Tue, 07 Jul 2026 14:19:02 -0700

RPM Drops to Zero while Driving, releasing X-pedal and car slows down and RPM needle drops to Zero and car starts to Shake/Vibrate.

cleaned throttle body, air flow sensor, changed coil packs, no engine light comes on, changed speed sensor because of misfiring (not changing to 2nd gear).

Didnt service injectors yet, its a bit expensive .

2013-Present Nissan Sentra: Why doesn't my a/c blow cold air?

Thu, 14 May 2026 11:18:17 -0700

I've had the car for about a year now and whenever it's slightly warm outside my a/c will fluctuate between blowing hot air to blowing slightly less hot air but never actually cool or cold air. I thought it needed to be recharged but when I hooked up the gauges and can of refrigerant to it the gauge said it was already fully charged. Any advice is greatly appreciated because it's already starting to warm up in California again and I'm not sure my wife or I can survive another summer of the devil blowing air in our faces while we drive around. Thanks in advance.

2007-2012 Nissan Sentra: Where is reset button on Nissan sentra 2008

Sat, 17 Jan 2026 11:29:45 -0700

Hi,

I have Nissan Sentra 2008 and my problem is a steady low tire pressure light flashing on my dash. The dealership mechanic checked and adjusted the pressure in all wheels but the TPMS light is still on. Doing research on the Internet I found that TPMS sensors should be reset by pushing Reset button. So my question is where is reset button in my car?

If this does not help I will start checking/replacing TPMS sensors in each wheel but I 'd like to avoid that.

Thank you!

Nissan Sentra: 2017 Sentra SV trans oil pan

Mon, 17 Nov 2025 11:20:36 -0700

The trans oil pan on my 2017 Nissan Sentra SV had a crack (crushed) and I purchased a new pan. When installing the new pan, two of the 15 bolts didn't tighten to spec of 8.7 ft. lbs of torque. Will this most likely create leakage issues? Or, is the 13pts of torque enough?

Mon, 11 Aug 2025 23:59:20 -0700

Rpm’s fluctuate at idle, car shakes, and shuts off. Goes into limp mode, and is hesitant to accelerate, Check engine light has been on throwing a code for a mass airflow sensor, I have replaced the MAF and that is NOT the issue.

2013-Present Nissan Sentra: What do I need to remove to replace my starter?

Sun, 26 Jan 2025 18:18:33 -0700

Please excuse if I don't use the correct terms I'm definitely not a mechanic I just have fixed my cars as they break, but here it goes. I need to replace the starter in my car and the videos I'm watching on YouTube go from an untouched engine to everything already taken apart and then removing the starter without fully explaining what all I need to disconnect. I'm also curious if I disconnect the radiator hoses do I need to drain my radiator first? If so does that mean that I will need to bleed the air out of the radiator after I refill it? Also is it easier to handle this job underneath my car or above the engine? Because of course it's raining for the first time in a year in California so I'm not too excited about crawling underneath a wet car but if that's going to be the easiest way I don't mind

2013-Present Nissan Sentra: Why does my car not go above 2500rpm

Fri, 12 Jan 2024 17:28:58 -0700

My 2013 nissan sentra sv has been doing this thing recently where it will not go above 2500 rpm and randomly loses power completely not letting me accelerate at all. There are no lights on the dash at all

It happened a month ago I put some gum out fuel system cleaner In it it fixed the problem for a couple weeks and started doing this again

I need to know what's happening, i got it checked out by my mechanic and he did not find any codes or anything when he hooked it up to his machine

If anyone knows what I should do please let me know
