I assume that you have a 4cyl engine, and that problem is from the engine. there are two places that you can check, remove all ignition coils and see if there is any sign of oil on it, if it does, replace valve cover gasket and clean that coil. The second place is, a little difficult to check, look for the crank sensor, it located on the right/rear/lower of the engine (if you are standing on the driver side, look toward the rear of the engine, it's on your right and on the bottom of the engine), look for the harness, you will find a plug with a green tab, push it in and then pull the plug out. Any sign of oil, replace the sensor and clean that plug. Good luck!

SOURCE: Low idle and hesitation when driving

i had a similar problem, with a different car though, and it turned out that the seals in the fuel pumps had been eaten away by the ethanol in the fuel i was using. i had the fuel pumps replaced as well as the filter and switched to a different fuel that contained no ethanol and i haven't had a problem since.

2009 Altima won't excelerate after long drive time

You have a CVT in the 2009 Altima so there are no true gears. Any noise you hear could be the belt breaking down or the transmission going belly up. Have you had the fluid changed? If not, I suggest you go to a repair shop and get it done. Nissan CVT are notorious at breaking down and typical cost about 4K USD to repair.

Re:nissan almera 2006 1.5 petrol.\r\ntruble

I am having the same problem. I have changed my cam shaft sensor and though it has improved a little but the problem is still there, i've been told it could be the 'air flow meter'. I am having somebody check it out tonight (plugged into some computer to ID the problem)
