Hi,
Was driving to work about a week ago and Mo stalled on me twice. Further, it had a weird noise coming from the front.
As it turns out, the front right wheel bearings were shot and two front wheel sensors were shot as well (bearings were the noise and sensors were the stalling).
All in all, it was $850 to fix it. Ouch.
ps - I probably spelt bearings wrong - so be gentle on me...my wallet is about 1K lighter today and I'm not in the best of moods. |

I don't get it! Front wheel sensors=stalling???
Someone will have to expalin that one to me!
(I DO understand $850 though) |

e-
I agree with you. I do not see how a defective wheel sensor (ABS?) would cause the car to stall. I also find it very odd that two wheel sensors failed at about the same time. Does anyone else smell something fishy?

Replacement bearing - $180
labour - 2 hrs max
Sensors? do not know..
But i cannot see connection between sensor and engine stalling either..... |

| great. I'll grab my "summary" from Nissan tomorrow (in the car and I'm to lazy/bitter to look at it now). But as they explained it, that was the jist. |

ok....now that I have a sizable burr up my rump at this point, I went downstairs and got the invoice...here is what is says:
T20 Consult test and report on Check Engine light coming on
1-23721-AL61A Sensor $98.09
1-23731-6J906 Sensor $98.09
EE Engine Electrical
Labour $94
I'm assuming the two sensors are the right and left (that is the way it was explained to me at least. |

Kris-
MSRP for the front wheel speed sensors is $135.32.

| I assume this would be related to the traction control/VDC or AWD system - the wheel speed sensors are used to monitor speed differences between all four wheels - if the sensors go bad, the ECU might detect "wheelspin" or a huge difference in wheel speeds between axles and thereby shut down the engine to protect the powertrain. |
