I bought my Nissan Altima Sport Coupe 3.5 brand new in 2008 and I've never had any issues with it. I've had 4 brand new cars since that time as second/third car and they've all had issues at some point or another. My Nissan is my most reliable car that I have. I do all of my own maintenance on it and it hasn't blown up yet. Hopefully others have had the same experience. EDIT: Was involved in an accident last week (4/16/2024) a drunk lady T-boned my car running a red light and totaled it. I'm devastated about it however, I had 16 good years with that car. Just bought a 2002 Toyota Camry with 92,000 miles in excellent condition for $4,800. Will always miss my Altima RIP...
Same. 2010 SR Sedan. No issues whatsoever. Do my own maintenance including changing CVT fluid every 60K. (Car has 158K on it, purchased at 50K from Carmax)
I had a 2008 3.5 and absolutely loved it. Traded it in for a 2009 370Z. I really love the Z but miss the Altima. I could drive the Altima all year (Midwest) and the Z sits in storage.
i have a 2008 nissan altima 2.5 S coupe also it did so good paid it off then i had a bad radiator an fixed it then blower fan went out then blown head gotta new engine looked like it was from a 2009 coupe they usally last up to 150,000 miles an its a bad year all the way around but i loved the 2008 for sure
I just bought a 2008 with 190,000 from a junkyard for dirt cheap! The dash is sticky, but the rest of the car is amazing! It had been involved in an accident, and was missing a headlight and a fender, but the junkyard supplied both to me when I bought the car! It seems to be really tough! Both the engine and trans at 190,000, but it could be a rare circumstance, but I paid so little for it, that I think I could have the trans rebuilt if I had to. It seems to be a fun little car!
@@proxixbswift8418 I’m now at 218,000 miles! Runs better than the day I bought it! Engine does not burn any oil! I’ve had to repair the front wheel bearings, passenger strut, rack and pinion! I found a rack and pinion in the junkyard for $50! I had the Freon refilled in the air condition! Cold air! It gets 20 mpg, and is the most reliable car I have ever had! I flushed the transmission after I bought it, and I am taking care of oil changes every 3,000 miles! The stereo quit working, so I found a Kenwood on clearance for $115 as a double din! I still love the car, and I found out from Nissan that the transmission was replaced under warranty at 109,000 miles! I feel bad for the previous owners for junking it instead of giving it a little love! But my gain! Their loss!
I have replaced the transmission on every single Nissan Altima I've ever owned I have about 20 Altima transmission in my garage right now I had a lot more but I have recently started taking some to the scrap yard replacing the transmission on the Altima is really easy to do should be able to do it in an hour or so for me I don't spend all the much on a transmission I buy one from the junkyard but there's a catch you only get a transmission from a wrecked Altima because most likely it was running before the accident if it was hit in the rear grate you do not have to reprogram the ECU/PCM/computer on the Altima I believe you have to on the ford focus
I had my 2012 nissan transmission replaced by a local mechanic shop. The problem is sometimes, it'll just stop shifting and then die. Wait like 10 minutes of so and it starts right back up. Do you have any ideas what could be the problem? Even the mechanic don't know what's wrong with it
I have a 2011 Nissan Altima 2.5 S and never have any problems, It's very reliable. It runs quiet, no creaks, the CVT transmission is very good. I still get 23 miles in the city and 29 on the highway.

@@blessingoguche8384 My 2010 Altima just hit 246,000 miles. I change change the fluid every few years and no problems so far. My advice is don't drive it like a lunatic. No rapid acceleration from a stop, have good tires and make sure they're properly inflated at all times. I have a friend who's a mechanic and he says the 2 front tires should be the same exact tires that mismatched tires put a strain on the transmission.

I have a 2010 Altima Coupe 2.5 S w/31K that I bought new. Over the last year , it’s started having all sorts of random problems. Right now, I am unable to drive it because of loud grinding, scraping sound when I make a turn. I post a video of this sound on my channel. It kinda sounds like I’ve gone thru the brake pad & into the rotors. But I had the brakes checked earlier this year and 70% of the pad was left. Unrelated issues - on my 3rd battery since purchased, car smells like acetone when driving during the summer, dash is extremely sticky because it has a melting dash. This car is very rarely parked in the sun as I work from home & even grocery shop at night, it won’t accelerate after making a hard fast stop, the max AC button no longer works, knobs on the radio no longer work (controls on the steering wheel work just fine), driver side window stops working during cold weather, and the center brake light in the back window & spoiler brake light stopped working - it won’t pass inspection due to this. Again, this car only has 31K miles on it. I would expect dry rot or rusting of parts after 12 years. All of these other problems???
Coming from a 2012 Altima 2.5s coupe owner, I’m currently In The process of getting my CVT replaced, haven’t even driven the car 3k miles and the CVT blew up on me 😂💀
yep CVT is not meant for a v6. for a 4 cylinder maybe. or just get a Toyota with a ASIN CVT with launch gear ( a geared 1st gear, which then switches to the CVT for 2nd gear and upwards)
Anyone with an Altima notice your traction control sometimes comes on when idling ? Sometimes when I’m idling in park or drive, traction control pops on and doesn’t go off unless I shut the car off. When it’s on, the engine won’t let me accelerate over 35 mph otherwise the car will start pumping on the breaks. Anyone else had this issue ?
@@mrrmsfucker146 Wow. I would say that's overpriced but these Japanese engines would last forever if treated right. Also good to know that my car retains its value even with that much wear
I would not push anymore power than you need with the CVT. They are not built to be performance oriented, so hard pulls and anything pushing the trans to the limit will allow it to fail prematurely.

Change the transmission oil every 25k to 30k. Make sure you use the correct oil and you should be fine. Just keep up the maintenence. Also, make sure you let the transmission warm up before driving. Don't drive it cold. I have a 09 Altima.

damn I just bought a 2010 altima, should I flip asap
I’m thinking bout getting a 2008 v6 one
Change the transmission oil every 25k to 30k. Make sure you use the correct oil and you should be fine. Just keep up the maintenence. Also, make sure you let the transmission warm up before driving. Don't drive it cold. I have a 09 Altima.

Get used to diversity and stop expecting perfection, my friend.
If you don’t like my videos, don’t watch them!
@@AutoMotivate dont pay attention to him. I enjoyed the video, currently about to get a used nissan altima and I needed to do my research on the car before making a final decision.
@@AutoMotivate You did really great. Ignore the ignorant...
@@wlonsdale1 I’ve realized that most of these people who hate on comments are sad in some way. Either they home life is getting to them or their job.
I’ve had many reply with an apology and that they were upset about whatever situation at home.
You are right; though. They should be ignored because replying to hateful comments takes time away from what my main purpose is.
Thank you, both of you!
Rule 1 with these …
Buy the manual transmission version
People listen up and listen good if you got money to buy a car don't buy no Nissan vehicle period there CVT transmission is horrible especially on a Nissan Altima it is the truth.
The v6s tear up those CVTs.
