2:00 in is where people need to focus on. IT WILL NOT BE NOTICABLE visibly that the hose is cracked, you must get a flashlight and feel around. The dealer wanted $4800 to fix the CVT transmission, a local shop wouldnt touch it because he knew Altima's were challenging to fix when this happens. It was not our brake sensor, nor the MAF being dirty...it was this hose. Sometimes a simple and diligent inspection of a car is necessary before taking it to a stealer. Look for frayed wires, loose hoses, low fluids, things the average person can do. This was a surprisingly expensive part at $50, but well worth it to solve this issue. Imagine pulling out onto a busy highway and your car just stops accelerating? CHECK YOUR HOSE TODAY! **Thank you for posting this**

[@JohnFixes]

Man, you made my day! Glad my little video saved you some serious $$ and solved the problem!

[@Scott-dn1bk]

@@JohnFixes I goes beyond that. This car actually belongs to an elderly family member who just lost her husband. She doesn't have any money, and since her husband passed she had had to replace a pressure regulator, a washer, had her roof start leaking, her sidewalk lifting up from freeze thaw, and many odd medical issues herself. She wasn't going to pay that money for that old of a car which otherwise looks new and runs great with nice features like heated leather seats. When I fixed this she stressed for weeks after it couldn't possibly be the solve, the garage people wouldn't take advantage of an old lady. So you made her day as well. Ours was cracked in three places. I found a few more items to address while inside the hood but nothing major. All set now, except a deer ran out in front of her so she's waiting until July when the shop can take her in.

[@xCARPx2014]

My car started to not accelerate sometimes when I step on the gas fully. Like it gets revved then suddenly like jumps to speed. I checked that hose & it's cracked, could that be the cause? I was thinking it could be the CVT :(

[@Scott-dn1bk]

​@@xCARPx2014it could be, but you could get this part and try it, if it doesn't fix it clean it and return it. It sounds like the air intake hose honestly. People are too quick to assume the cvt transmission is the problem.

[@JohnFixes]

Either way, get that hose fixed asap. The dirt it's pulling into your engine will grind it up! You'll start burning oil, smoking out the back, and worse....

[@pamelabranch2813]

Thank you. I'm a 60 year old widow who does not want to rely on a mechanic to do simple tasks. I did it! It took me all of 30 minutes. Thank you!

I'm glad we got you back on the road at full speed!

[@rob4812]

I appreciate the pointers. But didn’t correct my cars hesitation/sputtering/bucking issue with my 2008 Altima 2.5S. No CEL so took it to my mechanic and I wanted to share what fixed it. They tightened a loose engine harness ground. The car has been running smoothly ever since. Hope this helps other Altima owners in the future. Thanks

[@JohnFixes]

Yeah a loose engine would cause a bit of "bucking", I'd imagine! Thanks for sharing your fix.

[@cheif4455]

Yay! I'm glad it helped!

[@Scoobie5]

Eer😂 th. P

[@Bill_1639]

There is a 5th and possibly 6th cause as well. (1) the brake light switch by the pedal could be sticking, causing the computer to read that both the throttle and brakes are being pressed at the same time. Then the computer limits the vehicle’s ability to accelerate. (2) the brake light relay, causing the same symptoms as said above

[@JohnFixes]

Good info... Thanks for sharing this!

[@ellysparkle5018]

I noticed my brake light sensor randomly turned on and off while having the slippery indicator on which stays on and off too and not allows me to speed when it’s on but not in sync with the brake sensor. I’ll try all these suggestions. Ugh I hope I can fix it. I’m a widower & single mommy.

[@Prenticetherapper]

I changed the mass flow air sensor, throttle body, coils and spark plugs my car still jerks and when i accelerate there not enough fuel getting to the engine so it stalls when I drive I still haven’t been able to figure it out maybe i have to replace my fuel pump or I have a dirty fuel filter

[@richsumbs8534]

Tips for any 2014 Nissan Altima owners: got P0101 error code then Confirmed I needed a new MAF sensor because despite it being clean I noticed the metal prongs one might of been broken off, Google the oem part , and yes I should have 5 not 4 prongs, Problem started with swerving performance Started with swerving performance , BSW alert came on, If you get the faulty MAF sensor code (P0101)

I have a 2013 Nissan Versa. The transmission is going. But I baby it. I drove it yesterday and while at a light I go to drive and it wouldn’t go over 2K RPMs. Reverse and Neutral it’s fine. This is two days after getting an oil change.

[@Bigbobo54]

I’m having the same exact issue did you ever find out what the problem was?

[@DR-yb9gs]

@@Bigbobo54 I had it towed. Changed the Mass Airflow Sensor and I let it sit for a couple of days. It was okay after doing that.

[@craigslistseller9354]

Hey! Don't forget to change your CVT fluid every 30K miles. Changing the fluid every 30K miles is recommended for EVERY Nissan/Infiniti model, per the factory Maintenance & Service Guide, regardless of transmission type: CVT, conventional automatic or manual. This will ensure smooth and problem-free operation of your Versa's CVT for many miles/years. Versas are great and extremely reliable when maintained and cared for properly.

[@opalpersonal]

2009 nissan altima, full visual inspection yielded nothing; my mechanic suspected the throttle body, as apparently they're known to go out easily. it turned out to be the speed sensor; it was shorting or had bad components. he was quick to tell me his dissatisfaction with this model for it's difficult-to-diagnose issues such as these 😅 hope this helps anyone having the same issue but can't see anything mentioned in the video!

[@JohnFixes]

Good info… thanks for sharing!

[@username10]

Hi, where is that sensor located?

[@opalpersonal]

@ i have no idea, sorry mate. just what my mechanic said, lol here's the other thing- the speed hesitation does still happen, i discovered much later, but only after starting and stopping the car 3 or 4 times in a row. so i have to be careful when running errands, not to make too many stops in too short a time...

[@WalkHard1]

Clean everything out for replace the mass in flow sensor everything and the problem went away for about two months and now every time the car warms up you have to put it in neutral for a second then back into drive to continue accelerating from a stop sign or something
