Reviews of spare parts for Nissan
I’ve had so many replacements fail in all my Nissans over the years that I just get an oem one from a dealer. Never had an oem one shit out yet.
I run Motul 10/30 in my motor, helps the piston slap on cold start from the forged pistons.
I run Amsoil full synthetic CVT fluid and drain / fill every 30k miles. 180,000 miles of this. Runs like a dream. No issues.
Some of the Revups are fine. I"ve owned my 2006 Z since 2011 and it doesn't burn oil.
I bought a reman Denso from NAPA. First one worked but sounded like a rattling box of rocks from the getgo. A week later I swapped it out for another Denso Reman and it has been working fine for 3-4 years now.
I haven't had any issue with yellow stuff on my 350Z doing hot track days in Miami. But the brakes don't last as long as they should. So I'm trying blue next time and I might go to the full track pads whenever that isn't enough.
I put some Anchors on my Altima and didn’t last 2 years.
I insisted on OEM to prevent any aftermarket issues. No problem with installation, but i got in it the next day and where the HUD projects onto the windshield, the image had a ripple that was extremely annoying. Finally after months of complaining, they swapped it out for another OEM. This one was worse. Not only are there ripples in the same area, the lamination looks like a shoddy tint job. Corporate finally agreed to replace again. Waiting on the dealer to set up a time. This has been going on since Nov. of last year.
all nissan cvt tranny cars should be gotten rid of fast. 135000 miles is a record for that expensive unit.
