    Quick way to tell the difference between the 1.6l and the 1.8l is that the PCV valve is on the right side of the motor. 1.8L is on the left side.

    Thank you so much for this tutorial.
    I own a 2012 Nissan Versa Hatchback 1.8l and have been noticing slight shaking at times when stopped at a red light, as well a slight rpm drops that would then go right back to normal.
    I’ve had suspicions that my spark plugs are due but have intimidated in doing the job myself. I’m mechanically inclined enough to do my own oil changes, but in areas more sensitive I usually take it in. The only problem with taking my car in for a spark plug job is the ridiculous cost I get quoted.
    After watching your tutorial I’ve gained enough confidence to do the job myself. What I like about your video that most others fail to do is provide socket sizes and torque settings as they go.
    Also, your video doesn’t quickly jump from one scene to another, instead you take your time and do each step all the way through so the viewer will know what to expect.
    Thank you so much for this. I hope this will not be your only tutorial upload and wish your channel all the best.

    Great video! I have a 2009 Versa 1.8 with 215000 miles with original spark plugs... Still running great. Will change them out before giving car to my son. The car still has many original parts including original transmission fluid... Never changed! Goes to show how well built this car is. Sure over the years, little things like door knobs and trim become loose... So what? Tighten them! I plan to put another 100k miles on this car. No doubt God willing!

    Have had one of these for 7 years . Car is easy to drive and has good rear passenger room which is larger than others in the class. Bought with 11,000 Km on the clock. Now done 106,000 Km So far replaced front bake pads few times new disks at 80 K, rear brakes recently after 80% wear on old ones. Regularly oil (synthetic oil only) and quality filter changes every 8,000 K. Regular drain and fill of Auto Trans fluid ( maxlife multi vehicle ) every 24,000. I often do 400km country trips but use it regularly for short city trips.
    Car runs and shifts well with city fuel cons. 7.8 per 100 km, and 6.5 KM country. One new battery. Replaced original tires with Yokohamas after 55,000 Km which make the car much better in directional steering and grip in wet. They too are now on need of replacement soon. Consider replacement Yokohamas or Kumho at around A$150 each.
    Installed sound deadening to doors and rear wheel well (It's a hatch back) with some spary on underbody DIY sound deadening and these reduced noise from road considerably making the car much quieter on country roads at 110KMH.

      Hi just bought a 2005 tiida, can you help me with a simple thing, on the dashboard, the fuel gage has several divisions from empty to full. How many liters of fuel are between a division for example between empty and a quarter, thank you

    • @Rob-fx2dw

      @@TakuCoding On mine it seems to vary because the tank is not the same shape at the top as the bottom and sfter I fill tthe first 50 KM it goes down rather more qickly than the second m and third 50 Km. It is only a guide and if you are worried about fuel use on long trips just see what the displayed fuel usage is and how much longer you have to drive. e.g. if it is 7 litres per hundred and you have a full tank you will know it is half full because you have used 26 litres at 14K per litre and gotten 364 Km .

    I have a 2010 Nissan 1.8 L hatchback.
    It begin shaking when I was in park and lagging when I was trying to accelerate. The shaking isn’t occurring when I am going at a higher rate of speed but when I let off the gas it shakes some and then is hard to get back up to speed again. It also seem like it was burning fuel faster and I noticed that my rear exhaust pipe was making a lot of noise. This happened quickly. I ran a diagnostic at AutoZone and it read code P0303. It also showed PO420. So my cylinder 3 is misfiring. They recommended changing the coil only. Should I change the spark plugs and what is the firing order? I was going to try and do this myself because they said it would be easy. I want to make sure I change the right coil. How hard is this going to be on the model I have? If I have to take a lot of stuff off I’m thinking maybe I should go ahead and change all of the spark plugs and the one coil. Also I am going to have my catalytic converter checked. I just put a new exhaust system on this summer. Anyway I have been trying to find information or some kind of diagram or video for my car and want to make sure I do this right.

    Is there a video anywhere on UA-cam showing how to adjust the intake valves? I heard that after a certain amount of miles, if the car makes a ticking noise, valve clearance can be adjusted since it has variable valve timing. Thanks in advance.

    My Tiida isn't shaking but at low rev it makes a pinging type noise, would this resolve that issue?

    • @asama1984
      @asama1984  4 роки тому

      Pinging indicated pre-detonation. Your knock sensor will try to prevent this by making the spark plugs fire earlier. If the spark plug is worn out there's more resistance which can delay spark. So pinging can be caused by old spark plugs.
      When did you change your spark plugs last? And do you have a check engine light?

      @@soulcatcher6770 alright. I don't believe there's such a thing as a stupid comment. You clearly don't understand the basics of fuel injection so let me educate you my friend. RPM can either be higher or lower depending on fuel stoichiometry. It's dependant on the location of the leak and volume of excess air, and the vehicle's general ECU mapping. Fuel injection volume is mainly controlled by mass air flow sensors and O2 sensors which is adjusted according to measured air volume. So you could get high rpm if there's fuel compensation to prevent the engine running lean. Or you can get low rpm if there's no or limited compensation and the engine runs lean. Or the third scenario is your rpm will jump up and down (surging) if there's conflicting info with constant adjustments from 2 or more sensors. Hope that clarifies things for you.
