  • I wanted this Quirky Van for Car Camping. 2004 Nissan Quest 3.5 SL Limited Edition in Autumn Red Metallic. I really liked the interior layout and wanted this old nissan minivan for car camping, stealth camping, van conversion for vanlife. But the TCU failing and ECU issues were too much for me.

    the seats actually fold nearly flat into the floor. I lived in one for two years. I owned three of this model. One had 350,000 miles on it when it got rid of it. I still want another one.

      I was told by a mechanic that they’re pretty solid. Transmissions can maybe be a weak link if anything. Motor mounts on Nissans aren’t that great. Toyota siennas have the best reliability out of the vans but the seats don’t go down into the floor and the doors aren’t as big I do think they’re tougher than the Honda Odyssey of the same or even later years. I did have tranny issue but it was 300,000 miles of hard driving. So I feel I got good use out of it. I got a 2014 ford transit connect and I already have to rebuild the transmission at 130k.

    I remember the commercials for this van when it came out. Was super cool. Especially the sunroof. Though I know this one doesn't have that. That center dash and the sunroof were super sleek.

    The power actuated rear vents are great with kids but it is actually a detractor to converting to a camper.

    Debating which minivan to get for camping. At the moment I'm considering the Nissan Quest. I'm kind of sold on the Caravan and Town and Country for the stow and go seats. Would you say that the quest has similar "floor"-to-ceiling space as one of those? I'm suspecting less... Looking at those seats folded down here, it seems that there's not a whole lot more floor / ceiling height than I get in my SUV with all the seats folded flat. Hard to get a sense of scale, though.
    Thanks for this video, very comprehensive. Greetings from the Wet Coast🇨🇦

      I always go by the rule if I see too many of one making model of one vehicle in a used car lot that is usually a very bad sign and in my area there seems to be a lot of Dodge Chrysler minivans and used car lots

    I hate when manufacturers put in a tan/beige/light brown interior, but then the steering wheel and a few panels are black.... Anyway, there are SO MANY red flags with this particular car, you should run as fast as you can away from it... It’s probably not worth the dirt it stands on. The model itself is probably good, but find a better one if you’re really set on getting one.

    As I watched this video I was yelling nooooo!!!, I was a Nissan master tech in the states for 13 years and that year of quest had so many known issues. Corrosion on the grounds and ground cable to trans might be where those codes were coming from.

      Yep, the main ground wide went south but was an easy fix. The bigger issue is the mainframes rust out as the A/C tube drips direct on the frame rails causing them rust. There was a hidden warranty on that part back in the day. Lastly, the ECU computer box was mounted outside (unlike most cars where it's mounted under the passenger seat) and could be damaged by corrosion and water infiltration. If you can get to it soon enough, you can remove it, clean it up and seal it once and for all. If the control until fries, It's a several thousand dollars repair. Oh, and the timing chain guide nylon guide breaks an the chain rattles. Eventually it will skip an out the van out of timing (however it is a non-interference engine so no serious damage. Have to remove the engine to fix a $71 part which gets really expensive

    DONT BUY IT! NOOOOOO! I own one. They are a constant source of work and repairs. They do come loaded with everything. $2k is a good price. We paid $3,500 for ours. Ours is Gold. The 04 is the test year for it. Ours has no rust. What a joke a car can be rejected for rust in your state. In Michigan, it would be like every other car. Why is it a car in one state is fine to own, yet another state it is bad because of rust. Thats sad.

      @netcruzer  4 года назад +5

      I looked but I’m being cheap. Trying to find something under $5K on the road but safe and reliable. Because a new car will be a funds drain at same time as I’m paying for engine rebuild on the VW westfalia. I’m on a low/no debt plan for this. Just pay for it all outright.
