Does anyone know how I can get a Nissan Factory Service Manual for a 2018 Altima?

I am in dire need!

Thanks!

Unfortunately we can no longer update the FSM's. Nissan North America cut off access to ALL FSMs in 2015 -16. We were able to get partial ones for certain vehicles, but this was a corporate decision, so there's not much we can do about it. NNA changed the formatting on the FSM's so that they are no longer in a downloadable PDF format.

If you find that you do need the 2018 FSM, it is available from Nissan.

The 2018 Altima Service Manual is available on CD for $210.00 (USD)
Or you can purchase an Online Subscription to view it on their website:
1. One Year Subscription $720.00
2. 90 day Subscription $225.00
3. 30 day Subscription $75.00
4. One day Subscription $19.99

Not something I need to deal with since I have access to ASIST, so I haven't looked in awhile -- I don't see the CD option available on the nissan-techinfo site anymore. Do you happen to know if they just moved the furniture, or did they stop doing CD's?

I really appreciate you and all the others who are so willing to serve up your time and experience. Thanks!

Thanks!

I am doing a brake job and since it is for my son, I decided not to simply use the 2016 FSM and followed your recommendation for 1 day at $19.99.

Thanks, again!

I realize your post was directed to Rogue One, but let me mention that I searched high and low and could not find the FSM for 2018 model year.

I am doing a brake job for my son, would it have been prudent to simply use the 2016 FSM?

Thanks, again!

Well fudge. It's been a hot minute since I've looked at the site. I guess they pulled the CD's on the off chance someone would copy the files and post them. :mad:

Your profile says that you have a 2007 Infiniti G35 3.5L V6 so the FSM is available.

I have manuals for my G35, but thanks anyway. The manuals for the 2018 Altima are needed by my brother.

You can't get one past '16, but for the Altima, about 95% of what's in the '16 FSM applies to the '18. There is a '16 FSM here.
