You must be an idiot if you think this video is good. Anytime you wanna do work on your own vehicle and you aren't familiar with mechanical procedures at least do your homework and don't just do exactly what the first video you saw on KZread tells you to do. I mean come on, you don't need to be a mechanic to realize how stupid this guy is and how many things he did wrong.

i have the 00' maxima se auto, received it at 140k kms, same issue. new MAF sensor off ebay for 23$ and 6 new sparkplugs an hour later it was a totally different car, what a huge difference. will do what you showed next

Great video. Thanks for taking the time and effort needed to record yourself while doing the repair. A few steps were unnecessary (like in taking off the MAF), but you showed me the spray I needed and how to clean my 2003 nissan maxima. You are a blessing. Sounds like the clutch to me though.

Most us here are not experts, that's why most of us are here. A few things: Zoom that camera out so we can see the whole engine bay to see what you're working on and as far as the butterfly goes you did the right thing by disconnecting the battery. If you disconnect the battery you can move the butterfly with no issue but if you do it while the car has power you now have to do the relearning procedure. I did my 08 max without any issues. Gonna do it today.

hi you need to set 5.0 DC multimeter throttle position sensor that's all fix?

This entire process is correct but in my experience I had to do more I took out the entire throttle body and cleaned it front and back and noticed there was excessive liquid beyond with shop towels I took as much out put it all together and it worked for me :)

GOOD REVIEW & GREAT CAR.

thank you for the response

Did you ever figure out what the problem really was? Awesome video. Thanks a lot.

So, so many mistakes!!!! First, clean your engine department, before you do anything, second: clean your battery connection, put some grease on them, third: you could get your fingers cut off, if your battery was connected, when your stick them inside a throttle body, and did you do throttle body re-learning process??? I did not see that......, and by the way, you can clean MAF sensor, just by taking those 2 screws out and lift it out!!!!!

Change your ignition coils and spark plugs

Did you know you can clean the MAF sensor and throttle body with just plain rubbing alcohol? You will have to take a q-tip with alcohol on it(just a couple of drops), and real gently clean the wire inside the MAF sensor. AS for the throttle body, you can use a rag with rubbing alcohol or a tooth brush and wipe clean. Awesome video. Thanks a lot.

The person who posted this, must update the video. The main mistake on this video is moving the butterfly of the throttle body. VQ35DE engine of 2002 maxima have electronic throttle body, ecu must be reset thru dealership by using Consult II or do it yourself by performing throttle relearn procedure. If you want to put your maxima into limp mode follow this misinformation.

Yes, 5th Gen maxima with VQ35DE engine have electronic throttle body, if you move the butterfly it will trigger an error code. To erase the code, you need to reset the ecu by performing the throttle relearn procedure or using the Consult II of Nissan Dealership. Worst ended up replacing the throttle body assembly. For VQ30DE, the throttle body is mechanical, so you can move it.

"Its very sensitive", so im gonna put it face down on a rocky gravel driveway and start spraying - hopefully i dont blow in any sand or debri from the ground... Ever hear of cardboard... ??? Wow... I luv wannabes on you tube... Sorry just gotta be honest...

It’s the vehicle speed sensor that sits at the top of the transmission. I had the same problem that I needlessly spent thousands of dollars to find out about.

Kid reminded me of a graphiti artist when he started spraying that thing. You sure your suppose to spray it like that bro?

oh wow, you never ever touch the butterfly on them throttle body. everrrrrrrr. I don't know how in the heck it did not screw up after. I am amazed that you just didn't have to reset or what they call relearn the throttle position. I was screaming at my PC NOOOOOOOOO god Nooooooo when I seen you about to do that. You have somehow lucked out cause I never seen someone do that without issues after.

link375 that was my first guess the clutch or the hydraulic fluid in the hydraulic clutch assuming it had a hydraulic clutch. Never heard of a transmission going into Gimp mode especially a manual tranny. Limp mode is a condition in the ECM that takes over for the engine management so that the car doesn’t just die as you’re driving down the road and operates the vehicle in pre-specified parameters so that the engine will keep running (but it will burn gas, build up deposits, and fall emissions until the vehicle has been repaired properly. I would’ve kept the jeep and with in his many miles on that nissan there just garbage at that Mileage

I have the same problem. I spent a bunch of money. Let me know.

That little wire on the MAF is suppose to get hot by the way.

I cleaned the sensor on my 2000 Maxima about three years ago, just after I bought it. This is a low mileage car that had about 50K miles at that time. It now has about 65K miles, and I'm having to clean the sensor again. Is this normal, that is, once they go bad, cleaning is only a short term fix? Or is something else causing this, maybe poor quality air filters? I'm thinking about replacing the sensor at this point, but it's about $110, don't want to do this if it's not the real problem. Anyone else have any experience with this?

dude. if a manual tranny car accelerates but won't move forward or backward the first thing which should come to anybody's mind would be a dead clutch. How come that didn't occur to you? also if your car has an electronic throttle moving the throttle plate manually by hand is a big no no for the throttle motor.

For this engine type, Do NOT touch the butterfly with your finger. I made that mistake and I had to replace the whole throttle body assembly plus went through a lot of headaches to get the re-learn process done. If I was going to do it again, I would ONLY spray the inside with the throttle body cleaner and let it dry.
