Thread: Pulled the trigger and got an '06 Altima SE-R

Yep going to have them go over everything, since its under warranty. Nissan seems to deny a lot of common problems that happen (i.e. = 5th gear popout that was only fixed if your B13 was still new and under warranty back in the 90s) - there was no official recall for that. Buncha crap.

Yah i fought tooth and nail for the motor rebuild, its why they fucked it because they were pissed to do it in the first place, if they would of done it right id still have her , but when i got told shit in the block were left loose on purpose, and could tell with the loss of power and performace she had after teh rebuild, adn almost immediate start up of oil consumption again, i sold her for 9k..and just paid off what i owed on her 3 months ago after not owning since 2010.....One day ill get another, black, murder it out like i wanted, unless i find a code red I just miss how comfy it was to drive and enjoy

Yes, that's what I love, the comfort, the seats and the space. It's a total different beast than a B13. I like the B13 seats but damn the Altima SE-R is comfy

**UPDATE**

Apparently, it was the oil pressure sensor/switch. $136 from Nissan. The warranty had a $100 deductible so that kinda sucked.

I drove the car about 30 miles and the oil light never once came on, yet once again, the oil pressure gauge seems a bit low at warm idle. Here's a photo of the gauge earlier today after I picked it up:

That just seems, IDK, low to me. What is that, like 8psi? But then again, here it was before the new sensor at warm idle:

In that photo it appears below 0. WTF. But yeah, after the sensor was replaced, the oil light never came on in the gauge cluster and the car runs fine. I hope it lasts. I was almost hoping it was something like it needed a new oil pump or something major so I could take advantage of the limited warranty and then have peace of mind, but I'm assuming they checked the PSi manually and it came up normal even when the gauge was showing 0 and the oil light was on, so it had to be the sensor switch.
