Happy New Year's to you as well Gary. All the best for 2022
Keep up the good work
Thanks for your continued support, Justin.
Happy new year Gary, this was a good one. Thanks for the video.
Thanks for the support, Dawie
Happy New Year Gary. Thx for the video.
All the best ahead Nico.
Those almeras were the last good cars Nissan built before they became more technical than a space shuttle....
The 1.6 is loved even jn American, the 2.0 sr has much more issues. 1.6 can handle Death Valley temperatures (115 Fahrenheit)

Can you please make a video on how to diagnose issues with drum brakes and handbreak cables. I once adjusted our Toyota Conquest drum breaks but it only lasted for a few weeks. The pads seemed fine but I suspect it could be something with the cable.
I would really appreciate your input on drum brakes (tips and tricks). Dankie
I will do so, I have to do my own Toyota Yaris Rear brakes I will film it in detail.
Gary
Much appreciated Mr.Gary!😎👍
Tks I got a coil dryve problem for same car.auto guy says signal from.comp box not getting to no.4 plug hence not firing. Please hell. Anand in SA.
Thank you Gary, I have the 2003 1.6 Lux. Just replaced radiator and thermostat, bled it well and all good. 1 month later noticed a slight humming noise and noticed bottom radiator pipe ice cold and top hose very hot, gauge shows normal temp. Im thinking its the water pump ??? which looks like a big job.
Hi, Michael, it seems more like the thermostat not working correctly
Hie sir .What might be the problem on this same model (1.6 2002 when it loses its power
Hi friend, the engine bay looks similar to mine. Could you make a video on cleaning or changing the following parts:
1. EGR valve
2. PCV valve
Thank you for your time
If it is not on my channel then it will only be done when I get that particular vehicle for that particular procedure.

Hi Gary .
Can you please post a video of you servicing this nissan please .

I had a similar issue with my i20 and replaced one coil and the crankshaft position sensor. But now I have minimal power in 2nd gear. Any ideas?
It sounds like you may have fitted a sub standard crank sensor as your power loss occurred after this was replaced.
Very good video , I have a nissan almera n16 1.8L 2004 automatic, some times stall in idle while I am at red light (traffic light) or stopping sign , I been cleaned the Maff and throttle body , Changed air filter, no engine management light , no code , do you know where's does to look at ? Thanks
Hi there same problem with me did you find a solution as yet? Please share
Crank angle sensor is prone to stuff up on these especially noticeable stall on idle or at low speed. There was a recall for this problem in about 2002 from my memory.
Had the same issue. The fuel injectors (FBJB100) are made by UNISIA JECS (owned by Hitachi - the same company manufacturing the coils). You have to remove the fuel injectors and clean them with laquer thinners (hook a small 9v battery to it and a small hose and purge the thinners in reverse through it). Then let it "click" a few times to clean the solenoid inside. After that it should be good again (perform an idle air volume re-learn). These are lean-burn engines (the only lean-burn engine Nissan has ever made). They work different from stoichiometry engines and are more sensitive to these type of things.
coils, fuel pump pressure low, blocked exhaust, binding brakes, the list goes on.

Good evening kind sir, I have a 2002 Nissan Almera 16 v twin cam, and I recently found out the previous owner had a problem with the car dying at the robot and didn't want to restart so they took it to someone and they said it was a problem with the fuel pump, it eventually started again however now I'm told theres a delay when accelerating and I also smell fuel, my uncle checked it and said the Throttle sensor needs to be replaced, a 3pin single.
Pleaser advise on this. Thank you and a gt8 video in deed.
The Nissan Almera is a timing chain engine when the timing chain stretches the cam and crank sensors go out of sync and disturbs the timing of the engine, the problem you describe sounds like this.
Had the same issue. The fuel injectors (FBJB100) are made by UNISIA JECS (owned by Hitachi - the same company manufacturing the coils). You have to remove the fuel injectors and clean them with laquer thinners (hook a small 9v battery to it and a small hose and purge the thinners in reverse through it).

@@vehiclemaintenanceandrepai3790 I've not seen the timing chain issue on SA models, though it depends on how regular the car was maintenanced (oil changes). Normally this only occurs on the overseas N16 model which also features Variable Valve Timing (omitted from the SA model). I've opened the front timing cover on mine (180000kms) and it was not stretched even 1mm (but I can't say it would not happen ever - I just have not seen it on SA models as of yet). It has an adjuster to compensate for stretch over time, but once it goes over 12mm the ignition timing (timing of the coil trigger) goes out.
I have done a few so it is quite possible.
Hi there, where does the computer box sits of this car? I've got a 2002 model, two plugs does not spark, it's not the coils checked it, not the plugs no power coming to 3 and 4
No idea, it depends on the model you have.
If you open the hood and stand in front of it - it sits on the right hand side (assuming you face the vehicle from the front, so it's on the passenger side). You will see a black cover with a hose (not connected to anything) and a lot of wires. If you remove that cover - you can pull out the ECU.
Hello my nisan almera 2003model 1600 cut sometimes out then smells petrol after a long time he start again what can the problem be
It sounds like it is over fuelling.
Hi i have a high rev to mid rev position on wifes almera. Have you come across that situation yet? Any solutions? 🙏
Try cleaning the throttle body with some carb cleaner this usually helps
Yuh Could also check the air flow sensor
Agreed, Keston
Hi can you please show me the fuel filter location of this car Nissan Almera N16 2002? I know the fuel pump is under the back seat , however, I cannot locate the fuel filter. I have to change both the Fuel pump and filter. Counting on your co-operation, Thank you.
There is no external fuel filter for this car, when you change the fuel pump a filter will be attached to it.

Hello my friend, I'm from Africa Mozambique and my car doesn't pass 2500 rpm its nissan wingroad wfy11 motor qg15de same as your motor twin cam 16 valves, can u help me ?
It could be stretched timing chains.
If there is a rattling sound in the engine on start-up, then the timing chains have to be replaced.
When the chain stretches the cam and crank sensors receive an incorrect timing signal, therefore, causing the timing of the engine to go out and causing power problems as a consequence.
This is when the car enters "limp mode 1". Caused by a faulty MAF. The ECU reduces the rev limiter to 2500 RPM automatically as these cars are not drive-by-wire (they still have a mechanical throttle).
Can you kindly help. My nissan almera is not starting and no spark
It sounds like the crank or cam sensors that are faulty, Chidzikwe
Does anybody know if the QG16DE is an interference engine?
Yes it is

Bought a new battery not long yimr ago for my 1.6, but now recently when i start it, it will show show that the battery is dying when i stary it up
You must check the alternator for charging voltage, it could need repairing as a faulty alternator will not charge the battery properly and kill the battery pre-maturely, also make sure the belt that drives the alternator is fine and adjusted correctly.
Sometime it does be the stem that is bad and not the coil
If the stem is replaceable, possibly.
Bro I need help from Bangladesh, my car is Nissan Sunny X Saloon 2002 model, the car starts after some places, then it stops suddenly, it starts again, after giving a lot of help, it cranks and does not start, after taking a rest for a while, it starts again. Turns on and off again, please tell me for which purse this happens.
According to your description of the issue, there could be many causes, namely a failing fuel pump, fuel pump relay, computer box failure, and stretched timing chains, when the chains stretch the timing of the engine goes out as the signal to the cam and crank sensors are severely affected, I had this type of problem many times, caused by the stretch timing chain.
A simple way to check is if there is a rattling noise in the engine on start up then it could very well be the main cause of your problem.
Crank angle sensor was the subject of a recall in about 2002 crank angle sensor and cam position sensor are both same so when changing one best to the other as well. Fit OEM as the chinese after market ones are not reliable.
Thank you want if we replaced all and still misfire.
It could either be faulty new coils, faulty injectors, or a compression problem such as burnt valves or broken piston rings, also when the intake manifold leaks it could also cause a misfire.
Hy Gary my Nissan almera does not spark I don't know what's the problem
Coils
I'm trying to locate where the cold start switch/sensor is located
it is incorporated in the throttle body unit.
Hello. I have the exact model Almera it was also stolen but when found, it returned with a misfire. When checking (as you demonstrated) I found that the misfiring is at coils 2 & 4. Now, I was advised to buy only 1 coil (out of 4) to see whether the misfiring would stop but the car still misfires. Would you advise that I buy the whole set (coil) or it might be something else that is causing the misfire? Also, I also noticed that the bleeder valve just behind coil 1 has been cut into 2 parts and with the upper part of it blocked with an old spark plug. However, when the spark plug blocking the bleeder valve is removed, the car idles a lot smoother even though it still misfires. Would you have any advice in this regard? Thanking you in advance for your response...
Best to do a compression test Sim.
Have the same engine 2003 wingroad what could cause black smoke when pulling of smelling gas from the exhaust also.
Why res not working properly
??????
Coll
It could be
Code

The ECU in this model is quite primitive and is a barebone version of the N16 model running in Australia and China. The ECU in this is very very basic - it would only detect a failed coil in some cases, but not always. If you un-plug the injectors it will not even throw a DTC code at all. Also, in SA these cars came out with 14" wheels, but the ECU was never updated by Nissan to correct for the tire speed (which should be 15"). So the speedometer is also registering a speed of about 11km/h higher than the actual speed. Basically what I'm getting to is this model of car was a re-badged Infiniti G20 from 1999 (with modified body panels) and because Nissan took a lot of shortcuts, I'm not surprised that the ECU shows an error code not matching with what's actually wrong.
Do not believe everything you read, all my advice is based on personal experience as a 35+ year veteran mechanic, as I learn new things every day, my knowledge is always expanded and this gives one the ability to see Bsh#t for what it is, careful out there. Knowledge is power but misinformation leads to misdirection.
btw i fixed my car with new camshaft sensor
Great
