1.8 also has higher HP and Torque. Driving in City, the FC will be higher than 1.6, but driving on highway, better FC than 1.6.

Hi all N16 owners,

My N16 has brake rattling noise when going over uneven road, the sound is like "krrrroook krrroookkk krooookkkkkk", when apply brake the sound gone, if let got the brake, the sound comes back again. It happens only on uneven road. Please advice or recommend me any good workshop around kl area.

Thank You.

This is because of the brake caliper has been loosen, I got one solution for you to try, and my N16 don't has such noise after that, and it's been more than 1 years. First send your car to a nearest workshop, ask that mechanic dismantle the brake caliper, and put silicon inside that 2 tiny hole that hold the brake caliper. This method is very good and my N16, my friends one also solved the brake caliper problem.

That why lor.. Even compare with my house civic FD2.0, Latio 1.8, and saga 1.3, my sentra FC is really terrible..

Another thing I wonder is what happen with nissan service centre.. When I do my first service on my sentra, I wanna use semi synthetic engine oil but there said not advisable and force me to use mineral oil. So I accept that cause only 1k service.. So last two weeks, I brought my latio 1.8 to the same service centre to do 20k km service. The same answer given by the Service Advisor that cannot use other oil except for the mineral.. As he said not advisable.. So I get very frustrated. Don't tell me a nissan can't ever use semi synthetic or fully synthetic engine oil.. So i don't give a d*mn and force him to give me fully synthetic oil.. End up, he agreed by giving me fully synthetic after I said I will service it at outside is Nissan provide me such services.. I wonder izit nowday tan choong service centre too rich edi.. Even got business also don't want.

My N16 manual trans can get 16-19km/l leh for fully highway drive with average speed in between 100-120km/h, but mostly stay at 110km/h, how come yours can get very FC that high? Should take your car to the nearest Nissan SC for checking, must be something wrong there.

Ic, great ! May i know where you go to do the dismantle and putting silicon ? Is it in kl area ? Is it using a kind of silicon that can stand the accessive heat of the brake ?

I'm from Puchong area, any workshop can do the job for you, as long as the mechanic know how to dismantle the brake caliper tongue.gif
Silicon, simply buy at any hardware shop also can, mostly people use it to seal the aqaurium one, this is to prevent the caliper rod from vibrating inside the hole when going through rough surface road.

user N16 auto trans out there...,the o/d and air bags light will blink on and off then u can start ur engine.
but what if the o/d light keep blinking for about 5 sec and off...then u start ur engine....then u drive the car,when changing gear from 1st to 2nd feels like the car jump like it change the gear in the hard way or we can say "tersentap". This only happen after i get the weird engine checking of the o/d blinking rather then stay blink before it go off. rclxub.gif

the problem start after friend of my parents take my car to change the battery that is "kong" yesterday...and when he deliver the car back to me...the o/d light is on...i assume that he drove here and there with the overdrive on....

today i wanna ask the pomen to check,and before that i go bought GB oil,ori nissan one....when i get back in my car after bought the oil...all the prob is gone and it back to normal...really2 confusing lor.....go to pomen cek he said all is ok...maybe something is not tight for the sensor...or maybe the ECU is resetting or not stable for a while as the car battery is dead for a day...so pening already.. blink.gif

I think you should send your car back to TCM for engine diagnostic before something worse come. Or maybe your friend isn't follow the proper way to change the battery and caused the ECU got problem already.

Yes, TC will charge you for sending your car to do the engine diagnostic, unless your car is still within warranty period. The price is around RM70-80 kua!

I would like to ask can N16 1.6 change engine to 2.0L? I'm planning to transplant my current Sentra QG16DE engine to X-Trail 2.0 QR20DE engine, but don't know whether JPJ will give approval or not lar. Anyone at here try before?

Beause actually Nissan Sentra N16 in China & Japan, they using QR20DE engine, even in US, they also using QR20DE. I have asked my friend who is a mechanic, he said QR20DE can fit inside N16 and no need to modify anything, just change the engine and gearbox, that's all. And I have found a X-trail half cut with QR20DE and 6 speed manual, so thinking to transplant it to my N16. But the problem is whether JPJ will give approval or not.

Hi, I would like to ask something and hope you guys can let me know. I just changed my rims from 14" to 15", base on the guy in Tan Chong, he recommended me to add wheel spacer, is that true that I should add wheel spacer since I only use 15" rims with 195/60/R15 tires? Thanks.

Hi, does any Sentra N16 owner ever installed a GPS and modified it it the console box on the center of the dashboard just like the one in Taiwan Sentra N16? I've trying to find a shop that can help me to modify it, but i seems like I have no luck on this modification, does anyone know which shop can help me modify it, thanks.
