Mavor: I dont think they are very strong for Nigerian roads. Most of the cool Nissan cars I know like Murano come witn double silencers which translates to lots of fuel guzzling. Not an economic choice.

How does double silencers equate to bad fuel economy?? WOOWW.. How did u come up with that?? It does not come up to that, alot of things can cause bad fuel economy but having 2 resonators is not a reason why.letting it easy on the gas pedal will help your gas mileage

I am using QX4 and it is the best car ever. 3 yrs on Nija road and no issue except monthly service. THE RIDE IS SWEET.

I don't think nigerians dislike nissan. They've been around for very long and for good reason too. Nissan vehicles are very reliable. The last generation altima is the second highest selling sedan in the US presently, having fixed the problems in previous generation. It leap frogged the corolla and accord in sales.
The just released 2013 altima outclasses the new toyota camry in almost every category including power and fuel economy and may overtake it in sales by 2013.

You just Got my Point "it leap frogged the corolla and accord in sales"...My focus is that Nissan cars seem to be more popular than honda and toyota cars in the US and the same doesn't apply in nigeria.

i use a Nissan pathfinder and spend N5000 or N6000 weekly....thats 24grand monthly in Abuja with good roads... and i dont even use AC cuz the weather is just like London naturally cold unlike lasgidi.. The car neeeds good oil and maintenance thats all., i prefer to spend this monthly than to rub body with conductors in public transport. lol..so Nissan scores like 70% A1 for me.

I use a 1987 Nissan Bluebird GLX (2.0) and it still rocks. Aside the shock absorbers and the gasket I changed sometime in 2010(plus break pads which I change occasionally and the usual fuel and oil filter which one has to change when servicing it), it is still rolling with all it's original parts. I'm finding it difficult to change. If only Nissan can come up with another rugged Bluebird anytime soon...

There can be someting wrong with your car. Car MPG is a very subjective issue, No 2 cars can give u the same mileage. Alot of factors determines the mileage u get
3
U dont need to change the fuel injector nozzle.. it is a waste of money. Never had a maxima i had to change the fuel injector nozzle. Most gas are blended with fuel injector cleaner so that too is not really necessary


Are u being serious right now. The 3.5l engine was first installed in the 2002 nissan maxima then detuned into the Altima then banked for the RWD G35 and 350z and finally installed in the nissan quest.
You dont work with car cus if u do, u would know that nissan uses CVT transmission in the murano. Altima, Maxima and Murano SHARE THE SAME PLATFORM (D PLATFORM)
Now u saying that the weight of the car is the reason for a very bad CVT transmission . loll.. You forgot that nissan gave a 6yr warranty on the cvt transmission cus they belive it is that reliable... People buy Nissans cus it very reliable (me included), and the power band is unbelievable.
A V6 Nissan altima is faster 0-60 than a honda accord , toyota camry and acura tl. Nissans are fun to drive, Interiors are amazing.

The 3.5L is a good engine, and I agree that it is far better than anything coming out from both Honda and Toyota. You will find 3.5L in V6 Altima,and not as a base model. The problem with Murano is not an Engine problem, rather it is a transmission problem. The CVT transmission is good for a sedan, but not for a Cross over vehicle like Murano. That is why Nissan never put the CVT transmission in the Pathfinder even though some Pathfinde uses the 3,5L engine, ditto for QX4 Infiniti. I still believe it has to do with the additional weight on the Murano. If my memory serves me right, there was a recall on the 2003 - 2010 Murano, to correct the torque converter differential. I also drive a 07 Maxima and I love it. For some reason people in Nigeria have never warmed up to Nissan products. I wonder why.

You need fuel injector cleaner. In US,most fuel are now Ethanol blend. Overtime the Ethanol clog up the nozzle. I am not aware of any cleanning additives added to the fuel in Nigeria. In fact I think Nigeria fuel are leaded. (I hope I'm wrong).
Re: Why Do Nigerians Dislike Nissan Cars? by KA24DETT(m): 9:07pm On Jun 23, 2012
I do not think the transmission is the reason why but rather on buyers perceptions of CVT. The problem with the torque converters on earlier muranos was a design flaw rather than as a result of the CVT unit itself. You remenber earlier CVTs has that drone sound which turns off some buyers. Most infiniti and pathfinder buyers like the conventional gear shift feeling which is not found in CVTs. It was a new technology and most buyers were not eager to embrace it. The CVT transmission is use in war tanks, so it is not a question of vehicle size.
You are right though. Our people back home are in LOVE with TOYOTA. it is TOYOTA OR NEVER.

Don't make a mistake of comparing apples and oranges. The QX and Pathy are all REAR WHEEL DRIVE! Not sure if there has been a CVT on a RWD vehicles (hope im wrong). An remember that the QX stops in 03 and Pathy in 04 (for that body style). Even the CVT did not make it into the Maxima till 07. (Still hunting for the 06 6-speed maxima if i win lottery )

Up till now i think that the pathfinder is still running the conventional auto tranny. While Nissan has been the most successful with their CVT, the jury is still out on them as far as reliability.

Back to the poster, even as far back as the days of Datsun C20 and Toyota Liteace, its be believed (rightly/wrongly) that Toyota is a better car. Still true till today. A brand new Hiace sells for more that the Urvan and that is why you see more transport companies with Hiace than Urvans going cross country.

Sometimes PERCEPTION is reality. If i am buying to sell, i will give the people what the people want. So says James Brown!
Re: Why Do Nigerians Dislike Nissan Cars? by automaticcars: 5:17am On Jun 25, 2012
I just don't know why Nigerian don't patronize Nissan vehicles like they buy honda and toyotas. Nissan are reliable if not more reliable than other japanese cars. The only problem I see in the Nissan vehicles are the interior designs which are not on the same level as that of honda or toyota.
Re: Why Do Nigerians Dislike Nissan Cars? by Trac: 10:08pm On Jun 25, 2012
Nissan cars are imitations. The Z has always been an imitation of the Carerra (since the 70's) and now, they've taken up the Turbo. They are loud about it and do a poor job at it too. When you come up with something to beat the industry-benchmark for a fraction of the cost, there will definitely be an explanation to how to cost-savings were made.


To those referring to the R35, if you worked hard for your money, you wouldn't err in purchasing one - either used or new.
Re: Why Do Nigerians Dislike Nissan Cars? by tyor: 9:53am On Jun 26, 2012
I read thru the thread from beginning and I didnot see the response that befits an average nigerian car user. The comments and criticism so far has been educating for the car savvy.

From a dealer/manufacturer's perspective, there is no demand for NISSAN CARS in Nigeria. An average Nigerian car user wants a car for the following reasons and conditions.

1. A car that would help boost his personality in the society (I beta pass my landlord but)
2. A car that wud be efficient in maintenance (N10,000 for servicing)
3. Low fuel consumption (10litres per day from Magodo-V/Island)
4. Less complexity (in terms of electrical parts, because Nigerian mechanics have Half-education like GEJ)
5. A car that is everywhere and spare parts are available @ Ladipo or Owode.
6. A car that has 3rd-hand value (Bank-used corolla (4yrs old) bought by a staff and sold after anoda 4years for N1m)

A NISSAN CAR only meets condition no. 1.....Classy and luxurious looks. Conditions 2-6 can be found in ALL TOYOTA Cars and that is the reason why Nigerians keep buying a 1999 Camry for N1million naira. When a 2002/3 Nissan Altima with better performance sells for (about) the same amount due to low demand.

A Honda car meets conditions 1,4,5,6 & sometimes 2.

Does it not strike you that an average Nigerian would rather buy a brand new Hyundai or KIA, than buy a NISSAN? NISSAN is a GOOD and effective car, however, they are not for Nigerian Roads and the finances available to us.

Oh wow. Do u actually own one or its a her-say from some magazine. Because R35 is cheaper does not mean it cannot beat the 911 turbo. It beat 911 time on the Nürburgring. Oh, Porsche makes the most money than any auto manufacturer on every unit of its car sold. They would, considering they manufacture the boxter on the same line they manufacture the 911. No need to retool the plant. Dr. Ing. h.c. F. will continue selling its products at exorbitant prices with no major change in base design for years to come.

Sheer ignorance. A twin-exit muffler doesn't translate to a higher than average consumption rate. If anything, it'll reduce consumption, all things being equal, because the engine can breathe better.

Your friend's method of checking fuel consumption is seriously flawed. You can't work out consumption data by saying a 100-litre tank runs dry in a week, driving from Ketu to Marina daily. That means nothing. I don't know what the route is like - distance, average speeds reached on these trips, coolant temperature (does the engine ever get up to full operating temp?) Short trips are heavier on fuel than long ones.

And I feel your friend is expecting too much from his Nissan Altima. It has a big 2,5L motor mated to a heavy automatic tranny, and he expects it to be as economical as a Toyota Corolla 1,4. To produce good power, you need to produce heat. And to produce heat, you need to burn fuel, end of. If your buddy feels the Altima is too juicy, there's always the Nissan Sunny 1,4L.

@Sienna, even your explanation aside, my 3.5L V6 2005 Altima uses about 4.6L of petrol from iyana ipaja area to v/i (1 direction) which is in the range of 35km, by far farther than magodo to v/i which is a str8 line. So there's definitely a problem with that 2003, 2.5L Altima engine.

Nissans re fun to drive i have to agree...i used a 89 model nissan bluebird 2.0 slx for 10 years and it never dissapointed once....its d 8 plugs 2.0 engine.it accelerates like a jet and its braking system is off the hook....she was just fun while she lasted...the only issue i had with it was costly parts but then d parts are rarely faulty.
I had used a 99 toyota camry after it for about 2 years and currently a 98 accord and i tell you not one of these can meet the acceleration of the Nissan bluebird between 0 and 80km/h.

Unbelievable shocked shocked shocked( charlie sheen)

3.7l=1 gal
100l=27 gal

Your friend was able to fit 27gal in a 20gal car.
Go to info screen and check mpg your friend gets, the compare to another camry on same route then you'll discover its even.

I guess all those Datsun and Nissan cabs are not made for Naija.

Thanks a lot.
Dont know why someone would expect a 2.5l engine car to have the same fuel consumption as a 2.2l or 1.8l.
Nissan makes cars for pple who enjoy the art of driving and cant afford the luxury brands.
They make the best engines in the japanese lineup and their cars are pretty reliable.
Toyotas are good but too ubiquitous and simplistic (i guess that's what makes them durable and easy to work on).
Driving a toyota is like eating garri every afternoon(boring).

Na na. the proper thing to say is 'Toyota and Honda cars are over priced in Nigeria'. Both brand new and used. Partly because of the demand and then the general street impression. Recent Nissan cars has slight differeces in both engine and electrical tech. Toyota and Honda are basically thesame thing with different names. eg, honda's IVTEC is exactly = toyotas VVTi, just different names. In the early histories of both companies, they were working togther. Nissan on the other hand had some major changes to their engine and other systems. But for a country like Nigeria were new tech is learnt by trial and error, the early owners of those nissan cars never enjoyed their cars as they were simply destroyed by their mechanics. The same mechanics sold the idea that nissan cars were no longer good cars. u can read more here 101carsense..com

A friend of mine owns both a Toyota Solara Convertible with a V6 engine and a Nissan Altima with a V6 engine.

babs2aroks: I was suprised at the volume/number of Nissans cars I saw on my trip to the US. It is shocking that Nissan as a brand in Nigeria is not adopdted as a reliable car e.g the Nissan Murano etc. It was also shocking to see the Altima on every five mile as I drove, which was by far the most popular. I just wonder why Nigerians don't appreciate Nissan? Why?

THEIR SUSPENSION IS TOO POOR FOR OUR ROADS, ESPECIALLY WHERE I LIVE OVER HERE ;THOSE WHO BOUGHT HER PRIMERIA ARE SHOCKED AT HER MECHANICAL RATE OF DEPRECIATION(THE BODY JUST SLACKEN OUT AT NO TIME IN OUR OWN ENVIRONMENT; THOSE WHO OWN THE ALTIMA ARE LAMENTING WITHE THE POOR QUALITY OF MATERIAL; THE DASH; BUMBERS; LAMPS ETC; WITH THEIR NON AVALABILTY OR HIGH COST TOO;THOSE WHO BOUGHT THEIR XTERRA ARE REALLY REGRETTING FOR POOR SUSPENSION ; THOSE WHO BOUGHT THEIR MURANO ARE SELLING IT OFF FOR PEANUT COS THEY CANT COPE WITH HER HIGH MAITENANCE COST ANY MORE. MORESO, IF YOU ARE TO OWN ONE, YOU MUST GO BY THE RULE 100 PERCENT ELSE FACE THE FIRING SQUAD, NO CUTTING OF CONNERS , WHICH IS TYPICAL OF NIGERIAN AND OUR MECHANIC, SO ITS NOT A NIGERIAN RIDE.
