Altima SV 2.5L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 500 miles

Every morning when starting this car you can hear a metal to metal sound in the engine, after seconds it is gone. When I am driving on the street or on the freeway, under acceleration,the engine rattles and make the same knocking sound . I took it to the Dealer, they test it and the technician said that the Nissan motors are that way, that nothing they can do because the motor is build that way..
