  • Kinda Worried - 2003 Nissan Murano
    By -

    I purchased this vehicle less than a month ago and it has been in the shop for the last 5 days. It wouldnt start, and I had to get it towed back to the dealership. Due to it being a new model, the mechanics had to play phone tag with the Nissan engineers to try to figure out what was wrong with it. I was told it was something to do with the fuel injector system, which has about 5 different components. Once they fixed the fuel pressure problem, now the electrical system is tripping up the fuel system. Supposedly fixed now, but I am still kinda worried. Wondering if anyone else is having this same problem.

    Got a silver Murano 3 weeks ago. The Murano ride is much better than the Pathfinder. I lovet the CVT no more those upshift feeling.

    This is the second Nissan Ive owned. I bought it with 16k miles about four years ago, and it just turned over 92k. I drove it back and forth from NY to VA several times, and it was very comfortable and got decent mileage. No major problems whatsoever. I step on the gas and response is immediate. Great speed-to-speed acceleration, too. The interior could be better, but Im 63" and feel very comfortable inside. I wish it had an auxiliary hookup for audio devices, and the CVT has kind of a dynaflow effect every now and then; a 5-speed automatic or 4-speed with O/D would be better suited for the car. Once I refinance the mortgage, Im getting a fully loaded 09 Murano LE AWD.

  • Best ride ever - 2003 Nissan Murano

    You have to drive this vehicle to really appreciate it. Very quiet and smooth, tremendous power from the V-6. Build quality is great.

  • Smooth Ride Up The Grape Vine - 2003 Nissan Murano
    By -

    This is one of the smoothest vehicle for traveling. I could not feel the transmission shift at all during an up hill climb as compare to vehicle without the MURANOs CVT. Also, the cruise control maintained its speed without dropping out or deviating too far from its set point. In addition, lots of power and torque, yet agile and smooth, head turning style, and a car-like drive. This vehicle is fun, fun, fun. . . . .

  • 21st Century SUV - 2003 Nissan Murano

    Enjoying the ride, the gas mileage (Premium gas not required), the BOSE system, and the double takes on the road. Acceleration is impressive with the CVT. Test drove the Lexus and BMW and came back to the Murano. My Sunday drives are now All Week drives.
