Hi,

Based on your description, could be anything:

• throttle control (including A/C compensator);
• auto choke;
• engine management;
• auto cruise (if your model has one)

A couple of clarifying questions:

1. What is your standard set idling RPM, 1000? with or without A/C?
2. Automatic or conventional/manual trnasmission?
3. When was the last major tune-up? What parts were replaced?
4. Does it sound like misfiring also?
5. Any other indicators, hard starting, long warmup, stalling, excessive gas consumption, smarting to the eyes exhaust fumes?
6. Does your battery light lits up?

Hope this be of initial help/idea. Pls post back how things turned up or should you need additional information.

Good luck and kind regards.

Thank you for using FixYa.

You need to determine where the oil is leaking from. Could be oil pan gasket or drain plug. Look for damage to the oil pan. The damage might be minor but bad enough that the pan won't seat tightly on the engine

have your car change oil regulary. timing belt must check if at normal state. or have replace it.
also tune -up your vehicle first, and try new spark plugs, distributor cap, ignition coil. also have your air filter replace maybe dirty.

If you mean the sensor that drives the temperature gage, looking at the front of the car, it is on the right side of the engine, in front of the cooler temperature sensor. It looks like a little stud that the wire sort of clips on.

you must go down through the window and find the rod that releases the door latch you can use a long screw driver or rod to release it

Check you suspension/steering components. Something is damaged or worn out. Any minor (or major) accidents recently? Big pot hole, slid off the road, went over a curb, etc? Something may be damaged from one of these incidents. Are you the only one to drive the Murano? I ask, because I have seen people swear that they never had an minor mishaps, only to discover Jr. took the car out off-roading, and bent the heck out of the lower control arm when he hit a rock. No damage evident until it was checked for alignment, which was way out of whack. Drive the car up on ramps and look very closely for any scrapes, dents, bends, etc. It is most likely a suspension component that needs to be replaced. Let me know what you find. Good luck!

Hi
I am disappointed. Your website is misleading because it does not provide what it promise; free advice. It will be nicer if you will just tell the people you provide advice for a fee up front. If your way of doing business is misleading, what am I to expect from your paid advice services? Please take me off your email list.

Hi, the TCM is located at the passenger side kick panel (LHD), when you remove the kick panel you will see the ECU (engine control module) directly above it is the TCM. I hope this can help.
