My 2003 Nissan Sentra Spec V will miss fire for about 100'-500' once every couple of weeks. The dealership can not tell me why or fix it. Any idea's

This problem started 9 months ago. Brought it to the dealership, they couldn't fix it. No check engine light was on. It runs great other then when it has miss fired. My neighbor is a part-time mechanic and it did miss in my drive way. He took it for a ride, the engine light finally came on and it said miss fire cylinder 3. We changed the plugs moved the coils over 1 place. Figuring if it was the coils it would miss fire in another cylinder. The car ran fine for a month then miss fire again. Code said cylinder 3. We pulled the fuel injectors cleaned them and put them back. The car was fine for 2 months and missed fired again for about 100'. No check engine light. Any idea what it could be

I think that your crank angle sensor failed. Is the check engine light on?? if so, scan it and get code. If the code is P0335, than you need new crank angle sensor. Nissan has been having some problems with those even on other Nissan products. (Altima, Pathfinder and so on) Good luck.

SOURCE: p1320 trouble code plus

The P1320 code is essentially a coil primary voltage problem. This is traceable using a labscope or accurate DVOM and perhaps you can isolate one or two coils that still work but are close to failure...but there is a nissan service message recommending replacement of ALL coils with updated/improved models to prevent this type of failure. TCS/SLIP is traction control. Most likely you have a speed sensor issue. Be aware, some vehicles can falsely illuminate TCS because of low tire pressure in a single wheel.

SOURCE: My 1986 Nissan 300zx non-turbo was running fine,

It sounds like the number 2 injector is hung open.

It will dump fuel and cause all sorts off issues with the ECU.

You should ohm that injector and compare it with the others to see if it is wildly different. If so, change it out and retest.

I drive a 2003 Nissan Sentra SE-R Spec V.
My car suddenly stalled 1 day and the engine wouldn\'t turn over. Brought it to my mechanic and had the Camshaft position sensor replaced by my mechanic. The car ran fine for about 2 weeks and then the light was back on with the initial symptoms.

Took the car into the dealership and they diagnosed it again as P0335. Said that the mechanic hadn\'t installed the sensor correctly. Charged me a bunch of money to replace the thing and not too long ago the check engine light is on. The Revs bounce around everywhere. Checked the code again and it\'s P0335 yet again! Am in talks with the dealership to get to the bottom of this...

Is there an access door too the fuel pump on a Nissan 2003 Sentra

You have to remove the rear seat cushion and there is an inspection hole cover over the sending unit and fuel pump. The 2 come out as one unit. Remove the fuel line coupling and then the 6 screws holding the inspection cover on. BE CAREFUL not to bend the level sending arm. If you remove the fuel filter, make sure you mark which way it came of so it cam be put back in the same way.
