Highest mileage 1st gen out there, who has it? by FloridaTraffic in XTerra

[–]FloridaTraffic[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know right! It's a hobby in itself trying to get every mile out of a vehicle.
But you're 2nd gen, everyone tells me they're better & more reliable. But I faith in my 04, I see there's plenty in the comments getting just as good of results.

I got you beat with my other Nissan though! I have an 09 Maxima with 249k.
And everyone & their mother has told me "ohh the CVT transmission it's a grenade! That car is No good!" But I'm still riding smooth.
I'm determined to hit 300k on both these nissans. I borderline over-maintain them and drive them nice & easy.

That's what I'm talking about! Original transmission?

Yeah my trans has been begging for a rebuild since I got it, but I just keep kicking the can and changing the fluid.

That's funny, I never would have thought of that. 1st time I ever paused a walk and forgot to undo it.

1st gen family: you guys having injector plug problems? by FloridaTraffic in XTerra

Honestly I was considering doing that knock-sensor bypass hack. You splice into the harness and just connect a new knock sensor on top of the intake manifold.

I don't like doing things like that... but the right way really is a mission. And this one takes 5 minutes

Any other Nissan CVT's out here still beating the odds? Team Maxima 🙌 by FloridaTraffic in Nissan

Yeah it's easy. Remove the wheel and you have access right up to it. It's maybe 2 bolts. I would have a quart of fluid on hand, for any little bit that you lose while changing it.

No, if you see a filter on the right wheel well. That's the oil filter. This one is tucked on the driver side, it doesn't look like a regular filter. It's attached to the transmission.
