i bought this car 4 months ago. First engine light was one o2 sensor, cost $350 to fix. Second time, all three o2 sensors came bad, cost $735 to fix. Is this car worth keeping?

O2 sensors are really not a sign of a bad car, but if you keep having to replace them the diagnosis may be the problem not your car. Take it to a different service center for a second opinion.

do not ignore approximately your verify engine easy flashing easy means you would be inflicting harm on your cat converters. 25 miles won't do a lot harm rigidity easily. commonly a engine misfire will flash your CEL that uncooked gas from misfire over heats the cats. Fan velocity controller or resistor isn't very high priced you will possibly desire to turn 2 screws do it your self. Nissan O2 sensors are approximately $a hundred and seventy to $a hundred and eighty each and each. Nissan o2 have maximum suitable plugs and suited wires with clips. New ingnition coils are around $a hundred and eighty+ each and each do spark plugs if the coils are replaced. waiting for issues to head away isn't a sturdy theory.

Well, once you've put work into it and everything is new then you can guess things won't go wrong for a while. The engine light coming on could just be hoses that need to be replaced. Next time when you take your car in, ask them to look at the engine/transmission and see if anything major is wrong - and take it to the dealer, they will tell you the truth.

If you're fixing the same thing over and over, look into the Lemon Laws in your state. Nissan might buy your car back from you if it's found that you have a lemon.
