2001 altima intake manifold gasket
I have a 2001 Nissan Altima. From what I have read, my rough idle is probably due to a leaking intake manifold gasket. I'm not a car mechanic. I'm I foolish to try to do this myself?
I'm also having a problem with driver side power window not going all the way up. Is this the motor or the guide? Can I fix this myself with a little help from Haynes or Chilton? Thanks for the help ajr2 |

About the window problem, try first using a lube spray to see if maybe it's just lacking lubrication at the window guides. Find a silicone spray that has a straw with it and starting with the window down, begin at the top of the rear track, spray lightly and move the can down towards the glass, letting just a little trickle down the track. Then immediately begin moving the glass up and down several cycles to coat the track and guides with lube. Run that a few times and see if that helps. Use a similar process with the front track until the window moves freely. However, if the window just stops completely during it's travel, and then won't move for several minutes, the window motor is the likely fault. If you do need the motor for that window replaced, let us know. |

I called NISSAN at 1 800 647 7261 I talked to Francisco Cortez extension1614 If a lot of people call NISSAN and ask for the same guy and mention the same problem I bet he would do something... Please call this number I have not fixed my car yet and someone mentioned that NISSAN quietly might cooperate to solve your problem. Yes , there is many like us with the same problem , just check Google and you will see. |

Car Experts, My car has a rattle noise while accelating, mechanic said it is not a big safety problem ,but the repair for this air intake manifold will cost around $600. I want to repair it by myself. What I can do to fix it, it is kind of annoying. Thank you very much!
Where is the Fuel Filter in a 2001 Nissan Altma GXE located. Also, will a bad Catalyic Converter cause low miles per gallon.
Please talk slow and use small words. I tried to remove the air intake manifold from my 99 f150. I removed the 9 bolts from the top and anything on the sides that I could find. The unit would not budge, like it was welded on. What did I miss? I need to get it off in order to deal with injection...
I need to have the head gasket repaired on this car, and have received an estimate of over $1500, including over 10 hours of labor. I looked online and found that the part itself costs only $12-$55. (Car has 80000 miles) What is a reasonable charge to perform this repair?
Why won't our Altima start with a blown head gasket? We want to try to fix it ourselves, but are confused as to why it won't start? Would like to confirm my idea why before I start tearing it apart! Any ideas?
