2005 Nissan-Datsun Truck Frontier 2WD V6-4.0L

Complaint from the customer was:

Engine turns slow, like the battery is out of juice.

First step was to test the battery. Battery tested at 11.47 volts and 14 cold cranking amps. For a good battery it should test at 12.60 volts and over 560 cca, the cca of the battery should be on the sticker on the battery.

Replaced the battery. Tested alternator with VAT-45 test machine, tested at 105 amps at 3000 rpm. Test drove car-good.

'08 Mecedes C300

This 4 door sedan is awesome!! It has 28K miles but runs like new. The interior is black leather and the seats are very comfortable.

Test driving was soothing. Steering and suspension was like riding on the clouds. As for the V6 motor...it has a kick too it. I really like it that the acceleration is instant to the pedal.

A scale from 1-10. I give it an 11. If I had the money I would own this model. not only id is durable, it is very nice to look at.
