Just sharing some information about my n16 2001.
Recently experienced engine stalled, followed by engine furious vibration when cranking. The garage A changed the crankshaft positioning sensor (which i have already replaced few years back) but engine vibrate irregularly during idle. Garage B change my fuel pump (which solves aircond compressor fuel compensation problem), engine still vibrate irregularly.
After extensive googling and analyzing, suspecting is the timing chain tensioner wear out, causing cam timing misaligned, hence irregular vibration during idle. N16's QG16DE timing chain is advised to service at mileage 300k km (which I forgot + didn't keep track), and i think it is good to have it service before problem shows up.
Those half-past-six mechanics are really useless, will f**k the mechanic when i send my car to service the timing chain... maybe in such a way, i'm get to gain more experience/knowledge about car

hi,
if u staying near to Banting Selangor, I will recommend you go to Kim Ban Huat Auto Company, bcoz they have well trained foreman and also they are one of the Nissan authorised service center and price is very reasonable too.
Now all my service is done at there, 2 year ago done top overhaul less than RM 1000, change auto gearbox RM 1400.
Their boss is very knowledgeable in automotive, when other workshop cant fix my radiator water level decreasing (quite abnormal, some time will not leak, some time all water gone), their boss just open the radiator cap and see the water bubble coming up at the radiator cap outlet, he already know what is the cause and told me the gasket already burnt, need to do top overhaul.
It is good to find a workshop that is trustworthy, reliable and reasonable pricing.
