Why are nl peeps advertising 2005 2006 2007 nissan murano at price ranges of 1.5m and 1.7m. I find it rather suspicious. Clarifications for the hhouse plzzz

Murano is know for gear problem and it will cost abt N500k to replace the gear. Mwhile there is no guarantee from where u r buying the gear

I am sure the ones you are talking about are the Nigerian used.
Also the source of the rides are not known, cos it is impossible for anyone to sell a 2007 Murano for 1.7M Naira if there is nothing fishy

@benez
I think it would rather communicate well if you said the Murano's are known for tranmission mis-management that say "gear problem". No car company would release their cars if it's known to have a problem. It would be recalled.

The Murano's have a transmission different from the usual ones most cars have. This is called a CVT (Continuous Variable Transmission) and not AT (Automatic Transmission) and CVT's are meant to be serviced by their own special CVT oils rather than the common transmission oils (ATF) we use here. This is where the problem develops from. Different oils have variable viscous levels - Note that.

Kind regards.

[color=#770077][/color]I generally think apart from gear problems and all,its a Nissan thing. Their prices fall realy fast.
Check out xterra,maxima 03 and the likes.
That is not to take anything away from nissan products though.

But Bro, i sold my first Fx45 for 1.5m, just used it for only 4 months, sometimes things do make u to sell it at just any price
Re: Why Is Nissan Murano Becoming Cheap? by koyaabj: 11:11am On Jun 21, 2011
Murano are good cars if only u can maintain them according to specifications, the gear oil cost about =N= 30,000.00 naira and should be serviced from time to time, also the cheapest morano which is asia spec can't be less than 2.5m, top of the range american spec 2005-7 can't be less than 3.m-3.5m, except for stolen cars or nija used. i own one since 2009 and i have not changed the gear till date infact the engine has never been opened by any mechanic yet i drive the vehicle almost everyday if u do travel outside this shore ask any body about morano and u will be surprised that it is one of the best vehicles and very durable. cool grin cheesy shocked

(i)  People us regular ATF instead of NISSAN's CVT fluid
(ii) Use of Aluminium parts on the Chasis
(iii) Parts made in modules that require outright replacement (Naija mechanics are used to "Oga we work am ")
(iv) most users do not know they need a service manual for their Muranos

How come I never come across these sorts of 'dagbo' bargains? I've been looking for a hitech SUV to buy for a 'ridiculous' amount. In case you want to sell your LR 3 next time for N850k, don't fail to hola at me oh. Waiting till then.

Because the parts are bloody too expensive. Nobody would like to keep a Murono for long. The price will even become cheaper with time.

Nissan Murano is a great SUV if only proper maintenance is given it, just like any other vehicle.
The most dodgy issue lies in the gear oil. Put the wrong stuff and your transmission goes. Next
is to put it up for sale at a low price for quick sale. Thats why Murano is becoming cheap. Bye.
