My 2010 Challenge to you...

Postby Promise Land » Thu Dec 31, 2009 2:47 pm



I have an ambitious idea for 2010. What if we take the best questions posed over the last few years and get them answered in the FAQ? I've only been around for about 9 months, and I've already seen many questions asked time and time again.

If we went ahead with the idea, what questions would you ask?
1. Where is my front tow hook and where does it go?
2. Is the A/C light supposed to come on when I rotate the dial?
3. How to fix a center dash rattle?
4. How to change auto lock/unlock settings?
5. How to install lowering springs?
6. How to install a front strut bar?
7. How to install a cold air intake?
8. How to change out a headlamp?
9. Where do I jack up the car from?
10. How to install foglamps when my Versa didn't come with them?
11. How to change out a radio?
12. How do I reset the air bag light?
13. How do I reset power window auto up function?
14. The difference between Nissan's 33psi and Continentals 44psi.
15. How to remove a headlamp bulb
16. How to remove a taillight bulb
17. How to maximize your comfort with the seats
18. Adjusting headlight / foglight angle
19. How to change a tire and use the jack properly
20. How to change the remote keyfob battery?
21. Where are all the fuses in the Versa?

Any more ideas?

We'll be adding the differences between S & SL, the Tiida vs Versa, and the different model years.

I added Week 3, which deals with TPMS. Enjoy!

Week 4 is up. Learn how to change your in-cabin microfilter. Don't pay $90 for the dealer to do it! Do it yourself in 15 minutes for less than $20 (just the cost of the filter)!

See "History of the Versa" thread. It breaks down every year of the Versa and all the differences of the models.

Great idea time for some of the Versa owners to whip out those flash camcorders and get some how to videos up.. I have a couple of parts going on soon when the work is being done i'll try to remember to bring my flash camcorder.

Here are some nice easy to use camera's to use to shoot video with,

1) Flip HD they do 720p and 1080p

2) Kodak Zi6 720p or Zi8 720p and 1080p

3) Creative Vado 720p I use this one it has good lighting contrasts and wide angle lens as well..

I am in the process of getting an exhaust, NISMO suspension kit, and strut bar. I'll have them up in a couple months. I have to buy as I have the money available.

I don't think so unless he gave it to Codelicious (he is running the tech site). I'll take multiples of it anyway. The more the merrier.

How about

Installing a protective mesh behind the grille to protect the radiator from bugs and road debris.

Changing out the car's horn.

Also, a lot of people and dealers are unaware that the passenger-side front seat becomes a flat 6 foot bed. Pull the front seat all the way forward, remove the headrest and recline the seat until it matches up with the front of the back seat. It matches up perfectly and is great for taking a quick nap on a long drive.
