Timing marks are not the issue. If the timing marks were off, you would get a stutter.

Not in these Nissans.

I think the OP alluded to some stuttering in the first post. At any rate there is no harm in checking the timing. And for good measure let me quote from the link I referred to: "so just for future reference, these ECMs, if they don’t see what they think is correct timing between the crank and cam, it will completely shut down the injector pulse, and coil signal?...yep, it is trying to keep the valves and pistons from hitting so it will shut it down. They are very smart! That compression says it all really."

Good news. Now time to "apportion blame." What led to the timing mishap?

That timing problem has been there. Was just a coincidence it prevailed same time it came to the engineer's workshop. As for the op. Always give time for a professional engineer to carry out his job. This would helo both parties happy and also make your car happy as well. cheesy good to hear your nissan has been woken up from sleep grin

I am still trying to look into this. Though the opinion is that cause the car has been packed 4 long. That I was suppose to drain the engine oil which must have changed formation prior to driving the car around.

Timing chain has been there? Maybe. Maybe not. Coincidence? I doubt it. And not that I dont want to allow the engineer to work but I panicked when I realize the situation was clearly spiraling out of control. Remember he changed several sensors, ECMs and was mentioning flywheel. And as everyone knows Nissan esp Maxima is a tough nut to crack for most mechanic most ended up leaving the car worst than they met it( I have several experience). Anyway I thank God, the worst is over.
