I have a 1996 Nissan Altima GXE. Recently I have observed that, after
switching on head lights they are blinking on and off (Usually it
starts 10 minutes after switiching on the lights and then go off and
come back after a while). This is not just limited to headlights but

I have a 2004 Altima.  After turning the engine off for 15-20 minutes the
car is hard to re-start.  It will take about 10-15 seconds of cranking the
starter for it to fire up.  I know it doesn't sound like a long time, but
when you're on the other end of the key you start to worry.  ...

Long (but I think interesting and informative) story followed by pertinent
questions.
One day here in California, I start my 2002 Altima 3.5 with 42K miles on it
(which I love and has never given me a problem before). The "Service Engine

I get a water swooshing noise when I accelerate.  When I am at a stop and
then press the gas, I hear a water swooshing noise from behind the center
console.  I took it to Nissan yesterday and they claim that this is normal,
that it's just the coolant.  It's funny because I have ...

My father is the owner of 2002 Altima and he's been complaining about a
noise he's been hearing from somewhere under the hood of the car.  It seems
to occur most often when the car comes to a stop and he refers to it as a
chirping sound, but to me it sounds like some kind of a small ...

Thinking about replacing my car battery and my son suggested Wal-Mart or
Costco vs having dealer replace. Trying to do lookup on google to see what
brand/model # of battery to get but not successful.
Any pitfalls of say a Wal-Mart/Costco doing job vs dealer?

I have a 1997 Nissan Altima that started acting up about 2 months ago out
of the blue.  Here is what happened, while driving it would just start to
run very rough and eventually stop.  When I would come to a stop light it
would not even idle so I had to keep one foot on the gas and ...

I am about to do another oil change on my wife's '98 Altima.  We
misplaced the owner's manual and I forgot what the correct engine oil
capacity with a new filter would be.
Thank you---------

The "Service Engine Soon" light on the dashboard of my 1999 Altima came one
about a month ago, stayed on for about a week, and then went off.  Now it's
back.  The Owner's Manual is  no help.  One mechanic said not to pay any
attention to it, and another mechanic said that I should ...

fine until now when i turn the key the engine cranks but dies again.i have
to repeat this few times and press the gas to make the engine ...

The heater fan speed control only works in the high speed position (i.e.,
4). This appears to be a common problem with all Nissan models and is likely
due to a open circuit in a resistor pack.
Where is the resistor pack located on a '99 Altima and how is it removed?
