your cv joint is bad. Instead of fixing the cv joint it is actually easier and cheaper to have or replace the entire axle your self. Because it comes with a cv joint and you get a new axle also.

SOURCE: stick shift # Automatic RPM

The gear ratios on a manual transmission are fixed, that's why it's a manual. If you get 3000 rpm at 75 mph, that means you will see 3200 rpm at 80 mph, 3400 rpm at 85 mph, etc. The two quantities are directly proportional, a fixed ratio for each gear. You would get a lower rpm with a 6-speed manual but still it's a fixed ratio.

On a car with automatic transmission, it can be more complicated. Most transmissions nowadays have various "overdrive" modes that keep the rpm low if you're going steady at a high speed. Some even have continuous gear ratios, so it's hard to say "what gear" you are really in. In general, the rpm will be lower on the highway with an automatic and that's normal.

SOURCE: 1998 Nissan Altima GXE squealing noise

Could be the bearings in your alternator have gone dry and your alternator is about to quit out on you. I had a friend with an 01 altima and we could always hear him coming before we saw him because of this very problem. Changed the alternator out and noise went away. Thanks for using FixYa!

SOURCE: Nissan Altima 2002 2.5S. Driver side front

I doubt the motors going out if it's still responding with noise when you press the button I'm having the same issue and I did some investigation and found that the windows run on a pulley system with allot of moving parts including cable much like the one's on most bike's and some times this cable might fall into the wrong slot on the motor winding spool causing the cable to entangle and on some occasions break and cause a nasty mess of a tangle to contend with hope this helps and good luck .....

SOURCE: The RPM of Nissan Altima stays high when drive over 65 MPH.

No....the rpms differ from engine to engine and from manufacturer to manufacturer. RPM's are always higher at higher speeds.

What causes a 2012 nissan altima to have standing water in driver side?

If you have a sunroof check the drain located at the frt corner of the opening. Open the sunroof, pour some water into the rain channel near the drivers side frt corner, should drain out. If not, blow some air (everybody has an air compressor, right?) through the drain port.

2003 Altima 2.5 Deceleration Jerky above 40 mph and pulls left momentarily

Get the front end jacked up and safely supported and check out the control arm bushings for looseness, the CV joints and if noting found pull the left wheel and brake caliper off and make sure the calipers slides or pins are clean and properly lubed to allow the caliper to release properly.

I got clipped by another vehicle in the back, now my 2000 nissan altima sways from left to right uncontrolably after 30-40 mph, how do I FIX IT

you probably have a badly damaged or broken suspension component (strut, knuckle or trailing arm) and the location of the rear wheel/wheels has been affected. The car needs to be put on a lift and inspected to determine if it is safe to drive-please get it checked for your safety and the safety of others.

Stick shift # Automatic RPM

That is normal,If you do the same speed in 4th gear the rpm's will almost double.

The rpm's will repond faster in a manual than an automatic.

In a manual the engine supplies the power required directly to the gear that you have selected thus the engine rpm's will increase or decrease as needed.
