Car Forum / Nissan / Nissan Maxima / December 2004'99 maxima # of rpm at 0mph
hi, actually i'm about to be a '99 maxima owner soon.(but not yet) so i figured i might as well as join now. i'm sure this won't be the last time. anyway, this car's rpm was at 1400 at 0 mph. is that normal for maxima? if not, what does this mean? thanks. oh, also i heard that the maxima has some problems with the ignition coil for 95 to 00 model. is that true? if it is, is there any ways to avoid the problem before it gets out of control? > hi, actually i'm about to be a '99 maxima owner soon.(but not yet) > so i figured i might as well as join now. i'm sure this won't be [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > for 95 to 00 model. is that true? if it is, is there any ways to avoid > the problem before it gets out of control? No, it's normal. Is the check engine light on? Yes, there were coil problems in some of the 99's. I'd make sure it idled right (600rpm +/-) before I bought it. > No, it's normal.

Opps, that should say "NOT normal" Seems a little high if you mean at idle. I have a 98 and have had no problems. > hi, actually i'm about to be a '99 maxima owner soon.(but not yet) > so i figured i might as well as join now. i'm sure this won't be [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > for 95 to 00 model. is that true? if it is, is there any ways to avoid > the problem before it gets out of control? > hi, actually i'm about to be a '99 maxima owner soon.(but not yet) > so i figured i might as well as join now. i'm sure this won't be [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > for 95 to 00 model. is that true? if it is, is there any ways to avoid > the problem before it gets out of control? That could be normal. When your car starts, and it's cold outside, the idle will be high, from 1500 to 2000 rpms. As the engine gets warm, it should settle down to 600-700 rpms. CD Hi, Normal idle in gear RPM should be about 700-800 Also check service records for this car to see if the ignition coils have been replaced by Nissan. These had a high faillure rate in this model year.. Expensive repair 6X300/ a piece $1800.00 > hi, actually i'm about to be a '99 maxima owner soon.(but not yet) > so i figured i might as well as join now. i'm sure this won't be [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > for 95 to 00 model. is that true? if it is, is there any ways to avoid > the problem before it gets out of control? > Hi, > Normal idle in gear RPM should be about 700-800 > Also check service records for this car to see if the ignition coils have > been replaced by Nissan.

Not sure what makes you think it costs $300 a piece to change a coil, but you should really limit your posts to subject areas and/or topics you know something about. Someone might accidently take your advice seriously. |
