Hi I am a mechanic who started working in Kenya in late 80s to Early 2000 before moving to Dubai in 2003. One knowledge that was a great breakthrough to me is understanding the use of a Component called Thermostat in the cooling system and its relation to the way the ECU works. In Kenya mechanics remove the thermostat and Throw it away instead of replacing it with a new one, they also use water instead of coolant. Those two things alone opens a can of worms in any car. Those with GDI engines it's even worse. Once the THERMOSTAT has been removed the engine will not reach the normal operating temperature fast, low temperature trigers the computer to sense that the engine needs to warm up fast and so it sends a message to the injectors to put more fuel in the engine, in the meantime the engine remains cold and therefore it does not burn all that fuel which then turns into carbon, fails the combustion Chambers and prevents the plugs from firing. Cold cylinders allow fuel to leak into the crankcase through the rings ruining the lubricating quality of the engine oil. All these happen quite fast. ....TBC

my dad had his thermostat removed then instead connected the fan direct such that when he starts up the engine whether cold or hot the fan is always rotating , the bad part is that the car sometimes loses power and when the mechanic checks he always finds carbon in the plugs besides dad always complaining that his car is consuming more fuel

We own a Nissan Pathfinder. About 2 years ago it started overheating, gasket had to be changed. Upon reassembly, the turbo refused to function. We've lived without it since. It is the perfect car if you do long travel but now without the turbo, it doesn't feel the same. The good thing with all the hustles of fixing it is that it's taught me a lot about cars.

The challenge of CVT overheating is Solved by Adding external transmission coolers and fixed anterior to radiator. It costs about 100$ . You can buy 2 oil coolers of Mitsubishi pajero or Canter Fix them and problem is over. I have a Serena now milage about 200k all doing gud. Dont sell your car for manageable solution.

Have been driving a Nissan Sylphy since 2014. Never had a problem other than the dashboard. Have found it to be my most reliable car since. Maybe I have been lucky. However I have noted you rarely ever find Nissan Salon cars in a garage. Grant it I maybe more biased as a long time owner though. Major issue about that model is the clearance. We mostly meet when repairing the front bumper but rarely anything mechanical.

Nissan serena shida ni not knowing how to maintain the cvt trans,most guys just flush the fluid bila using bi-directional obd for commanding some solenoids to release fluid so they end up doing half flush. Also these trans are either overfilled or under filled in most cases so leading up to overheating,the cvt whine is caused by the cvt fluid pump overheating. When you flush the fluid also change the filter,iko chini below the battery ukishatoa the beehive cooler,ikipata uchafu some particles get into the fluid hence lubrication becomes a problem. I recommend using Wolver Cvt Fluid 4 litres but usieke yote usually around 3.8 litres is enough.For the engine kama ina overheat check the coolant temperature sensor hizi huspoil sana kwa hizi gari na hufanya fan ya radiator kukosa kudo na ni very inexpensive.Thermostat pia hukua noma so also check kama inaachilia coolant into the engine.

Nothing wrong with the Nissan MR20 engine, its pretty reliable if you take care of it. The main weakness with Nissans is always the CVT transmission. Buying another gearbox in Industrial area will cost less than 100k. The difference between the price of a Nissan and Toyota (eg Serena @950k and Noah @1.55M) is alot of money. I still think Nissans make sense especially if you can find one at a good price.

I imported a Mitsubishi galant 2.0 GDI in April 2011 with 65k km on the clock. Now August 2021 i have only had to change the shocks, twice. The car runs absolutely perfect and consumes fuel better than my Probox in addition to being super comfy. Going by the said reputation, I expected much trouble but it never came, so far. Please explain.

Am not an expert of cars. Although I have some knowledge about the engine because I had an overheating matutu back in 2012/2013. It gave me experience. What I know is that never buy any small vehicle of Nissan brand. For instance probox is 300k more expensive than Nissan Advan. I realized that the later overheats with a distance of 200kms even if it is a new car.

Towards the end of Nissan CEO Ghosn,it is believed that it's during that time the CVT quality was compromised and prone to break unceremoniously. The Japanese were not happy with the intended merger with the French hence one of the many accusations and turmoil leading to prosecution, exile and eventual being sneaked out in box out of China back to his homeland in Lebanon With no extradition treaties. Toyota's CVT is much better and a great competitor to its Nissan counterpart. Have you featured the Suzuki Jimmy how it handles and compares with midsize 4x4 on our terrain? I would be glad to watch it.
