Including the thousand dollar rebate offered the last weekof October, we purchased our '09 Murano 5400 belowMSRP. We were thrilled with the deal (though we thinkthere may be even better ones coming up which will begood for those waiting to buy.)
We are currently on our first road trip with the MO., justtoday breaking 500 on the mileage and we have a couplequestions...(probably more to come later)
Has anyone detached the rear center seat belt?There are just two of us at home now, and we willlikely NEVER use the center rear seat for apassenger. If we should, we would of coursere-attach it. It bothers the female (me) in the familywhen looking out the rear view mirror, especially inthe evening hours.
The AC/heat....do you simple turn off the AC and the system defaults toheat? We have not had to use the heater until today, andit didn't seem to put out very warm air with the setting on 70.Maybe we just need to move it up a couple degrees?
Love the car!Love the forum! ..Very, very helpful!!Thanks,Jill
Welcome to NICOclub Jill!!!! We are excited to have you here in the Murano Forum!
It sounds like you may have gotten one of the best deals yet on the new (and very sweet) Murano!
Trust me, I agree with you on the center belt. YES, detach it and neatly store it into the ceiling holder. It is pretty easy to do, but if you have any problems let me know, I can always take a picture of mine for you.
As far as the Heat/AC goes, if the AC button is NOT illuminated, then yes, you are in heat mode. You may want to try bumping it up to 75, then you tend to feel the heat a lot more, and once winter is in full force, crank that baby to 90. Also, being that the Murano has such an efficient, high performance engine, it does take a few miles to heat up to where it throws hot air, my Armada on the other hand heats to full force a mile down the road, just a difference in engines.
Glad to have you on board Jill, let us know how you enjoy the new ride, and please, keep in touch with any questions!
