My 2007 - D 40 (118,000Ks)developed a noise similar to that of a loose fan belt which only appeared after travelling 5-6ks and seemed to be connected in some way to the throttle position.
It would come and go as I applied only light pressure to the throttle.
It would scream at me under acceleration from lights etc then shut off once on the go.
Silly me took it to Nissan who told me it was the alternator $1270.00 plus fitting so I took it to my man who agreed re the alternator and replaced it for $850 - what a bargain - until I drove it home and the noise came back.
Took it back to my man (who was very appologetic) and spent several hours working on it and when I picked it up he said all they did was tighten all nuts,bolts and hose clamps and the noise stopped - and so far (3 weeks) it has.
Any Ideas???
Also I tried to get onto the forum re the above but my puter said you had a bad bad virus and would not connect me until I tried again today.
Was it my puter or was there something going on??
Thanks.
