2003 Nissan Maxima
Failed External Seal on Engine Oil Cooler May Leak
The external seal on the engine oil cooler can fail and create an oil leak.
Camshaft Sensor Leaking Oil Into Connector
The Camshaft position sensor can leak oil into its electrical connector causing the Check Engine light to illuminate. The engine may also stall intermittently as a result.
Drivability Concerns Due to Corroded Ground Inside the Mass Air Flow Sensor
The ground inside mass air flow (MAF) sensor can corrode and possibly cause drivability problems. The corrosion is enough to affect the sensor data but not enough to create a trouble code. Diagnosing this can be difficult because it won't always illuminate the Check Engine Light.
Overheating Due to Stuck Closed Thermostat
The thermostat may become stuck closed, causing an overheating condition. Replacement of the thermostat will be required to correct this concern.
No start or misfire due to failed ignition coil
Problems with the ignition coil will cause the vehicle to misfire or not start.
