Just picked up my 04 TL with Navi

Hey,

Just wanted to introduce myself on this forum. since I will be a regular asking many questions on 'do it yourself' issues on my 04 TL/Navi. I picked it up last week, white on baige 13000miles certified. It is a dream to look at and drives great. Traded my 2000 Maxima for it, was actually gonna pick up the G35X but after comparing the interiors, drive and money went for the TL. Anyways I am very happy to find the TL forum, and see how you guys help each other out, since I was a regular at the Maxima forum and did a lot of work on my Maxima learning from the people at that forum. Is there anything I gotta watch out for at the milage and stuff, please do let me know.

Jake.

Congrats and welcome!

I'm new myself, just came from an Audi A4 last month.

People here are pretty helpful. Just make sure you search the archive first.

Welcome from another 2004 TL owner. You will want to check out the 3G Garage, which is linked at the top of the main 3G Forum page. Also, click "2 year review" in my sig to review my experience with my car, that may be helpful to you.

What is your VIN range? < or > 14k? The early cars like mine had a tranny recall for a 2nd gear oil jet, you want to make sure this is dealt with if you're 14k or below. If you're above 14k, no worries. Also check your seat memory. If it loses memory, your seat memory module needs to be replaced.

I've got just about 42k miles, and no big worries.

Thanks everyone for the warm welcome. Neronbob I just passed 14000 miles have 14500 on it now, I don't feel much issues with the tranny except that it is not as smooth as I expected it to be. Just a tad bit harsh while changing gears is that normal, or should I get that checked. Memory seat seems fine for now.

Actually, I was referring to the last five of your VIN number.

Hey All...
I am a new TL-er myself
I am coming off an 02 Altima with a TON of work done on it...Im thinking about calming down with the TL a lil...but I can be pretty easily swayed into going crazy with it also =p

I also got the white w/ parchment interior and I got a killer deal on a leftover brand new 2005...let me know if anyone is interested as the dealer I went to had a few left i think
