I've been thinking about buying a six- to eight-yerar old Maxima this Fall,
based on recommendations of a couple of ffriends who have been happy with
theirs of that approximate vintage.  I may have some second thoughts as I've
read this newsgroup which, of course, focusses on ...

Hi. Recently I did a modification to make my clock stay on bright even with
the headlights turned on.  It required for me to cut a red wire with a
blue line going through it.  After doing it, the lights lighting up my
auto climate control unit went out (blue/red arrows, auto, econ, ...

My '96 Maxima is due for new tires and I was curious if anyone has any
recommendations on the type/model I should get, where I should purchase
them (dealer, NTB, etc.) and any price estimates?
I currently have 2 Firsetones and 2 Yokohamas (don't ask!long story)-

I have a 1990 Nissan Maxima, not sure if it's a GXE or a SE, (how do you
tell?)
It has the standard 3.0 v6 engine, here is my problem/question(s):
I have checked with the manufactures specs about oil changes, which

Are the speaker outputs from the basic non-Bose radio/cassette
anything special?   (in contrast to the special output from Bose to
the  amp'ed speakers).  Can the non-Bose speakers be replaced with
aftermarket speakers, or are some signal issues I need to worry about?

I've been plague by a "knock sensor" check engine light that won't
go away. I check the knock sensor while still bolted to the engine

I just recently bought my maxima about a month ago and it is slowly
approaching 90k miles.  I have been running fine, with a few things that
bother me ie. transmission, engine lagging at low rpms, etc.  I have read

cars doesn't know where it goes... haha... and we need someone with a

I was going to buy a 1993 with 120 K on it, loaded sunroof etc, but one of
my mech. says they burn lots of gas like 19 per gallon. Thats 8k per liter
With the price of gas going up all the time, and no work lately I wonder if
this is a wise purchase.

My brakes are squeeling after 85k miles, I presume it's the front.  Is there
any trick to replacing the pads on the front brakes?  Do the slave cylinders
just push back in (using a C-clamp) or are they threaded, or some other
trick?
