Up for sale is my 2006 Nissan Murano SL AWD w/ CVT transmission. It is gray with a black cloth interior. Personally owned for 4 years, the car has been cared for intimately with meticulous maintenance and tasteful upgrades. Each upgrade and maintenance item is listed in detail below:

Engine

Runs like a finely tuned VQ35DE should. Well cared for with 5W-30 Mobil One and fresh filters every 5,000 miles since I picked her up. No sludge buildup over the years.
At 101,000, the following were replaced with new OEM parts: timing chain tensioners, timing chain guides, water pump, water pump gasket, crank position sensor, alternator, oil cooler gasket, oil cooler line, all front and main seals, fresh spark plugs, ingition coils, valve cover and gasket.
At 102,000, I installed a Kinetix stainless steel intake manifold, Injen cold air intake, NWP Engineering thermal intake manifold spacer, and 2JR light weight crank pulley. Recalibrated air/fuel ratio with Consult II to ensure motor runs cooler and efficient thus ensuring extended life of motor and accessories.
At 109,000, I performed a coolant flush for maintenance. Car does not burn any coolant and head gasket is in good shape.

Transmission & Transfer Case

All seals between CVT, transfer case and motor were replaced at 101,000 while motor was serviced. Full flushes with recommended fluids performed at the same time. Shifts smooth, is predictable, and runs strong. No issue whatsoever with both these items.
AWD tested and works flawlessly.

Also note – Nissan has an extended warranty that applies to this car for the CVT:

“First, to provide you with additional assurance regarding your overall cost of ownership we have doubled the warranty period for the Continuously Variable Transmission in your Nissan. The existing powertrain warranty coverage of 5 years/60,000 miles will be extended at no cost to you, for CVT repairs, replacements or related towing, to 10 years/120,000 miles, whichever comes first.”

This means you still get comprehensive CVT coverage when purchasing this car for another 7,000 miles or 2 years – whichever comes first.

Exhaust

At 106,000, I installed a new Y-Pipe which included a brand new catalytic converter, Magnaflow center resonator, and Flowmaster rear muffler. I kept the OEM exahust tips to ensure a clean, stock look. All work performed by an exhaust shop with welded joints, custom connecting pipes, and new flanges. 2 new A/F upstream sensors replaced as well as 2 downstream O2 sensors at the time of installation keep this car emissions friendly. Murano sounds very throaty and deep, similar to the growl heard on the Infinity QX SUV. This is the best VQ35DE I have ever heard. Not one sign of annoying rasp. You only get a deep, throaty, satisfying engine growl. Truly a pleasure to drive.

Suspension

At 98,000, I installed H&R springs with new KYB shocks all around. Upfront I replaced both control arms with 100% new versions, which included new ball joints. Also installed were new outer tie rod ends on both sides, both half shafts (axles) as well as the driver side wheel bearing. All camber/caster was adjusted with 4 wheel alignment. Steering is straight and tight. Car rides extremely smooth.
Wheels have some blemishes here and there but otherwise good shape.
Tires have 80% tread life. They are 235/60/18 Michelin Primacy MXV4. I purchased these for the stellar reviews. They ride extremely quiet, smooth, and grip in all seasons without hesitation. I truly believe tires can make or break a vehicle's handling capabilities and took no chances with this choice.
4 wheel alignment performed at 109,000. Car rides very straight and smooth.
Front brakes are good with about 50% life, rear a little less with about 30% remaining. Cross drilled rotors have about 70% life left. Plenty of meat left for another go around with new pads.

Body

Body is in good shape with minor dings and marks on the bumper covers as expected on a vehicle with 100,000 miles. Badges were shaved off the trunk lid. Headlight housings have been replaced with darker versions to add to the look of the vehicle. E&G Classics Z Style polished grill installed. OEM grill included with purchase in case you want to swap them out.

Interior

Cloth seats and upholstery in excellent shape. Non-smoker. No holes, runs or blemishes. Typical minor wear marks on steering wheel, shifter, and silver center console trim pieces. All function well. Silver cupholder door needs persuading to close. It's not outright broken and will fold up/down, but I felt obligated to mention it as it obviously is not smooth like new.
Black Weathertec laser molded all-weather front floor mats purchased as soon as I picked up the vehicle. I've always driven with these mats and because of this the carpet beneath them is in excellent shape. You'll see in the pics the rugs are perfect. Weathertec mats come with the car.
In dash Sony DVD/CD player will full size touch screen. Car came W/O Bose system. Metra installation kit integrated with HVAC controls. Looks sharp, sounds great! Bypass kit installed for DVD player so passenger and guests can enjoy video while you are driving and focused on the road.
Back up camera, HVAC, and vehicle diagnostic system work great.

General & Terms

I feel I have posted enough details and pictures to help you make an informed purchase. If for any reason you want additional information, please do not hesitate to contact me. I understand the implications of purchasing a used vehicle and feel this Murano will last you years on end with little to no attention to anything other than the typical maintenance items such as oil, brakes, etc. Drive and go. It truly is a pleasure to drive. Tight steering and handling plus the added horsepower throughout the power band make any drive very satisfying. I am selling this vehicle because I want a full size pick up as I do a lot of side work which requires bed space.

I will gladly accept a cashiers check or cash if you are local. No Paypal deposit required. You are required to contact me or provide a number within 1 business day of auction end so we can facilitate the transaction.

Thanks for looking!

Pretty scenery alert: Nissan Leaf drives up a volcano on Maui

Fri, Apr 11 2014

Gravity taketh away but gravity giveth back, Nissan is trying to teach all of us. The Japanese automaker has posted a two-minute video about Maui resident Neil Wagner using his Nissan Leaf to catch the legendary sunrise over the volcano in Haleakala National Park. After climbing the more-than-10,000-foot elevation, the Leaf is shown having lost about 84 percent of its usable battery capacity. The finer point, though, is that electric vehicles have a regenerative braking system, meaning that the downhill ride and all of its switchbacks actually replenish battery capacity. Of course, the video didn't show exactly how much of that capacity was replenished, but the point is well-made, and with really cool scenery. Sales for the Leaf have already been strong this year. Through the first three months of the year, Nissan boosted sales 46 percent from 2013 numbers up to 5,184 units. This is after more than doubling sales last year to 22,610 units. And, for anyone curious, there are six publicly-accessible plug-in vehicle charging stations in Kahului and another eight in Lahaina, two of Maui's largest cities, according to the US Department of Energy. We're pretty sure that Mr. Wagner already knows that but we're going to take notes in case we need to make the sunrise drive one day. For now, we're going to check out Nissan's two-minute video below one more time. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.

2014 Nissan Rogue

Fri, 01 Nov 2013

When I first started in this whole automotive journalism biz, I held a sort of hodgepodge receptionist/gopher/production assistant role, and each morning as the staff filed in, I'd ask them how they liked whatever car they were assigned to drive the previous night. Most of my colleagues would regale me with anecdotes about how good or bad a vehicle was, but one co-worker, every single morning, would answer my query with the exact same phrase: "It was fine."
I always assumed this was just a brush-off, an "ask me again after I've had a cup of coffee" sort of response. But then I found myself in a similar moment of brevity following the launch of the 2014 Nissan Rogue earlier this week. After returning home, a friend asked me what I thought of the new Rogue, and I replied, word for word, "It was fine."
And, well, it was. Nothing worth wasting exclamation points over, good or bad. Aside from something like the interesting-to-drive Mazda CX-5 or funky-looking Jeep Cherokee, nothing in this class really tries to set the world on fire. And that, right there, is fine. Nissan doesn't need to do anything crazy with its second-generation Rogue. It just needs to offer a well-equipped crossover that's handsome, functional, efficient and priced right - sticking to the same formula that made the first-generation model so successful while offering the latest crop of creature comforts in a more modern package.

Ghosn flight prompts renewed focus on Japan's strict justice system

Thu, Jan 2 2020

TOKYO — Carlos Ghosn's daring flight from Japan, where he was awaiting trial on charges of financial wrongdoing, has revived global criticism of the nation's "hostage justice," but in Japan is prompting talk of reversing more lenient curbs on defendants. The ousted boss of Japan's Nissan and France's Renault fled to Lebanon, saying on Tuesday that he had "escaped injustice" and would "no longer be held hostage by a rigged Japanese justice system." Ghosn was first arrested in November 2018 when his private jet landed in Tokyo and kept in jail for more than 100 days as prosecutors added more charges, all of which he has denied. He was released on $9 million bail in March Â— only to be arrested and bailed again the following month. He was facing four charges, including underreporting his Nissan salary and transferring personal financial losses to his employer's books while he ran Japan's No. 2 automaker. His apparent escape from Japan's legal system Â— Tokyo and Lebanon don't have an extradition treaty Â— will likely halt or even reverse a trend of recent years toward granting bail in more cases, said Colin Jones, a law professor at Doshisha Law School in Kyoto. Â“I would expect it to be more difficult for foreign defendants to get bail,Â” Jones said. In Japan, suspects who deny the charges against them are often detained for long periods and subject to intense questioning without a lawyer present, a system critics call "hostage justice." Japanese civil rights groups and the main bar lawyers association have long criticized a system that convicts 99.9% of criminal defendants. They say it gives too much power to prosecutors, who can detain suspects for long periods before indictment, and relies too much on confessions, some later found to have been forced and false. Ghosn's escape is clearly a shock to Japan's legal establishment. "This case raises the extremely serious issue of whether it's all right to continue the trend toward bail leniency," said former prosecutor Yasuyuki Takai. "The legal profession and lawmakers need to quickly consider new legal measures or a system to prevent such escapes," Takai, who was formerly with the special investigation unit of the prosecutor's office, told public broadcaster NHK.
