Hi,
Searching around this forum, I see the pre-cat failure is covered until 8years/80k. Let's say that the engine gets damaged as a result of pre-cat failures, will the engine replacement be covered too?
I got the ECM, rear suspension and exhaust/pre-cat recall done a few weeks ago. Now, should I just sell the Altima now? I haven't had any problems regarding oil consumption.
Heard about some getting the engine replaced for free under the warranty if pre-cat fails and is sucked into the motor.
I am looking for a way around the problem altogether. If anyone can help. I have a 2002 Altima 2.5L. I live in California (tough emission control center), and am trying to find out if there is a way to place a header on the car and place a catalytic converter under the car. Any suggestions?

I have a thread titled "Precatalytic Disaster" on 3-8-09. I have an 03 altima 2.5 s with 98,000 that I just purchased and I, too, am worried about engine failure. Check the thread because there was some interesting advice although I'm leaning toward replacing the precat just for piece of mind.

I have an 03 altima and I was wondering what was done during the exhaust recall repair. Was a shield added to the precat or did you get a new precat? Because if you did get a new precat then I would think your car would be good to go for a lot more miles.
I had oil consumption issues with my 03 and it took a little screaming but the dealer finally put a new 2007 engine in my car and linked it to precat failure under the emmision warranty.
how long is the emission warranty on nissan?? i have a 2004 spec v and purchased it in 2007 im going through hell with the p0420 trouble code and having same issues with getting car covered under precat warranty coverage??
hey guys i re tighten the intake manifold but it keeps on lowering its rpm to about 200, its code is P0174 systemto lean bank 2.i have already replaced the flow meter, could that be a problem?
It's probably your EGR valve pintle getting stuck which is caused by precat material falling apart and getting into the pintle sleeve. Replaced my precat (which was jussssst out of warranty and the part is proprietary to Nissan and $$$) and then a few months later the SES light popped back on. Everything is a job to do in this car.
