$300 for dealer installed locking lug nuts is nuts! Would have requested that removed. One dealer tried to charge $699 for a 3 year "Karr" (dealer pre-installed) security system they were able to remove by simply deactivating it online. Dealerships just want to squeeze every $ out of you.
Told me it came like that from Mazda and didn't remove it......
Stick shift is fun until you have to change out the clutch on a front wheel drive car. Have to pull out the engine to do it. Big $$$$.
@@robertallan4489 I've only done rear wheel drives and I don't plan on doing this one lol
So here's some audio / in-car entertainment info I've been able to gather about this car. While the higher trims have Android Auto / Apple Carplay built in, this trim level does not, and is not available as a stand-alone option. I've read somewhere that when you attempt to swap the higher trim unit into it, the reverse camera display will no longer work. As far as I can tell, no one's sure why. Not sure why anyone would be okay with that, but if you are, the good news is the units are physically interchangeable (they're both 7 inch screens, despite what the video says), and the AA/ACP will work. Unfortunately, I've also read that it would be discouragingly difficult to go with an aftermarket head unit. I believe that the problem is that there currently is no installation kit that fits or works well, and you have to change out the factory speakers due to their low impedance. I've researched this stuff because I'm seriously considering buying one of these cars, and I like the old-school vibe it has. But as such, I'm not a big fan of a giant tablet stuffed in the middle of the dash that doesn't do much more than a simple single-din radio would.
Thanks for all the intel!! Yeah, I think I'll just deal with the factory for now. It's not great but that's ok....for now. I don't wanna lose the reverse camera so thanks for the heads up!!
Should I set them 2 funerals?!
He weird
What is limp mode??
I heard it happens to diabetics.
Good thing your doors don't unlock..someone can try and enter when you stop.
Hey man I just got a 2024 manual. It seems like the ac compressor cycles on and off very frequently. More than I’ve noticed than other cars
@@nolanodonnell9943 mine does the same, does the speed of the blower change when it is on high when driving?
Any problems with the CVT overheating?
Not sure if I missed it watching this video, but did you spray paint the roof black or did you buy an aftermarket black replacement?
Did not spray anything, Only put a spoiler on it
Nice
Exact same issue with my plum quick.. nothing they could do.. BS
Now we are stuck with some paperweights
NHTSA Opens Investigation into Nissan Versa Engine Stalling - Lemon Alert "The Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) has received 20 complaints and multiple field reports describing reduced power (limp mode) following a vehicle stall in 2022-2024 Nissan Versa vehicles equipped with a manual/standard transmission. The complaints allege that if the vehicle stalls, resulting from releasing the clutch too fast (or for other reasons), the vehicle goes into the limp mode resulting in limited torque available to move, or accelerate the vehicle. This limp mode occurs without prior warning and can occur while driving on the highway, or in city traffic. Several of the complaints allege not being able to maintain vehicle speed above 30 MPH or accelerate to avoid a potential hazard." I bought a 2022 Nissan Versa with a manual, and because of how crude it was and especially because of how uncomfortable it was on the highway, I traded it in for a Corolla Hatchback, even though my Versa only had 12K miles on it. The Corolla is a much nicer and more capable car, especially on long road trips. By the way, I experienced the limp mode condition after stalling, and after that happened once, my engine developed a slight knocking noise. I'll never buy another Nissan again.
Wow, thanks for all the info! Will be passing this along
I bought the same car manual and I experienced the same thing. Huge loss of power and no acceleration. I only have 2k miles on it.
Ппц, я вам завидую, был бы в России такой пепелац, рабочая лошадка,топчик за свои деньги, но к сожалению у нас она будет как жирная иномарка в Европе. Очень жаль.
As for the limp mode thing It might be something with the ABS is what my friend said. It happened after doing the tire rotation on hers.
How do you "cycle" a key exactly? Please explain
I just turned it on and off 5 times, something I read to do if in limp mode.
I'm fine with everything except how high-revving it is on the highway. For comparison, my 2018 VW Jetta is running at around 2200 RPM at 75 MPH in fifth gear. Granted, that is with a more powerful turbocharged engine, although it is actually smaller in displacement (1.4L) than the Versa's engine (1.6L), and gets around the same mileage (I'm averaging around 37 MPG).
How is the cruising RPM at about 70 MPH? I was just looking at them
I'll have to check, it's pretty high though
I envy you man! I want a manual Versa but my wife doesn’t want one of our car to be a manual. She shot herself in the foot though because the 2022 Altima we bought will need a new cvt pretty soon. We got quoted $8000 for a new cvt.
Do the rear seats fold down more or less flat?
Dont fold at all actually
@@slingshotengageon the manual it’s not an option correct? I have an automatic S and it came with the 60/40 split
@@jayk5731 Correct!
cool vid ultra beer as well
Hey! Thank you! For the awesome review on the Nissan Versa. I had a 2015 Nissan Versa S, a 2017 Nissan Versa SV, and a 2019 Nissan Versa S plus and now I have a Honda but I’m considering a 2024 Nissan Versa S with the plus package but can you control the Headlights or do they stay on when it’s dark or when going under an overpass? Do they control themselves without the ability of being able to turn them off manually when driving?
@@shawnfahey7243 Mine has auto high beam but that's it, and it's iffy at best
Ok, I currently have the 2023 Red Honda hrv sport and mine aren’t iffy at all. They work when they’re supposed to.
@@shawnfahey7243 If the vehicle is coming directly at me, they seem to work well, but sometimes they stay on too long in my opinion which my be blinding to others
how can a manual go into limp mode?
Right! But it did, no power at all
Because Nissan Just slapped a Manual transmission and did not bother to reprogram a CVT based Engine computer module. I believe limp mode is supposed to be a safety feature to prevent excess engine power ruining the CVT under certain conditions, maybe the computer senses something wrong in the transmission thinking it is a CVT and it just shuts the power or prevent more power delivery to the transmission.
@@abraham3981 it's done it twice, once when i stalled and another just random
@@slingshotengage I heard the recently produced 2024 ones don't suffer the limp mode defect, maybe Nissan reprogramed the newly manufactured ones. I just got a new 2024 Manual versa last week, manufactured in May 2024 just the previous month before I bought it. I have not stalled the car yet but I will report what I experience when I do.
I just bought the 2024 manusl Versa and today with only 2k miles on it went into limp mode. Bought mine Aug 15th 2024
Why is this dude's knee on the steering wheel.
Third brake lights were mandated in 1986.
Auto UNLOCK ---- to enable/disable auto-unlock: (or) auto-lock 1. Close all doors. 2. turn ignition key to the ON position. 3. Press and hold the door unlock switch for 5 seconds or more 4. switch is completed when the hazard lamp blinks. 2 blinks = enabled 1 blink = disabled Note - to enable/disable the "auto lock" feature is the same procedure, but press the lock button.
Step 5. Clear limp mode😅
I think you shoulda gotten a Corolla or Impreza honestly.. way better vehicles in all aspects 👍👍👍👍
Nissan is not a good vehicle to have or maintain.. worst engineered cars mate ..
What you driving then ?😅
@@WorkingOnRocks I own a 2009 Subaru Impreza, non turbo.. Subarus are the easiest cars to work on, even to replace a whole engine 👍👍👍👍
@@moonlander03 got A/C ? In that 2009 lol
@@WorkingOnRocks still running like a champ baby, will out last what ever you got that’s for sure 😂😂😂😂😂
Clearly you know nothing about cars and are just a fanboy.
Does the rear seat fold down? Is the issue that its not split or that it does not fold at all?
Not split and does not fold
I have the same jet ski my season is about to start do u have two wires going to the negative terminal on your battery?
Yup! The second for the usb charger? Just a guess
Thnx man
They were made in Mexico so do not expect it to last as poor quality control issues there. S model does not have Android Auto, Apple CarPlay, HD Radio & SiriusXM Satellite Radio. There is no keyless entry but you can add a aftermarket alarm to open the doors remotely.
What do you expect at that price point?
Mine is an S but had the S+ package so I have Apple CarPlay. Yeah no keyless entry is taking some getting used to. I did have a remote start put in but still have to unlock the door. At least after I do the car will be nice and warm. A must have in the northeast when I don’t have a garage
It may be affordable but I wish I hadn't bought mine. This car is shorter than the 2015 Versa I had. Rear seats have no leg room. Trunk is smaller. Front passenger seat can not be changed in height. Glove compartment is smaller. You have to buy your own screws to attach the front license plate. At this time you can't get the cameraa (which cover a large part of the windshield), auto dim rear view mirror factory installed. The worst part is they built the car with crevices that can't be cleaned of debris all over the car ( too many recessed gaps between top and sides of car and front and rear windows. Not worth the cheap price.
I suppose it's worth remembering that it's originally built for the Japanese stature.
I have a stock motor, looking to upgrade my 36volt, can someone link me everything I need thanks
Did you wanna keep the 36 volt or switch to 48? Could get pricey
@@slingshotengageI can stay 36v; trying to get up to 21-23mph without being at full power, make my commute to local parks a little quicker. Stock I currently cruise around 15-18
Where did you get the little spoiler?
Ebay, little over $100
@@slingshotengage Name or style? I'm seeing a ton of spoiler/wing options on ebay. I do like yours though.
@@justinharrington77 Beyond Basik was the name but thats all im sure about
Would you recommend this vehicle for mainly highway driving 95% highway . Enough pickup??
Yeah, that's all i do with it. If it's loaded down or the A/C is on, it's a lil sluggish
I love Procontacts and I had them on a FIAT for years. Then my 2021 Corolla HB came with crappy Dunlops but I fixed that this year, all good now.
I drove fiats in 70's and 80's driving fiat 124, 131 Brava .I put on pirelli P77- best traction; it was rwd best traction in snow. I wish these vehicles were available today.
I was looking into replacing my 24+ year old Saturn SL2 with one of these with the manual trans. So is it true this base model does not come with remote locking/unlocking doors? My Saturn does. Also the not split rear seat is a big deal for me. I've hauled many a large object by folding down the seat backs Including my bicycle. The best mpg I've gotten with my Saturn is 41 highway. Are there any other negative surprises I should know about? My Saturn is pretty basic but your Versa seems even more basic.
Yup, no key fob! Im sure a car audio shop could install one. The non foldable seat is an issue. The limp mode activating is worrisome as well. This has only happened once though. Other that those things it has done exactly as i hoped. If ya didnt need the manual, you could move up a notch and get split seats and FOB
You can always buy aftermarket
Bought one today May26/'24 On Clearance Half off at Academy. $599.
That's a great deal!
a spoiler on a 122hp car?
Needed more rear grip!
My 2022 S automatic DOES have hill assist. Also, my collision sensor started flashing the other day when i splattered a juicy bug. 🪰😆
A frosty morning will also make the sensor flash till the sun comes up
That's funny when you say you finally have 10,000 miles on your 2024 Versa. I have a 2023 Kicks over a year old, and I'm just getting to 6,000 miles. NTSA has opened an investigation into the stalling and limp mode on the manual Versa.
Thank you for the intel! Yeah, im driving too much
I'm getting 33 in the city and 43 highway with my 2024 versa S manual . Driving style has a lot to do with what mpg you can expect I think .
Yeppers, my driving style needs improvement!
I bought the exact same center console. Either the back USB ports on the car or on the console don't seem to work very well. I have a USB stick with my music plugged into the front USB port. When i plugged my phone in to charge in the center console it glitched my USB stick. I had to re-upload my music. I don't even use the back USB ports anymore.
Tell me when transmission is broken, fake car
All cars are disposable many cars are going to the cheap scooter transmission now days
As far as the limp mode goes I don’t own one of those but I’ve read before that it goes into limp mode sometimes if you either stall it or don’t turn the key for long enough for it to start. Supposedly the NHTSA is investigating and Nissan is supposed to have a fix soon if they don’t already have one. Edit: if you go to the NHTSA website and search Nissan Versa and click 2023 Nissan Versa then scroll down click on investigations and you can see “reduced power after engine stall”
Just picked up this exact car on Saturday about 260 miles on it. I think these things with the manual given reasonable care in maintenance and driving gently will serve us well. I’ve got the Kumho Solus tires / seem to get ok reviews .
Totally agree, i use mine for commuting back and forth on the east coast. So far it's been great, except for the one time in limp mode. Hopefully won't need tires for awhile!
I just picked my 2024 Versa as well, 5 Speed with Kumho Solus TA31 tires as well.
Duh
