2006 nissan maxima. ive owned this car since october 2011, it was a great car for a while but shortly after buying the car the transmission started acting weird. by weird i mean, the car would drive fine for a while but if i got on the interstate and then got back off on a slower road, the car didnt want to shift down. after a month or so i took it to a mechanic and he basically said it needs a new transmission. also at the same time the engine started making a ticking noise but not like a rod knocking more like someting was loose. i asked my mechanic and he told me it was an idle tensioner for the timing chain. basically when the engine is at idle the timing chain has a little slack in it compared to when its driving. this is normal, but what the tensioner does is make the chain tight when its at idle. the ticking noise is the timing chain rubbing against the housing as it turns. currently doesnt affect the engine at all but over time it could cause the chain to pop off. $60 part but $300 for part and labor from my mechanic. from what ive researched its fairly common in these engines. the ticking stops while the car is in drive and is accelerating.

the car is driveable right now as long as its driven easily with no hard accelerations. but i would recomend having the issues fixed before driving it daily.

ok so heres the details i know about the car.

154,000 miles
automatic
practically flawless body and interior (only minor hood chips on the hood from the road and slight chrome peeling on the grill)

tennessee car originally and was used as a sales car which is why is has as many miles for its age.

im basically just looking to get some of my money back out if it. it has been sitting for around a year
new battery
very clean car from front to back.

price is slightly negotiable but keep in mind its very underpriced already compared to if it was a flawless car.

my phone is 256-683-two385 and my name is matt, call or text any time, leave a message if needed

Nissan recalls over 220k Altima sedans over hoods that could fly open

Fri, 10 Oct 2014

Nissan will be recalling 220,000 Altima sedans, according to a new recall bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Apparently, model year 2013 Altimas built between March 6, 2012 and February 28, 2013 are at risk of their hoods flying open at speed.
According to NHTSA, debris, corrosion and interference between the hood's inner panel and the secondary latch lever could bind the mechanism in the unlatched position. While this in itself won't cause the hood to fly open - there's still a primary latch that needs released from within the cabin - it presents a potentially dangerous situation should the primary latch be accidentally released.
Nissan will begin notifying owners of the affected vehicles, who will need to report to their local dealer for free repairs. Scroll down for the full bulletin from the government safety watchdog.

Nissan's Ghosn called out by Deltawing's Panoz in print ad

Wed, 25 Jun 2014

When the Nissan ZEOD RC limped to the side of the Circuit de la Sarthe a mere five laps into this year's 24 Hours of Le Mans, we imagine that a certain American motorsports figure at least smirked a little. Don Panoz's ongoing feud with Nissan probably means he wasn't sorry to see the arrow-shaped racecar's poor showing, and now he's stepping up his campaign against his former racing partner.
For those who need a refresher, back in 2012, Panoz and Nissan teamed up to field the DeltaWing, an innovative, wedge-shaped racer, as the first entry in the 24 Hours of Le Mans' experimental Garage 56 concept. The car rapidly became a fan favorite. The Panoz/Nissan alliance didn't last, though, and before long, the DeltaWing's designer was getting a paycheck from Nissan and the ZEOD RC racer arrived. Shortly after that, Panoz began mulling over a lawsuit alleging intellectual property infringement. The American motorsports icon would eventually pull the trigger on a suit back in December of 2013.
Panoz's latest move in the ongoing feud involves an open letter in both The Nashville Tennessean, the paper that serves Nissan's US headquarters, and trade paper Automotive News. The letter calls out Renault-Nissan CEO Carlos Ghosn directly, and points out some of the similarities between the DeltaWing and the ZEOD RC, going so far as to quote the original car's designer, Ben Bowlby.

NHTSA releases updated Takata airbag recalled cars list, but it still has errors

Wed, 22 Oct 2014



Unfortunately, the government's list still contains errors.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued an updated list of vehicle models that it's urging owners to repair under the mushrooming Takata airbag inflator recall. The latest version adds vehicles from new automakers like Subaru and Ford that are missing from the original announcement, and it also removes erroneous entries from General Motors, leaving only the 2005 Saab 9-2X (a reskinned Subaru WRX), and the 2003-2005 Pontiac Vibe, a joint project with Toyota.
