Engine Performance problem
2005 Nissan Sentra Front Wheel Drive Automatic

Hi. The Engine Service Soon Light of my 2005 Nissan Sentra came on in Oct 2009 and I took it to get fixed. They found the Swirl sensor in manifold shorted and they got it replaced. It cost me about $ 1300. Now (Dec 18 2009) the Engine light is on again. I called the place where I got it fixed the first time and they said that I have to bring my car back to run a test on the engine. Does this usually happen with the engine? what is wrong with the engine? and how do I know they are telling me the truth? Thank you for your answers.

The only way to be sure is to have it rescanned to see if the same code comes up.

Here is my concern, you didn't list the mileage on the vehicle. This could be covered under the emissions warranty. Check your owner's manual to determine if you are still within the mileage. I believe it was 5 years and ? miles. If it is and was done at a dealer, they owe you the money back.

Let me know if you have other questions.
