Well, I’m glad this thread stayed on track and didn’t become a total wreck!

Ya know, I had one of those. Turbo. It was fun from 40mph up. Bought it used off a Phoenix car lot. Never had to do ANY work on it.

Problem was it had absolutely NOTHING off the line. 4 cylinder NA Altimas with rubber band transmissions left me sitting there when the light turned green.

Mine also had slop in the driveline, excess backlash. Couldn't find anyone I judged qualified to work on it, rebuild the transaxle, etc. Didn't trust the dealer.

Sold it for a little more than I paid for it. It was a beauty in all black.
