I’m about to do this job tmrw on my Altima, THANK YOU for your knowledge bro. You’re making the job easier and saving us a ton of money with your channel.
Thanks for the comment man! Definitely appreciate it. Good luck with the job 🤙
Dude, that Nissan purrs. I have a 2015 with 40k and the vvt went out. Your video on that was magic. Thank you and subscribed. Gonna follow all your Nissan stuff!
Thank you! I appreciate the comment! 🙏🙏
Very thorough video, love it! Gonna check out the suspension diagnosing video, hunting a wobble ~ 70 mph and up. 2018, 180k. Got tires, need alignment and struts/shocks, trying to do what I can when I can afford it
Thanks man, appreciate the comment. Lmk what you find 👍
I have a question I have the same car I want a to upgrade my rims to 20in do you know if I would need a different suspension ? After realignment and all??
As long as you keep the overall diameter of the wheel/tire setup the same, you should be fine. You can verify this with a tire calculator (google ‘tire calculator’). So the OEM tire setup is 215/55/17, so to be virtually the same diameter you would need to run a 215/35/20 tire.
But……since you asked, I’m gonna give my opinion lol……20’s aren’t the look for this car. Might have been somewhat acceptable in 2010. But i think 20’s are bit big of a look for an import vehicle like an Altima. If you want a clean upgraded look, go 18’s or 19’s at the most, and lower it. Honestly, just lowering an import car alone (even on stock wheels) gives it a WAY better look than just upgrading wheels will ever give it. Wheels dont matter when you got enough wheel gap to shove your body in-between. Lower it, or upgrade the wheels with a 18” or 19” & a drop….. 🤌
Out of curiosity, how many miles on the car now? My 2015 Altima has nearly 240K on it. The drive is really bumpy now after rotating tires. (I had some wear and wanted to get the "newer" tires to the front" Steering wheel bounces and jiggles all over. I haven't had a chance to inspect my suspension system yet. I suspect one or manh componenets will need to be replaced. The Struts were replaced in the last year, the rear shock aborsorbers several years ago. Nothing else. Aniyway, I'm trying to figure out what the break even point will be for investing in fixing the suspension vs junking the car. My big worry is the CVT will go bad at some point and that is worth more then the car. I've enjoyed the ride so far, especially keeping it up with help from your videoes. Thanks for all the time you've shared on here.
Hey whats going on man. The car has about the same mileage as you now, almost 240k. I would suggest checking out the control arms if they haven’t been replaced. They really affect the ride quality/steering. Check out my recent video on control arms/steering issue, should give you some insight around it:

@@TheOriginalBeeCee I'll definitely be checking that one out. A couple other of your video's that are suspension related too. Thanks for the support.
No problem. Check out like the first 5 minutes of this video as well:
