Q: How to get better gas mileage out of a 99 Nissan Sentra GXE limited edition?
From what i have heard my nissan sentra is suppose to get around 33-36 MPG on the highway. Well my car usually only gets around 28 miles to the gallon right now, and i have been trying out the lucas fuel injector cleaner, its seems to work for about 2 days then its goes to bad gas mileage again. Also i think i have to take into consideration is that it also is near 220,000 to 230,000 miles on it. can anybody give me tips please.

A: It’s supposed to get that mileage when new, after 220,000 miles, 28 it probably good.

Q: What amp wattage does the stock Nissan Sentra 2005 Special edition have?
I just bought two 12′ Kicker comp subs and I’m thinking I may have to buy a new amp to go with them but I know the special edition Nissan Sentra has a rockford system built into it. I doubt it has enough power in the stock amp but I was wondering if it’s worth a try.

A: You could try to hook up the two 12″ the stock 10″ woofer amp may make those kickers move a little. Stock rockford fosgate Stereo put out only 140 watts. But your right if you want any kind of sustained bass better get a good 1000 watt power amp.

Q: How do I get the door panel off of a 1993 Nissan Sentra?
I have to replace the driver’s side mirror of my 1993 Nissan Sentra. Can anyone talk me through taking off the door panel without screwing anything else up?
The door doesn’t have power windows, either, just manual. I’ve taken all the screws out, but it’s still giving me trouble. What am I missing?

A: After removing all screws 1,remove clip from window winder handle,use small screwdriver or a good trick is to put a hand kerchief between the winder and door panel and pull it around the winder it will remove the clip,put your fingers between door panel and the door and pull panel towards you all the way around until panel is removed ,lift up the top of the panel to release it from the top of the door ,make sure all screws are removed first. good luck

Q: How much does it cost to fix an air conditioning unit in a 96 Nissan Sentra?
If you could also tell me what a 96 Nissan Sentra GXE should be worth, knowing that the air conditioner needs to be fixed?
The car is being sold for 2800, the KBB states this car should be worth 2200-2700 (fair to good), there is something wrong with the air conditioner, it not just empty.

A: go to kelly blue book .com for your info on net worth of vehicle, and if the a/c only needs a shot of freon it would only be in the neighborhood of 49 $ …….is the car worth it ? thats what you need to find out from kelly. does this help ?

Q: Where is the coolant temperature sensor on a 2002 Nissan Sentra?
After researching the “check engine” light for my 2002 Nissan Sentra, I’ve determined that the thermostat and coolant temperature sensor needed to be replaced. I swapped out the old thermostat for a new one, but I am having difficulty locating this coolant temperature sensor. I know absolutely nothing about car engines, and I keep on hearing more about the intake manifold and how it’s located near the fuel pressure regulator. I also have a Haines manual for my car, but the picture it provides is not helpful (3-7, figures 9.3a and 9.3b, to be specific). If anyone has any more specifics about the location of this, that would be MOST APPRECIATED! I went to Aamco and they quoted me at $200 to replace both parts. When I went to a local car parts store, I bought both parts for less than $40 and the thermostat replacement was very simple. It looks about the same for the coolant temperature sensor, I just can’t find the dang thing! Thanks for any help and clarification on this!!!
That’s exactly it, JP. I came up with a P0128 error and it was recommended that I replace both things because that would certainly take care of the problem.

A: You did not see it? On the 1.8 liter engine behind the alternator screwed into the Cly head that is the ECT (engine coolant temp sensor) sensor it has two wires. The temp sender for water temp instrument cluster is on the other side of the exhaust manifold and has only one wire. ECT codes are P0117 and P0118 indicates either to low voltage shorted or to high voltage open circuit. Or did your car produce a Thermostat function code P0128 and the heater is not getting hot?

Q: How do I sell my used Nissan Sentra in less than a month?
I currently live in Michigan (Ann Arbor) but am moving to New York in a month. I want to get rid of my 1999 Nissan Sentra (95,000 mile). What is the best and fastest way of selling this car? I’m asking for $2500. Is that too cheap? I posted an ad on craigslist but would it be quicker to try a dealer?

I’m in Cleveland, Ohio and I’m trying to price check clutches for my Nissan Sentra. How much would one be to replace the one that’s going?

A: That depends are you doing the work yourself ?

If so then go online to your local parts stores and price a clutch kit. I did one for you at Advanced Auto: Beck/Arnley Clutch Set Part No. 061-9123 $161.99

If you have a shop do it for you, double or triple that cost with labor included.

Q: What did you pay out the door for 2011 Nissan Sentra?
I’m going to buy a 2011 Nissan Sentra, but I kind of want to get an idea of what other people are paying for it to see if I got a good deal. I’m getting the 2011 Nissan Sentra SR for $15,634 out the door, including taxes, fees, and tag. What did you pay for the Nissan Sentra, if you have one?

A: SR is a really Nice Sentra Have you used the Nissan web site? “nissanusa.com” those prices are manufactures suggested retail prices MSRP And become a educated customer as to features and options and prices most of all get pre approval from your bank or lender know what interest rates and contract length of finance contract do to your car payment. Total pay back might be 25,000+ 6 years from now if that does not scare you I think a new car for the Holidays is a great thing. Barter for the best price. Never throw in a huge down payment. Save that money to pay down principle make sure there is no early payment penalty. Good Luck
