In the Nissan service manual it is called the "Headlamp Bulb Plastic Cap". This part covers the bulb. Then you twist the bulb socket to remove the bulb.

Ok, if you have not slammed the door too hard and you are having a latch problem you need to gather a few things. This works better with two people if you have help. Take a screwdriver and place it in the middle of the latch on the door (where you would expect the bar the latch attaches to on the car would be if the door was shut). Have you other person pull the door handle as if they were opening the door, this will release the door latch itself. As they are pulling the handle, pull the screwdriver towards the inside of the door releasing the latch. I know I have a hard time explaining this method without being able to show you, but this is what you need to do.

check the brake disk

Open the trunk, on the inner part of the actual trunk door, locate the side of where you want to replace the brake light bulb, and probably have to unscrew the mount with a screwdriver and then the bulb will be easily removed.

I believe you should pop the trunk and look where the light would be on the outside and pull the carpeting off.
well first unscrew the screws holding the carpet down then look in there.
pull out the headlight assembly and take out bulb and put new one in

Go to this link (http://www.dmitriylerman.net/Maxima/MaximaMain.html). It's the best information I have found. Other solutions I've found say the bumper has to be removed. Someone mentioned that you don't have to remove the tire, necessarily, but it's easier that way.

This should be stated in you owner's manual. Most cars are fine on 87 octane. Some high performance engines will give more power with higher octane fuel.

I don't understand you problem, I have a 2007 maxima with CVT transmission, THERE ARE NO GEARS ! WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? CVT = constant velocity transmission. It's like driving a golf cart.

HI, The Ventrue SL is a great vehicle. the transmission issues concern user or driver faults. this transmission is very sensitive and, it requires schedule maintenance on a regular basis. if you miss or neglect to maintain the trans, you will have issues. Just keep up the maintenance schedule and, the trans will be fine. Overall, its a great vehicle.

not really,if you have a basic set of hand tools and some mechanical ability you should be able to do this yourself (your local auto parts store has rental tools for this job).there should be a belt routing diagram under the hood,on the radiator support or on the fender well area or possibly on the hood.if you do not find a diagram draw one on a piece of paper,without a diagram it is a real problem trying to properly route the belt.most have an idler/tensioner pulley that keeps the belt tight you will need to loosen this up,it is either held in place with a through bolt and then an adjusting bolt to tighten/loosen the belt,some are spring loaded and you need a wrench or a ratchet to take the tension off of it.once you have done this remove the old belt and install the new one in the reverse order.don't forget the routing diagram! good luck,I hope this helps get you through your belt change.

Are the 2 connectors (male) fitted tightly on the rear window? Sometimes you have to have them resoldered. I used special electric glue. Canadian Titr. You can also use alum. duct tape. Good luck.

this is defiantly an electrical problem. I sense that most of it has to do with bad wiring in your steering column. If you have had a aftermarket installation done that deals with the stereo system, this will also cause these problems if it was not installed correctly. the worst scenario would be that this car is simply a lemon. hopefully not. its quite young to have these issues.

Do you know what the code was? That would be helpful. Most likley going to have to take it to a transmission shop. Its not really some thing that can be explained over the internet.

That Clicking Sound is Coming from the Starter. First check the Starter Relay. It should be in a Fuse Relay Box under the Hood. If this is good, The Problem will be the Starter and will need to be Replaced. Also Check the Tension on the Belt. If the Belt is even a little loose it will not allow the Alternator to Charge the Battery and will cause a Not Start. Let me know what you find out. Please Rate my Response, I need all the Help I can get! Thanks!

It is no a job for a do it yourselfer. I recommend taking it to a qualified repair shop. The heater core is mounted under the dash in the evaperator/heater case and it is a very involved job to disassemble and reassemble the correct way. Sorry.

Remove the trim around the shifter, then remove the center console. You will then have access to the screws holding the trim around the radio in. Once you are to that point, take the radio screws out and pull out the radio.

Is the coolant level down? This can cause a no heat problem. Anything changed or unusual about engine temp, (high, low), or how long it takes to warm up? If coolant level is ok, let me know about engine temp - warm up time.
