Hi everyone,

This is my first post here on the forum. I've been reading a lot and am looking forward to be more active here! I just picked up a 2007 Murano SL yesterday and I've noticed a few things that I'm unsure of that I'd appreciate any input on!

First I love the Mo so far aside from these little things! One thing I noticed was the AWD light is on. I asked the dealer I purchased from and said they are waiting on a sensor and will have it replaced when it comes in. Does that sound right? Also I noticed one of my front tires is different than the others. Will this cause any issues with AWD or anything?

Also, I hear a squeaking type noise when parked idling and the engine is under load. Once the load cycles off the noise goes a way. It's not loud just audible enough to hear. Maybe belts?

Last is a vibration from the steering wheel/dash while idling. I notice when starting the car it seems to have a vibration to it. After its warm the rpms will be around 8-900 at times sometimes going down to about 7-750. When it goes lower to around 7-750 it smooths out. I notice that with the heat on the idle goes up and I get the vibration. When coming to a stop the car is a bit more difficult to stop as if it pulls some because of the higher idle. But if I shut the heat off drive and come to a stop its more smooth.. Also the higher the fan is for the heat the louder it seems to be with more vibration.. Any ideas at all what these can be? I am bringing it to the dealer I got it from late this week or early next week for the awd sensor and will address these other items as well. Just want a heads up prior to doing so!

Thanks for any and all feedback!

Good morning. So just an update. This morning I get into my Mo and the vibration on cold start is more of a noise than vibration I noticed today. Also the vibration with the heat on wasn't there today. Yesterday when coming to a stop I explained the idle would be high around 1000 right before the stop which would feel
Like it was pulling forward still but this morning that wasn't there.. I'm going to keep driving the next couple days and see what happens. any feedback is appreciated!!

Thanks.
