Hello Everyone,

I have been having this oddly strange noise come from the engine area, and the noise seems to be relevant mostly when in gears at idle....sounds like a disks almost rubbing against each other. This chit as been going for 3 months and after replacing the short block and a purged cylinder the noise is still there.

As anyone else been experiencing this as well?

Thank you for your response in advance.

 

You changed the shortblock????

Explain please

 

I'am assuming he had a bad block and changed it out. But anyways that's just your tranny making noise don't leave it in gear when stopped preferably.

 

So, I took in my car in December of 2010 - there was this annoying noise almost a racketing noise that is relevant when in gear (reverse or drive).

No, they changed the block because of the noise. They turned off a cylinder and the noise would go away - they also reset the ecu, used ether oil, changed the cylinder valve - whatever else to save their asses. They are not done with me though - I have a great lemon law case on them. Also, my car is a automatic.

 

sound/video clip of noise?

 

I tried to record, but to no avail.

UPDATE: Just received a call from Nissan-USA and they are buying back my car per CA Lemon Law. This was once they pushed me to the edge and wrote a inquiry with the BBB Autoline.
