I see them cruising at 65-70 all of the time on the interstates in REAL mountains.



I noticed you added Lookout Mountain and Rock City. Those are easy tourist roads that bicycles climb. My 18 wheeler can (and has) climbed those hills many times.

When I lock the hubs in my Nissan navara each month, should I also drive in 4H?

Should I also put it in 4wd? 4H?|||4 wheel drive engaged would not hurt to lubricate parts of the transfer case but do so on loose road surfaces. Or a little off roading once in a while.

Are Nissan Pathfinders made from 1990 to present have good gas mileage and are they reliable on highways?

I thinking of buying a nissan pathfinder but i have to know if this car is good for my budget.|||I had a 2003 PF, and it was NOT good! Gas mileage was horrible. I drove mostly on the highways and averaged only around 18 mpg. The engine also used about a quart of oil per 1000 miles. The dealer had it 4 times and could not figure out where the oil was going - there were no leaks and no blue smoke from the tailpipe - quite a mystery! I put 5 oxygen sensors in it (probably due to the oil issue) over 2 years. I ended up getting rid of it.





I know a lot of people are happy with theirs, and the 3.5 V6 is supposed to be a good engine, but I sure got a lemon!





Hope that helps!|||the gas mileage is similar to any truck based vehicle. overall reliability pretty good, depending on mileage and how it was cared for. the best thing to do is have a mechanic inspect one before you buy it. then you can get an idea what kinds of costs you are looking at for repairs and maintenance.|||I've got a 1993 Pathfinder 4door with the 3.5L v6 engine and an auto tranny. Car was owned by my mechanic and perfectly cared for from the day it left the dealer.





I get about 17mpg in the city and between 20mpg and 25mpg on the highway. in 4 wheel drive in snow or on dirt roads I get around 12mpg





if the car was well maintained you could pick one up and have it last a long time, mine has about 280k miles on it and still going strong.





if it wasn't well mainted the car can suck a whole lot of money really, really fast.





If you do buy it Change the Oil every 5k miles. Use a top dollar synthetic oil, it makes the difference of about 6mpg if i use cheap or mid-grade stuff in mine or if i try to squeeze to 10k between changes.





Best of luck.|||I own a 2008 with the 4.0L V6. 266HP engine and is rated at 20MPG highway. I drive in stop and go traffic and get 17.5MPG. I also use the recommended 93 octane. Using cheaper gas is OK but the trade off will be MPG and power.

Do Nissan Muranos really have an extra "blindspot" because of the design of the car?

I'm going to be purchasing a new car soon and I really like the Nissan Murano. Someone told me that people who have these SUV's complain of not being able to see out of a blind spot in the back/side. I guess this is supposedly due to the design of the back of the SUV. Anyway, I am planning on test driving one, but I was wondering what everyone thought about this


"rumor". Thanks!|||I bring your attention to the following link:





http://www.epinions.com/content_39569532鈥?/a>





Notice the following portion of the article written by the test driver:





"However, I simply cannot recommend this car because of the blind spot. I drove it for a week in a variety of conditions: intown, interstate, state highways, residential areas, and had daily "near misses" because of the blind spots at the rear on both sides. I had to pay very keen attention, and even then still had near misses. Between the design of the window pillars and the mirror locations, other cars could get near and I simply could not see them. Because of the poor visibility from inside, I had to drive by mirrors alone when backing up and performing similar maneuvers. A small convex mirror on the left and right mirrors would likely have helped tremendously, but I feel a new car shouldn't have such a flaw. The only vehicles I've ever driven that had such profound blind spots were service vans and large work trucks."

Are Nissan dealers allowed to service the Altima Hybrid in states in which it's not sold?

I live in Michigan and am seriously considering the Altima Hybrid (not sold in this state). Would a Michigan dealership be allowed to service the car? Or is Nissan putting a moratorium on Altima Hybrid work outside of the "8 states"?





Thanks!|||Technically, they can, but you'll be jumping through a lot of hoops to make it happen. The problem is that any technician that works on the car has to be tested and certified to work specifically on the hybrid model. If a dealership is in a state that doesn't sell the car, it usually isn't worth the money for them to certify all their technicians. That means Nissan may end up having to send qualified personnel maybe from out of state to the dealer to service the car, and you could end up waiting a few days for simple repairs.|||Almost all the Nissan Dealers have sent at least two technicians to Altima Hybrid school. Dual propulsion cars are very complex are you sure you drive only in and around town to take advandage of the fuel milage savings? A freeway driven regular 2.5 liter Altima gets 32 Miles a gallon. Unless you can get tax benefits (only for new car purchase) I would expect you would have to own a Hybrid for 10 years to get a return on your purchase price. 2010 / 2011 Nissan Leif is due out soon total electric may be the way to go if you drive around 90 miles a day.

You can probably put a small block engine in it since the engine compartment is large enough to accommodate it.one|||The truck you have could have been purchased with a 3.0 L V6 when it was new. Your best bet is to stay with the 2.4 engine and just put some hop-up parts on it. Nismo (Nissan's performance division) used to sell a head for racing that would give this engine about 200 hp.

Is it possible to swap a 1993 Nissan 300ZX's automatic transmission for a manual transmission?

I found a beautiful 1993 Nissan 300ZX 2+2, but it's an automatic. In fact, I'm not even sure I want a transmission swap. Is there a drastic difference between automatic and manual transmission in these cars? Thanks a lot!|||It is possible but it involves a lot of work.





For the hardware, you need to find not only the transmission, but also the clutch pedal, lines, clutch fluid reservoir, and something you probably don鈥檛 even imagine: a new driveshaft. Why? Because the auto and manual transmission are different at the rear end and each has its own driveshaft. Of course you can always cut the driveshaft front end and replace it with the correct one, but that is only if you are able to find that one part which is not sold alone.





For the software (yes that too), you need to trick the ECU into thinking you are in Park or Neutral in order to be able to turn ON the engine. There is some hard wiring necessary for this or you can replace the ECU all together for a manual transmission ECU.





I helped doing this swap on a 94 Twin Turbo and it was very hard, but the result was very nice and since we did the hard wiring, we left it so you can turn ON the engine without using the clutch.





Just on the side note, the Automatic Transmission for the NA (non turbo model) is very bad and tends to fail after 40 to 50K miles if you don鈥檛 take care of it. The manual is much better and you only have to worry about the clutch on the TT, but for the NA, you should be just fine.





Good luck.|||do you know if i could do that for a 1988 300zx non-turbo?

My problem is how do I get to the back of the unit?|||I would go to Best Buy or the dealer and ask them to do it for you that way you won't screw it up.|||I've read somewhere else that you have to take the plate around it off first; it comes out with the air vents, prying it from the bottom, close to the ventilation controls. Once the vents and plate from around the radio is off, then remove four Phillips screws and pull the radio out.

How can I tow my 1993 Nissan Altima out of the tow yard if I'm missing the keys-car too old to obtain keycode?

I lost my keys to the car and the city towed it because it stayed in one spot for too long. I need to get it out of the tow yard to call a locksmith to look at it because the car is too old for the local Nissan dealer to obtain a key-code. Does anyone know how I'd be able to accomplish this?|||1. Have the towing company move it for you, obviously they have it figured out.


2. Rent a car dolly or trailer from U-Haul and move it yourself.


3. Have the locksmith go to the impound yard and make the new key. If it runs, drive it home.|||I don't know if this will work on your particular car and since it will damage the car slightly, you may not want to try it, but I did this on a LeBaron once after seeing it in the "Terminator" films (the following is how the Terminator steals cars). Crack open the steering column cowling and you may be able to simply press down on the button the key touches when you start it.|||as long as the front wheels are off the ground when towing then you're ok, also a dealership can sometimes cut a key according to the vin which you can see in the drivers side lower corner of windshield, or off of your title or registration

It should already of had timming belt, trans flush, and radiator flush. If you can get it on a lift and see how the cv joints and the trans axel boots look(check for holes in the boot)Check the filters and simple things help too. Chances are if it was taken care of it should be in pretty good shape. Hopefully it wasnt a northern vehicle(salt sucks)|||Japan?...lol...=}|||How about the dealership? Ever think of that?

How do you fix a 1991 Nissan Stanza retractable seat belt?

I just recently bought a 1991 Nissan Stanza and the driver side seat belt is broken. There is a wire hanging out from the track that the seat belt runs on and the buckle itself is stuck in place. When I open the door there is a noise that sounds like the seat belt trying to move on the track, but it doesn't move(Probably due to the wire). Is there any place that sells the parts still? Or anyone that would know how to fix it?|||Way back when there was recalls on movable shoulder belts. Now The technician unplugs the motor and locks the seat belt in the rear most posistion. Then cuts away the broken cable part. Obselete now but I bet some dealerships may still have some dusty seat belt recalls still sitting on there shelfs. When the track wears and cable is not retained, your car needs new motor and track assembly with new cable buckle too. The plastic trim above the door almost always crumbles so be careful pulling off parts. Always use the seat belts both of them. So get it fixed either way. Good Luck

How much would it cost to make a transmision fluid change on a nissan altima?

And I've never done any maintnance to the transmission


About how much will it cost in a nissan dealership


Thanks everyone|||It will vary from 150 to 250 dollars. Depending on where you get it done from and what kind of oil. The dealer will cost you more and they will more than likely put the conventional trans fluid. Your trusted neighborhood mechanic will do the same thing for less. You can always ask the neighborhood mechanic to put synthetic instead and will cost you same as the dealer's conventional fluid. Hope this helps. Thanks.,|||If you want to walk go ahead and do a complete flush. For now just do a drain and refill 4 quarts of Trans fluid. "ASIAN" brand 5 speed transmissions tend to run hot using a clean paper towel wipe the stick and see what color the Bright red fluid has turned to. Brown burnt smelling fluid is not good. 5 speed transmission fluid should have been changed every 30,000 miles. If your having trouble like the trans is not going into high gear or starting out the trans tends to slip hit hard and then go. Be very careful.Good Luck

Why don't new Nissan Pathfinders and Frontiers come with eccentric bolts and washers?

The Nissan dealership says they don't come with eccentric bolts and washers, which according to them is necessary for proper alignment.|||because the vehicle is set to factory specification as the vehicle breaks in your vehicle tends to need adjustments and one of the ways is to align your tires.and to that, they sell kits to allows certain range of adjustments.and to have it properly aligned they are a must to hold your tires to proper specification they hold your tire in or out. which is the camber adjustment of the tire.if the top of your tire leans out you have to much camber if leans in you have to much negetive camber. to much of either will cause tire wear.|||that is correct i have worked in the tire field for 27 yrs and i can tell you not one car or truck comes with them it always is an add on after you take it to a shop or the dealer.

Is It possible to drive a nissan skyline r32 or r34 gtr in california?

im going to japan to buy a nissan skyline r32 or r34 and imported here in the us...is that possible?|||A job for Yourself whom have to do your research for where you live as many will say the Skyline is not street illegal in the US but infact it differs between states,example some states require the car to be made LHD whilst others dont mind,some states require added safety features on older Skyline models.Some states will not allow the Skyline at all,but all states require the car to meet emission regs.


The easiest it bring in is the R33 96-98 models due to added safety features being stock at this point and these where models tested by Motorex as for the Motorex issue they didnt go to jail for selling bad Skyline although the false testing didnt help.But with the right money and mods other Skyline are creeping in and i see som many R34 Skyline on the net in the US nowdays.


So all those that say the Skyline is illegal it is and it isnt again it depends where you live and what puts people off is the cost of mods to make it meet US regs hence putting young buyers off and older buyers usually go for newer models of cars.


A common legal need on the R32 models is a strong bar adding between the rear fuel tank and the rear seats.

Also the Stagea model is a good choice.|||Yeah, as long as it came from Morotorex. They're the only ones who can make the car legal to drive in the US. But considering the price to be $70000, it's kind of steep and insurance companies categorize this car as a "specialty" car, similar to restored American classic cars. It's just too expensive to own for a Japanese import, but you can't stop hardcore enthusiasts from getting one.|||If you bought it from the now dead Skyline importer MotorEx. Then yes, because they would have taken all the necessary steps to get it certified as street legal. Meaning bumper, and crash safety minium standards, emissions, and necessary smog hardware. But MotorEx does not exist anymore. And if you want one that badly, then you will have to file a ton of paperwork, get the car retrofitted to U.S. crash and emissions standards; document every step and then get it inspected. Not to mention the actual cost of shipping one and going through customs and taxes is outrageously high. But it can be done. Just be prepared for a mountain of redtape.





You may be better off finding one the cars the MotorEx actually sold in the U.S. Maybe the owner will want to part with it (yeah right...but hey try)

What is the best sub and audio system you recomended for a nissan altima 2002?

I just got a nissan altima 2002 and i want to install an audio system,a sub, and speaker that i could blast my music?


What is you guys best advices for me?|||http://spkrbox1.spaces.msn.com/Default.a鈥?/a> for real "sound" advice.





Your system won't mean squat without a well designed box to put your subs in. Some manufacturers have recommendations as to dimensions of various types of boxes. It is best to find someone who builds boxes if you go with something other than a sealed box.





You should always match up RMS (Root Mean Square) watts of Subs and amp per channel as well as impedance's(resistances).





If your amp is rated at 4惟 don't subject it to 2惟, it will fry.





Here is the formula for subs in parallel:





Z = 1 / (1/sub1 + 1/sub2 + 1/sub3 + ....)





For series, just add them up (sub1 + sub2 + ...).





You can mix and match these equations to get the right impedance required by your amp.





Example: 4 subs @ 4惟 each. If I connect two in parallel and the other two in parallel and tie the two pairs in series, I would have a total impedance(resistance) of 4惟. So to the amp, it's just one sub.





You should use a capacitor as well.





Recommend for every 500 watts MAX you use a .5 Farad cap


Example: 1000 watts MAX - 1 Farad cap





Try http://www.soundomain.com/shop you can find some really good deals, and this site is manufacturer certified. VERY IMPORTANT WHEN SHOPPING ON-LINE!!!





You will also need what's called a "line level converter" if your stock head unit doesn't have RCA outputs or your amp doesn't have high-level inputs.





If you like I can send you some plans for reference. My plans are for a 4-th order band pass bass box that holds two 12's. Also included are java calculators you can use to figure parallel and series values given 惟 values.


Just e-mail me sparky3489@yahoo.com





My system





Blaupunkt TSw1200 subs with a Sony Xpl艒d XM2200GTX.


My amp is 1200 watts, subs are 600 watts each, cap is 1.2 Farad





SPL is about 112 db





Total cost(so far) = $410|||Anything by Rockford Fosgate ROCKS!!!!|||Get a Jl Audio 12w3, and a 400 watt amp made by a reputable company. For speakers, I would go pioneer or eclipse.

Can i use the performance parts from the nissan 350z on my 2009 nissan maxima?

There are NO performance parts on the market for the 2009 Nissan Maxima. So, since they both share the exact same engine.

I'm not positive but I'd be willing to bet that the Z has hotter cams, high compression, and better flowing induction system. Maybe you can can upgrade some of those components but seriously ask yourself, is it worth it?





Why would you buy a brand new front wheel drive Maxima and try to mod it?

How much does replacing a Nissan Murano CVT transmission cost?

I would appreciate if the cost of the parts and the average labor cost could be separated. Also a source that could be checked would be appreciated. Separately: Does Nissan offer an extended power train warranty (over the 6/60,000) for a fee? Are the CVT's reliable?

You might to get the car checked out by a mechanic for 200 dollars this could save you a lot of money in the future.|||Maxima's are NOTORIOUS for a handful of issues. Ignition coils go out (just replaced all 6 of mine@ 140k $360 + labor. Part was only $66 each.) you'll know when it needs to change because the car will stumble at idle %26amp; go into fail safe (cuts power) mode. Additionally, your check engine light will flash@ 3k rpm's. Ultimately, the cars are excellent- but they have a track record of blowing sensors (MAF) Mass airflow sensor. Right now I need to change my OBD1 sensor on bank 2 ($250 retail) but less than $100 on ebay. Yes, if you go to the dealer or a retail automotive shop (autozone/pepboys) you will pay through the nose!!!! I get my parts off of Ebay. I bought a new MAF for $80 on ebay- go to the dealer same part is $268. I've also heard that the tensioners or rather dampeners wear out before the timing chain needs to be fixed. Chains are rated, by nissan, for up to 250k. Some people have gotten abused maximas %26amp; have had a bad experience with them, but most of us are Maxima drivers for life, they are fun, very quick little cars. Before I got the turbo installed on mine I used to be able to trail most mustangs (No saleens or shelby's, its not that fast!!) by about 1 1/2 - 2 car lengths. With the boost, they're trailing me now! Again, these are not your top end mustangs- for the record. Most of the frequent issues you can live with. You can do ALOT with these cars in terms of cutomization. %26amp; I know several members of Maxima.org that have well over 350k on some older gen maximas. My only issue with the newer maximas is that you can't get a "true" 5 speed anymore. You may also want to consider 01-03 Acura 3.2 TL (my other car) which is also an excellent choice but parts are a b*tch.

Where is the speedometer cable or sensor wire located on a 1999 Nissan Sentra?

I cannot find where the speedometer cable or sensor wire connects to the transmission on a 1999 Nissan Sentra. It is a 1.6 litre engine and manual 5 speed trans. I've looked and looked and looked. Please help! There is no cable connection running from the firewall to the trans. Maybe it is some kind of sensor wire? Thanks for your help.





.|||of course its a sensor. I haven't seen an old-school cable in years.|||A perfectly worthless non-answer.

What is the difference between japanese and english brake calipers on NIssan Almera N16?

I need to get a rear brake caliper for a Nissan Almera N16 with 1.5 litres engine. In the shop there is two types, for cars made in england and for cars made in Japan, My car is japanese and the caliper is 300 euros, where the english one is only 175. Is there such a big difference between them?


Thanks|||Try here;

How do you program the garage door opener in a 2000 Nissan Pathfinder?

I don't have the owners manual anymore.





The make is a 2000 nissan pathfinder.





The garage opener is three buttons on the visor.





Thanks a bunch if you can help.|||Most likely way is.... there is a set button on your garage door opener motor (you'll need a ladder)... press it... you have a few seconds to press one of the buttons on your visor (your car may require just one button, not any) You should now be set.|||1. Press and hold the two outer HomeLink buttons, releasing only when the HomeLink indicator light begins to flash after 20 seconds. (Do not perform this step when training the additional HomeLink buttons.)


2. Position the hand-held transmitter 1-3 inches away from the HomeLink surface (located on your visor), keeping the HomeLink indicator light in view.





3. Using both hands, simultaneously press and hold both the desired HomeLink button and hand held transmitter button. DO NOT release until the HomeLink indicator light flashes slowly and then rapidly. When the indicator light flashes rapidly, both buttons may be released. (The rapid flashing indicates successful training.)





Note: Some garage door openers may require you to replace step 3 with the “cycling” procedure noted in the “View Canadian Instructions” section.





4. Press and hold the trained HomeLink button and observe the indicator light.





•If the indicator light is solid/continuous, training is complete and your device should activate when the HomeLink button is pressed and released.


•If the indicator light blinks rapidly for 2 seconds and then turns a solid/continuous light, proceed with the following training instructions for a rolling code device. A second person may make the following steps quicker and easier. Please use a ladder or other device. Do not stand on your vehicle to perform the next steps.





5. At the garage door opener receiver (motorhead unit) in the garage, locate the “learn” or “smart” button (usually near where the hanging antenna wire is attached to the unit). If there is difficulty locating the training button, reference the garage door opener’s manual.


6. Press and release the “learn” or “smart” button (the name and color of the button may vary by manufacturer). NOTE: Once the button is pressed, there are 30 seconds in which to initiate the next step.


7. Return to the vehicle and firmly press and hold the trained HomeLink button for two seconds and release. Repeat the “press/hold/release” sequence up to 3 times to complete the training process.

Can a nissan dealership work on a infinit car?

Where i live all we have is a nissan dealership and so i was wondering if nissan will work on infiniti cars|||Toyota is infiniti???? No. Toyota is Lexus. Nissan is infiniti.





Call you Nissan dealer tomorrow and ask them if it's a problem. That way you'll get the correct answer. : )|||Yes because some people trade in or sell their old cars no matter the kind when they buy a new car.|||The Nissan dealership I work for are greddy and hungry we will work on non warranty items on any Inifinity car. But we have yo refer you to the closest dealer when we find a recall or some waranty issue. Call Nissan shops or drive in and ask. Some dealers think parts is an issue and are narrow minded. I have found like model 1/30, G/35 2dr and G/35 four door just about the same. But when you need a transmission sensor for Q/45 or FX there are major differences. Any Nissan product after 1994 Nissan Dealers have service manuals on the computer like the one I'm typing on right now.|||yup.|||YES THEY SHOULD, JUST A DIFFERENT EMBLEM AND SOME OPTIONS U CANT GET ON A NISSAN,|||Mine does.|||Yes. They are the same brand.|||Well not knowing where you live and the dealer you live by, I would say you should call and ask them?|||All you have to do is look at the name of the car. Next look for the dealership that has the same name. Finally when you see the name that match your car that is your answer. Unless you bought an used infinti from nissan that has an warranty then if it breaks down while on warranty nissan have to fix it.Even still nissan may take it to the infinti dealership to fix it. Mainly the techinicians at nissan are trained to work on nissan and the techinicians at infinti are trained to work on infinti. Both cars have the same engine parts but different body shapes.|||For some things they probably will. The VQ engine is in many Nissans and Infinitis, but they're tuned different and the electronics are different. For most service you'll be okay and they can order the parts if they're good on customer svc|||Sure.|||nope, it don't work that way|||Yes. They use pretty much the same parts - Infinity is just an upscale brand of Nissan's.|||of course nissan makes infiniti so it should be able to fix it.|||No, but Toyota will. Toyota ~= Infinity.|||yes and no, it depends if you have warranty issue, a Nissan dealer cannot work on your car . But for the most part, if you own an I30, I35, QX4, G20, G35 coupe/sedan, FX35, FX56, the engine parts between these of Infiniti and Nissan will work, exceptions are O2 sensors, mass air flow sensor.|||Of course, Nissan makes Infiniti...... No problem.|||Call and ask them.|||Hey guy there should be no problem its the same family of cars..|||yes only pre-own
