Hello, quick question about a 2007 Nissan maxima I own, usually when I
drive aggressive I get a overwhelming rotten egg smell, I have had my cats
checked and the dealership said they were fine. Any ideas on why I get this
smell? Car has 75k miles on it and the cvt tranny, car does seem a lil
sluggish every since I owned it, I did put a K&N filter on it and one can
of seafoam about a year ago. Thanks for the help

Hi, Great Vid. My son has a 2006 Nissan Altima and the check engine light
is on continuously. A scan was done and a code P0443 was generated. Can
this be a defective EVAP Canister Purge Volume Solenoid Valve? From your
experience, if it is, is this ‘issue’ detrimental to the overall
performance of the engine? What would your recommendation(s) be? Thanks in
advance.

Best instructional video I’ve seen! Your clones should be planted in the
field of medicine instead of mechanics…failed smog checks are nothing
compared to the cost of Doctors who lack your skills and can’t communicate.

Nice video, quick question.. on the purge valve itself.. doing the ohm
test, if I get a reading of 2 ohms on test 2 and 1 and a reading of 30 ohms
on the rest of the test does that mean the purge valve is bad? I couldn’t
do the vacuum sensor test at the rear, but I am getting code P1445. I am
also getting O2 sensor code, but I test the O2 sensor and its good..
Basically, what I want to know is.. do I need to do the other other test at
the rear of the car to confirm everything or can I just change out the
purge volume valve?

I have a 99 vw jetta 2.8 and when i plug in the hose on the back of the
upper intake manifold that goes to the leak detection pump the car just
stalls out for some reason?

Hey +CarsNToys I have a 1998 Nissan Maxima as well, and received the P1445
code recently. About 2 weeks ago, I had the rear vapor canister purge valve
replaced. The mechanic cleaned out the lines a bit cause he said it was
dirty. Could it be that the lines are clogged or dirty again and needs to
be cleaned some more?

I have this code on my 97 maxima, so i did all your tests and my check
Engine light is still on. I drove over 100 miles and the engine light is
still on, any ideas?

Thanks for the video and hopefully I will be getting closer to isolating
the problem. Everything checked out except for the male side of the EVAP
purge volume control valve. All the terminals read ~30 ohms except for
terminals 2,1. all they read is 1. So you think I should replace the whole
unit or keep troubleshooting?

Carlo Santora says:

Make sure to note that care should be taken to avoid placing the dvom leads
directly into the harness connector pins.

I’m getting 33.5 ohms, does that mean its stuck open some? Or is that close
enough?
