I bought an 09 Murano after owning a 2003 g35 that I absolutely loved and had 0 issues over the years. The Murano has a similar 3.5 engine with reduced power. The murano so far is doing great. Fingers cross CVT holds up. I didn't read about the 09 issues until after I bought it. However other 09s I was looking at where around 200,000 km and going strong. Bought mine with 118,000km.

[@Squatch76]

Yeah I have an 09 Murano with 123,000 miles. No real issues and I drive it like a old lady. How is yours doing these days?

[@jordan4220]

@@Squatch76 still fine, power steering pump died and was a nightmare to change. Another issue I ran into is it likes to flood when it gets below 0c. I assume it's a leaky injector seal. But if you put the gas pedal to the floor while starting, it turns off the injectors and clears the flooded cylinder while cranking. Then starts up like normal. I wish I would have known that trick when it first started doing that.

[@jordan4220]

Status update, alternator died and had to change it in -25c. It was a terrible job, these things are awful to work on. Ps pump was easy compared to alt. CVT seems still ok but now have fuel injector problems and I think timing chain tensioners are going.

I rather get into the Murano then keep this Liberty, only because I've been told once the 3.7 hits 140xxx miles they are know to have major engine issues.

[@Crittery]

My mother in law purchased a 2021 murano. Around 6 months later the seatbelts started to have serious complications hooking. Not to mention it stuttered and completely shut off when starting to cross a rural bridge like it was in shock (I guess it had to get its bearings to cross it because I couldn't start it up for a good minute.) I'm thinking it wasn't programmed for that situation because Google maps didn't know the location very well(?). Also, it will brake unnecessarily sometimes, especially if someone in the lane next to you turns on their signal light to turn opposite of you. On top of that, when my dog lays his head down close to the shifter, it moves it from drive, usually into 2nd gear, while I'm driving (I drive it the most since my mother in law is up in age, yet she just had to have a new car. She had a great one, old, but low miles she sold cheap to someone in the family for their daughter, well, the daughter checked the oil about as good as my husband does so the low mileage engine didn't make it.) I could probably go on. I personally would've done something by now but, you'd have to know my husband and mother in law 😳😂

Scotty, you might think about possibly partnering with someone and writing a quality book on the use of your ‘fancy’ diagnostic scan tool. Or writing one yourself.

You could contact a publisher and test the waters. They might be able to suggest an experienced writer to assist. After it is written, you could tell everyone about it and really get a jump on everyone else.

[@DavidKing-wk1ws]

I find your channel very informative. I personally have never owned a new car. Meaning anything past 95. I tried however the problem is with the prices of new vehicles being what they are and the fact that when you goto a new car dealership for this high cost they are only willing to give you options like leather seats and the like. If i going to pay the ammount of money they are asking for a new car. I want it the way i want the car not the way they feel like giving it to me. The last time i tried to buy a new car was 1993. I whent to the dealership prepaired to buy it right then. Having worked in a shop i told them how i wanted the car. They told me it was not possible to get a new mustang the way i wanted it. So to this day i have never owned a new car and probably never will. If a new car (2021 model) does not come with a carb and a manual choke, ill stick with putting it together myself. I have worked on these new plasti mobiles and for the price they are asking ill either get it the way i want it or not at all ! Looking at how these modern expensive throw away junk mobiles age, i dont think im missing much.

Are there any mechanically issues I should look out for and was it a good idea buying from a car broker?

[@neotuber1776]

Scotty I really like this video, but 90% of those codes are likely set because the battery died at some point. Clear codes and see what comes back, also Fluid Pressure Low code in the TCM means the CVT is about to take a dump. If you go into Data Monitor for the TCM and monitor CVT-A and CVT-B it should always be 0, CVT-A/B is NOT 0 then there has been either overheated fluid or internal damage to the CVT.

[@robc7323]

I have an 07 Murano with ~175k miles and it has been an "OK" car... not great.. just OK. I had to put a new power steering hose on recently (common problem with certain years), change the oil cooler gasket (another common problem but easy fix), change a couple of those fluid filled motor mounts (a royal pain), replace a couple of ignition coils, and repeatedly snake out my sunroof drains to prevent it from leaking inside the car (PITA to access exit side of drain). The plugs are also a bear since you have to take off the intake manifold to access the back 3 in the transverse V6 but only have to change every 100k-ish. I have also had a couple of drain and fills on the CVT since I got it used ~2012. It survived a regular 75-90 minute commute (one way) for several years in the bay area without stranding me. Fortunately, I have been able to complete the repair/maintenance work myself. If it makes it to 200k with the CVT intact I will be satisfied. I have always been paranoid about the crappy CVT so I am gentle on the accelerator. It is a FWD and I did notice it was made in Japan so maybe that helps? I am not sure where the newer ones are made/assembled. Like Scotty said, just don't pay too much.

That’s not ok. Way too much crap to deal with

Had a problem with low voltage charging on one of these. Even after 2 new alternators and replacing the ground wires which i was told were the most common problems.

[@AirplaneFreak]

Dealing with our 2005 Murano AWD SL model, the A/C doesn't work, rust on the rear wheel wells, oil leaks with these VQ35DE engines, and I had to drill several holes in the back to get some nuts to hold the striker in place for the rear door. Oh, and the exhaust pipe assembly is completely separated from the rest of the pipe in the back so it needs a whole new exhaust system with new catalytic converters. (The cats are notorious for getting plugged up)

You remind me of my old highschool auto shop teacher 😂

[@MCGaar]

I wish the new F1 50s would come out as often as Scotty’s videos. Waiting till March for a Lariat I ordered !

[@beealert911]

Scotty, Tennessee has given you more energy. I can’t keep up with your posts. Thanks for the videos and educational information. 😊

[@PinoyPadyakero]

Scotty for Secretary of Transportation!

[@cherifaidara4244]

I’m confused. We have a 2014 Altima with 144k miles and still drives with no problems. Depends on how you drive and maintenance.

[@BA-gn3qb]

Scotty is wearing his Canadian Tuxedo, now he's in cold Tennessee. (Hoodie with a jean jacket)

[@alelectric2767]

That’s the new version. The old one was with a cut off lumberjacket in place of the hoodie. LOL!

I have a 2007 Nissan Murano SL AWD with 150k miles. I bought it 1 year ago for $5k and I’ve already put $4k into it in repairs (car drove amazing when I first bought it). It’s in the shop right now for the 2nd time within 2 weeks for the transmission. I find out in a few days if the transmission is done for good or not. ANYWAY, for close to a year, I’ve been hearing this strange almost grinding noise where my left front wheel area is. Specifically when I’m going slow and or turning into a parking spot/drive through. I was told by multiple shops there’s nothing wrong with it with the car. The grinding and crazy noises have been getting worse, and happening at all times when I was driving. the worst was today and sounded like the car was about to fall apart so I took it in right away. Well, this whole time I’ve been thinking it’s the wheel area but it’s actually the transmission making these crazy sounds, mimicking noises that was almost similar to a bad wheel bearing or something similar in that area. Definitely wasn’t expecting them to say it’s the transmission at all. Just putting that out there for anyone that may be experiencing this and not getting answers/being told the car is fine. Because all this time, the transmission has gotten worse for a year straight when it could’ve been fixed before it got this bad. I hope maybe this will help someone since I’m now in a bad situation with the car

[@blackalgorithmist000]

Damn That's good information though hopefully you have better luck with your next vehicle

[@Lo0se369]

Scotty we got ur bac!! keep doin wat u doin

[@jasonlee8486]

i have a 04 Murano 160,000 miles trans works great had it for years no issues

[@JHsillypantsMcGee]

I found 2012 and 2013 were the best for the cvt. My 2012 has 210,000 kms and drive perfectly fine.

[@bradnail99]

This is comforting to hear. I drive a 2012 Murano that I bought new. It has 57,000 miles and I’m planning to change the CVT fluid and both filters. It has been extremely reliable the last 11 years.

[@JHsillypantsMcGee]

My 2012 has 260,000 kms and drives great. although I learned today the transfer case can by a problem for these vehicles.

[@seewhyem]

every time I scan a Nissan.. it always has a ton of errors!!

[@felmin809]

How about Toyota and Hondas

[@barrymccaulkiner7092]

2012 Toyota Highlanders with 175000 miles are still going for over $10k. Goes to show how much less Nissans are worth on the market, new or used.

[@kevinm2025]

But Toyota are the cheapest feeling tin cans .......btw Nissan never murdered people with out of control cars with stuck pedals.

[@whatthehell1012]

Love ya work Scotty!

[@davidnikulka1437]

Scottie love you man. Thanks. My break peddle locked at the top when i hit glair ice . No ABS actuated and no feathering the breaks either ?

[@ozzyozcorn]

Thank you for making me laugh today!

[@Alexxela19202]

I got an 08 murano it never failed keep up on your maintenance and fluid replacements and it’s just like any other “good” car just fine had it for 12 years 189k miles

[@rrich52806]

My 2014 Nissan versa 2 years ago for $6000, with 25000 miles. Manual trans, window and door locks. Not bad IMHO

[@shineautomotive]

[@philipbenoit8515]

I just bought a 09 Murano and didn't know anything about this until i accidentally stumbled upon this video! The car performs great (236,000) miles currently and i don't know if the previous owner ever changed the transmission fluid before. Should i leave it alone? Or drain and replace? Thanks

[@3dtrip870]

Scott I am a new follower; I am a rookie when it comes to working on vehicles, but I want to start on a 2011 Ford Ranger we just got. Any suggestions on what is a good place to start, vs what should be left to the pros until I have more experience?

[@summitwhite_lb7]

I’m new to this channel. My friend bought a retired police car that is a 2012 Dodge Charger with a 5.7L. Can you make a video of common “problems/issues” and perhaps include what are the best performance mods? If there’s already a video, can someone tag me in it?

[@myotherusername9224]

"let's say you don't trust anybody..." [picture of 'Pope' Francis with children] ... spicy.

Waiting for Scotty to make a ⛄ snowman.

[@joenissan]

Our 2011 mutant sl has 130k miles and has never seen the inside of a dealership. Perfect
