  • Nissan Maxima rattling under load

  • Nissan Maxima making pinging sound

    If the knock sensor was at fault it would show up as such on a computer check, and changing the plugs to colder ones is unlikely to do anything, and it's not possible to reset the ignition. Check the airflow meter and have a carbon clean carried out. The most likely cause of the problem is a build-up of carbon in the engine.
