Common problems and easy repairs on a 1999 Almera

The 1999 Nissan Almera GX is a somewhat easy car to maintain. The tail lights can all be accessed by removing small portions of the trunk lining, allowing for reliable bulb changes. The oil dipstick is quick to find towards the front of the engine and can be removed with ease, allowing for easy monitoring of the oil level. The engine air filter isn’t a problem to change, as no tools are needed to disengage the housing nor to remove the filter itself.

However, the 1999 Nissan Almera GX has its difficulties. The numerous fuse boxes in the engine bay may create a problem when doing electrical troubleshooting, complicating your search for a faulty fuse. The glove box needs to be removed to access the cabin air filter, which won’t allow for reliable access. The lower radiator hose needs to be disconnected to drain the radiator coolant, which could be a messy procedure.
