Nissan Repair: 2000 maxima, vehicle speed sensor, air control valve


Question
Von,
Maybe you can help.  I purchased a used 2000 Maxima with 65,000 miles.  First, I had to replace all of the ignition coils.  then I got the P0430 code and failed inspection.  Replaced the pre-cat and and passed NJ DMV inspection.  Two weeks later, upon cold start, hard brake pedal followed by a later service engine light and stalling.  P0505 code, stalling, & odd shifting patterns.  P0500 code.  Where do I go from here?  Thanks.

Answer
Tom,

Replace teh idle air control valve and the vehicle speed sensor.  Disconnect the battery for five minutes and then reconnect and you should be off to the races.  I have a 2000 Maxima SE and have over 150K on it and have done all the things you have done as well as the two new things you are doing.  A great car with minimal repairs.
