January 5th, 2013 01:05 AM #1Mga Paps, i just bought an 08 Sentra GS. I found some issues with the car which i need some advise from our Nissan Gurus. These issues are as follows:
1. Difficult to move from stop. Everytime, i drive the car from a stop, i can feel how heavy the car is. I am not sure if this is natural for a car is heavy, or whether it just needs a tune-up (which i intend to do tomorrow if a Nissan service shop can accept the car for repair works without sn appointment).
2. Difficult in moving up a ramp. I found the car not moving as i was entering the ramp leading to our office. Probably less than a 20% gradient ramp. I find this odd. Because before getting this car, I was driving an Exalta STA. Although, i already heard that the N16 is a heavy beast, i never expected it to have a difficulty on going up on this ramp, with only me on board.
3. "Airbag" Lamp blinks - it doesn't look like the airbag already deployed. much more, it doesn't seem like nabaha yung unit.
4. "O/D Off" lamp doesn't light up when turn off O/D using the switch. I have been driving sn suto car since about 12 years ago, All of them have O/D. I did notice that the lamp lights up when I turn the ignition key to the On position.
5. No horn / Chirp / Siren for the alarm. Having reviewed the website (haven't gone through the manual yet), there should be a horn / audible alarm. Please correct me if I am wrong.
Ito mga sir ang plano kong gawin bukas:
1. Go to Nissan and have the car on Consult (I am nit sure what they call it) to diagnose all the electronic parts with the sensors. Hopefully, they can spot what's wrong with the indicator lamps (airbag and O/D off). Will have all three fixed is budget permits.
2. If budget permits, plan to do the following within one month. Go to Rapide (or any other reputable repair shop. Baka may ma-recommend kayo mga sir) to do the following:
a. Change Oil, Oil Filter, spark plugs (if its not titanium tip)
b. Have ATF Dialysis
c. Replace busted tail brake light bulb
d. Get wheel alignment
e. Bolt tightening,
f. Remove rattling sound (seems to come from the tail pipe).
g. Check the following:
- braskes
- all fluids
- all bushing
Sana umabot pa natitira kong pera na napamaskuhan, hehehe.
I feel the same way. Not a fan.
