What we check first
The Nissan issues a specialist knows by heart.
These are the well-documented, high-frequency faults on Nissan platforms. Whether yours has them depends on the year, engine and mileage, which is what the diagnostic is for.
CVT overheating and judder
Fresh NS-3 fluid on schedule and a healthy cooler keep the CVT alive. We read the fluid deterioration data before recommending a service or a replacement.
Timing chain and guides on the VQ engines
A whine or rattle on the 3.5 V6 can be the secondary chain guides. We confirm with a scope before quoting.
Power steering and cooling
Leaking steering racks and radiators are common at higher miles. We pressure test and replace the failed part only.
