| Quote, originally posted by Stevyong » | G'day Guys, i'm Yong from Malaysia. Extremely happy to find a forum to discuss my in coming Nissan Murano. Home minister was looking to upgrade her Toyota Vios E. Was looking for Toyota Harrier 2,400cc. However, while viewing the Toyota Harrier, there was a Murano 4WD year 2005, 2,500cc next to the Toyota Harrier. First look, wonderful compare to Toyota Harrier. Paid the booking fees and test drive. Found out that the suspensions were very stiff vide run into a pole hole of about 3 inches deep.
Question 1 : Are Murano's suspensions stiffer than Toyota Harrier? 
Question 2 : What is Murano's suspension part number? thought of chaning them.
Other than this concern, no others issue.
Wonderful Murano!!!!!!!!!

WOW! All the way from Malaysia!!!! Warmest welcomes from the staff here at NICOclub! Glad to have you here in the Murano Forum. Sorry I can't help you out, but the Murano's suspension seems to be one of it's selling points. I have no idea what a Toyota Harrier is, we do not have that in the states. Also, all of our Murano's are built with the 3.5 instead of the 2.5 engine. The 2.5 engine is a good engine though. Sorry I could not help you more!

There's no Lexus brand in Asia I guess, unless imported.As far as I know Toyota Harrier is the Asian market of our Lexus RX330 here in US. Some features of Lexus of course is not available to Toyota, although they're sister company. Also, our Lexus GX is the Toyota Prado in Asia. Stevyong, is your Murano there in Malaysia the 1st generation or the 2nd one. 2nd generation suspension is refined or tuned while 1st generation is more sporty in handling, so I'd say it's more stiffer.

I own a Nissan Murano for past 17 months, love most features, only fault is the quality of the suspension, have had to change wheel bearings and stabilizer bar rubbers, and still hear knocking from below, good mileage out of town, noted that my rear view screen has gone from colour to black and white, someone suggested it might be because of my add of an alarm system, FM modulator and IPOD connnection, any second opinion why i have lost the colour to screen

Hi Folks, just joined this forum, although I've been driving Nissan products since 97, I haven't been this excited about picking up a car. I get my new (55km on it) 09 Murano SL Sept. 30th. (company lease).
I've been on a few other Maxima forums over the years and have always tried to contribute, as I have found an abundant of information and wonderful people willing to share their stories and help a fellow with a question.
I'm from Barrie Ontario, Canada. Just north of Toronto, I drive down to Toronto most days. (about 100Km each way).
Although I've always modified my cars in the past (including the leased ones), I'll keep this one to a minimum. K&N filter to start and possibly a CAI later on, depending.
Will be looking for tips on getting the best mileage from the 09.
Time to start looking thru all the topics.
Hope to chat with you soon.Gary

What's up Murano Land? Thought I'd drop a line to introduce myself. I picked up a 07 Murano S last fall. She's treated me awesome so far. Pretty stock, but that's about to change. I have tons of mods in mind, starting with headlight up grade, stereo, tires, rims, brakes, billet grille, a bit more window tint, cold air intake.......etc.Performance and looks are key to me. So check me out in the next few months to see what I'm plugging away on. First matter of business - I'm trying to track down a Murano Projector/Halo Headlight kit. I've spent about 2 hours scouring the web. Nada?! There's heaps of kits for almost every model but Murano.  Hopefully I can find one that is HID compatible. HELP pls!!

Hi all,I am new to this communicty. I bought 2009 Murano S for my wife about 1 month ago. We are very pleased with the car so far with 1200 miles on clock. I hav already done a 600 mil oil/filter change (Yes, I know it is overkill, but I just have to do it). I have owned many cars and been a DIY guy. It is hard to keep up with those electronical gadgets. I still have a couple of 8 track tapes along with records nd cassette tapes sitting in garage. I installed stainless step bar I purchased on eBay and amnow waiting for a Factory OEM fog light kit. I want also to install a backup camera. Well everyone, have a nice Murano life!

Hello to everyone. I just purchased a 2006 Murano SL AWD yesterday.  It's Chardonnay with the Touring Package and sunroof, 35k miles. Cafe latte interior. Nearly perfect exterior. I need to add window vent shields since I usually like to leave my windows cracked and I don't think that will work with the leather interior. It was also missing the cargo net and carpet floor mats so I will probably hunt those down as well. I had my heart set on a Lexus RX330/350/or the hybrid 404h but after reasearching the Murano and driving a few, I just couldn't justify spending the extra $6k-$8k. I'm looking forward to driving my new ride!

Otang76 here, and I just got my Nissan Certified, barely used 2007 Murano S @ 14,400 miles.Always liked the Murano and everyone I asked loved them or knew someone who loved them. I'm excited about having one, but the amount of road noise surprised me. The noise is not bad compared to the Sierra it replaced, but it is louder than I thought. I have been looking into accessories for the Murano and I don't find many. Something like.... better aftermarket stabilizers, or maybe some cool spoiler would be nice. I know the Murano is not your typical project car, it doesn't hurt to dress her up a bit or maybe give her some better performance.
