-my engine makes loud stutter noise compare to my friends altima. -whenever I step on my brake, my break pedal vibrates and makes stutter sound randomly from the front-I hear ticking noise from my radio screen area randomly as if the plastic isn't glued right or something-rattle from glove compartment randomly.- my rear audio rattle is louder than any song i put....and this is random too.

whenever I go to the dealer they say its normal. I really hate it. If its all the time that this rattlemobile make these sound I can really say something to the dealer but this crazy car do it randomly. anyone know why this might be happening? I will really appreciate experts adviceThank you very much for your time

Sorry to hear that man, I know what you mean.

Apparently the 2.5 is riddled with these problems.

You just have to be persistent, or go to another dealer and tell them the problems. You have to be aggressive. Talk to the service manager hes the only person you need to convince. Physically get him to come out to your car and show him exactly the problems you are having, take him for a drive and tell him to listen to all the rattles and tell them to test your brakes.

That's the only way.

Goodluck.

I started getting brake squeeling @ 7k when I'd try and stop going down hill. finaly got around to taking the car in to have it checked out. they replaced all 4 rotors and pads hmmmm? that in itself scared thec rap out of me. I mean pads & rotors ruined at 7k? that's just crap. anyways other then that the only other problem ive been having is one of my tires keeps going low yet theres no flat tire. the cars in the shop getting fixed from the front end collision I had but yea it's gunna have to go back to the dealer for that as soon as it gets out. it has to be soemthing to do with the tire pressure sensor things Im guessing. who knows though.

My wifes 2.5 had a squeek in the right rear pillar. We knew it was squeeking from the back somewhere, but that was it. I talked to the svc. mgr who had a tech ride with me. He heard the squeek. Then he got in the backseat while I drove and he located it. 30 minutes later I was out the door with no squeek.

If your car is relatively new, you should not be getting shafted with the "that's the way they are B.S." If you get that, then go to the Svc. Mgr and say ride with me in my car, then ride with me in a new one and tell me there is nothing wrong. If you're right, I'll leave you alone. If I'm right, then you go through that car and silence what you need to silence. If he hardballs you, go to the sales mgr and ask if that's what you unknowingly signed up for when you bought one of his or her new cars. Remember, "Fortune Favors the Bold."
