I have a 2004 Nissan maxima and as I was driving it, the car shut down.No power brakes, steering etc.It would crank but not start

T. I did just have the oil changed and they reset the car computer to show the oil was changed. the dash board flashed all lights and the car just stopped-almost like I was out of gas? I have gas, battery is new, and would not jump start, gas was checked and it is clean, no water in take, the fuel pressure is good and the filter nad pump are working?? Ideas?

Check the alternator. may not be charging. car will run until battery dies and than it will die, since things like computer and other components are not getting power. also cam sensors may cause this, but usually the service engine soon light will light up, if sensor fails.

SOURCE: Starting problem

Try the idle air control valve it is located near the throttle body it has a four wire plug and has two small hoses attached to it this is a small stepper motor that controls the amount of air on start up this part will cost about $200 from a popular auto parts store.

SOURCE: 2004 1.8l nissan sentra what now? not battery or fuel pump/filter

Check your catalytic converter. If you are over 80k miles, these devices will wear in stages. The first stage of wear is slower gear change at cruising speeds when approaching any type of incline. Second stage is the engine light will reveal a faulty oxygen sensor. Because the converter is basically a "filter" built into the exhaust system, it wears by slowly clogging, which leads to no starts, no power, and sometimes a blown head gasket. If your mechanic removed the oxygen sensor before the converter, theres a strong chance it would start right up.

Hi can any1 help me with my nissan sentra problem?my car just shut off while driving and lost power be for it shut completely off tried to crank it back up but it didn't start sprayed some starter

Crank shaft sensors often fail without triggering a code. But in its early stages, a check engine light may be on. Symtoms of a bad crank sensor are: poor acceleration ( lack of power ) rough idle, ETC. sometimes you may be able to start it normally, and other times it takes 3 or more times. If the check engine light is on take it to a auto parts store and thy can read the code for free. To tell if that's the problem. God-Bless!

Twice now my 2004 Nissan Maxima has completely died as I was coming to a stop at an intersection. Both times it started back up again after about 10 minutes and then runs normal. I just don't want to...

I can guarantee your car keeps cutting off because there is a problem with your crank sensor. I have a '04 maxima SE and the day I paid my car off it did the exact same thing, it cut off then cranked back up a short while later and when I took it to the dealer there was a problem with the crank sensor. You might wanna check that and get it replaced soon...it's cheaper if u dont do it at the dealer tho

How often should i tuneup my 2004 nissan maxima

Same as on all your vehicles

The same as you have done all your life

Tune-ups went by the wayside 25 years ago

Spark plugs etc--every 3 years or 70,000 miles
Filter -every 3 years or 30,000 miles
Brake fluid every 2 years
Trans& Power Steering every 30,000 miles

Set up your own schedule from past experience

I assume you keep no log book, if have to ask
