Bought it in November of 2021, 153k miles.... April of 22, replace a front brake line. Father’s Day, replaced both cam position sensors..... last week, 2 lower ball joints, One inner and one outer tie rods, one rear axle seal.... yesterday, replaced a busted radiator. Yup, glad I held out for a manual transmission to buy so I wouldn’t have to change the radiator to prevent SMOD! Now,.. today... and today! The damn rubber stopper thing for the friggin clutch safety start switch fell apart! REALLY? Owning an X is fun! Lol... oh, and today I also found one of the air intake boots is busted... new one ordered... yay! Lol

I'd be upset with the previous owner on poor maintenance and not Nissan with only owning it 8sh months. Glad to hear it's in good hands and being maintained now though.

Well all parts changed so far appeared to be factory... I’m guessing it was time for them to go south....when I bought it, I was shocked how nice the interior was, not even sure the back seats were ever sat in.... good service records from the buyer, but he only had it three years....not sure of anything beyond that....

I believe folks have stuck one of the push in body panel clips in to replace the clutch safety switch rubber piece.

Looks like local parts store might have what I need... but for the hell of it, til I get there, I kinda made a temporary one out of a piece of an old windshield wiper blade... worked great so far for the last several starts! Lol

My clutch safety switch broke. So I removed it and soldered the contacts together inside the switch and plugged it back in. Perminent clutch bypass.
