Expert Answers about Nissan Altima


  • Can a 2-Inch x 8-Inch Flex Joint Connect Catalytic Converter on 2004 Nissan Altima
  • The MagnaFlow Ceramic Catalytic Converter # MF444105 that you referenced fits 3.5L V6 models of the Nissan Altima. The converters we offer for your car with the 2.5L inline 4 can be seen on the link provided. Some of these are universal-fit types that weld on, such as # MF99205HM, while others are direct fit, such as # MF93287. Note that some of these do not have an O2 port. A 2-inch-diameter flex-joint should work as long as that is the dimension of your exhaust tubing.

  • Will the Draw-Tite for the 2013 Nissan Altima fit the 4 Cylinder Models Also
  • I spoke to my contact at Draw-Tite and he said that the hitch # 24796 can be used on the 2013 Nissan Altima 4 cylinder or 6 cylinder as long as it is a sedan. However, if your owners manual says that the 4-cylinder models should not have hitches installed on them then you should go with their recommendation so as not to void your warranty. Check out the installation video and instructions I attached for this product also.

  • How to Carry a 3 Wheel Scooter with a 2006 Nissan Altima
  • According to the owners manuel for your 2006 Nissan Altima, the maximum tongue weight rating allowed for your vehicle is 100 lbs. This means that the weight of the carrier and scooter cannot exceed this rating. The Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 24788 which is a confirmed fit for your Altima has a maximum tongue weight rating of 200 lbs but since the vehicle is rated lower, that will be your limiting factor.

  • Will a Swagman Threaded Hitch Pin and Cable Lock Fit a Saris Bike Rack
  • If the Saris bike rack does have a threaded hitch pin hole, then only a Saris threaded hitch pin will fit. Each company makes their threaded parts unique so only their parts are compatible with each other. If the Saris rack does not have a threaded hitch pin, you could most likely use the Hollywood Racks 2" Hitch Lock and 8' Cable Lock for Bike Racks # HRLHPC2 for the non-threaded pin and cable lock. If you just want a cable lock, you can use # e98891. For a 1-1/4 inch receiver hitch...

  • Is The Thule T2 Classic 2 Bike Rack Too Heavy For A 2015 Nissan Altima
  • I do have a solution for you but it's important to note the # TH9044-TH9046 rack is for use with a 2" only receiver and the only hitches confirmed to fit your 2015 Altima are 1-1/4". Another option is the Thule T2 Classic 2 Bike Platform Rack - 1-1/4" Hitches # TH9045 that would fit a 1-1/4" receiver and weighs 50lbs. Adding that weight to your bikes you can determine your total weight to see if it exceeds the vehicle maximum for the Altima. You always need to consult your owners manual...

  • Will Swagman XTC-2 Bike Carrier, Part # S64670, Fit on a 2006 Nissan Altima?
  • This Swagman bike carrier, part # S64670, is intended for use on vehicles that have a trailer hitch receiver installed under the rear bumper. (It is a hitch-mount type bike carrier.) If your Altima does have a hitch receiver, such as the Curt Class 1 Hitch for the 2006 Nissan Altima, part # C11264, you can use this type of rack. You can check underneath your rear bumper to see if there is a 1-1/4 inch square opening visible in the center; this would be the hitch receiver opening into...

  • Will the Swagman XC Bike Rack Support a Townie Bike
  • The Swagman XC Bike Rack, # S64650, should be able to hold a townie bike, but to be absolutely certain that this bike rack will support your bike, we will want to take a few measurements on your bike. First, this bike rack can support a wheel base up to 51-1/2 inches long. To find the wheel base on your bike, measure from the center of the front wheel axle to the center of the rear wheel axle. Next, you will want to find the width of your tires. The wheel loops on this rack can support...

  • Compatibility of Thule Doubletrack Bike Rack with 2007 Nissan Altima
  • The Thule Doubletrack is compatible with the hitch, but there will most likely be a clearance issue between the rack and the vehicle. If you will click on the video link I have provided you can see that once installed, the distance from the hitch pin hole in the receiver to the point where the rear bumper is cleared is 7 inches. The shank (the piece that slides into the receiver) on the Doubletrack measures 6-1/2 inches from the hitch pin hole to the closest portion of the folding mechanism....

  • Will the Thule X2 Pro XTR Work on a Class I Hitch?
  • I have a great solution for you. Since Class I hitches only come with a hitch receiver of 1-1/4 inches, the Thule T2 Pro XTR will not fit a Class I hitch. The reason why it won't fit is because the Thule Pro XTR is only made for 2-inch hitch receivers, which come with a rating of Class III, Class IV, and Class V. All of the different classes have different weight ratings that they can hold safely. With that being said, if you want a similar rack to the Thule Pro XTR that will fit a Class...

  • Recommended Size Transmission Cooler for a 2007 Nissan Altima with CVT
  • The Derale Series 8000 Plate-Fin Transmission Cooler Kit part # D13501 would be a good size for a 2007 Nissan Altima so this is what I recommend. It comes with everything that you need for installation as well. I can't really speak of this vehicle or transmission combo specifically but reducing the transmission fluid temperature via a more efficient transmission cooler will help prolong the life of the transmission.

  • Recommended Tire Chains for a 2003 Nissan Altima with 215/55-17 Tires
  • According to the owner's manual for your 2003 Nissan Altima, tire chains can be used so long as they are Class S compatible. Therefore for your 215/55-17 tires, I recommend the Titan Chain Alloy Snow Tire Chains part # TC1547. These are among my favorite tire chains to use due to their cost effective price, ease of installation, and performance in both light snow/ice. You can check out a pair of them installed on a similar vehicle which have attached for you.

  • Fit of Hollywood Racks Express Trunk Mount 2 Bike Carrier # HRE3 on a 2011 Nissan Altima Sedan
  • Since you don't have a spoiler, the Hollywood Racks Express 3 Bike Rack, part # HRE3 would indeed fit your 2011 Nissan Altima. If you'll be transporting women's bikes or bikes with sharply-angled top tubes, you might also consider a frame adapter bar like part # 64005. The bar spans the distance between the handlebar gooseneck and the seat post, which provides a secondary attachment point for the bike rack. This allows the bike to be carried level, which maximizes ground clearance.

  • Included Hardware and Fit of Curt Class I Trailer Hitch # C11264 on 2002 Nissan Altima
  • The Curt Class I hitch you referenced, part # C11264, is indeed a fit for a 2002 Nissan Altima. You'd need a 1-7/8 inch trailer ball, part # 19256 or a 2 inch ball, part # 19258. To wire your Altima for towing, use part # C59496. If you click the provided link, you can see the installation instructions, which shows the included hardware and the tools required for installation.

  • Would the Derale Transmission Cooler # D13503 Work on a 2006 Nissan Altima
  • The Derale Series 8000 Plate-Fin Transmission Cooler Kit w/Barb Inlets # D13503 is designed as a supplemental transmission cooler, but should work well as the only transmission cooler in your 2006 Nissan Altima with a 2.5 liter engine. This is a pretty heavy duty, efficient cooler that should have more than enough cooling capacity for your vehicle. Check out the installation video and FAQ articles I attached on transmission coolers also.

  • Will 2 Marlin 5 Trek Bikes Fit on the Hollywood Racks Destination Bike Platform Rack
  • You should have no issues fitting 2 Marlin 5 Trek bikes on the Hollywood Racks Destination 2 Bike Platform Rack # HLY94FR. This is because there are adjustments that can be made in the cradles and the mast section so that you can offset the bikes if necessary. So if you have them both centered and the pedals or handlebars are making contact you can move one or both so that they sit at slightly different angles. Attached is a review video for you to check out.

  • Higher Capacity Hitch for 2014 Nissan Altima to Accommodate Bike Rack and 2 Bikes
  • The only hitches offered for the Altima are Class I with a 200 lb tongue weight capacity. Since using an adapter lowers the TW capacity to the point where you can't carry both bikes, your only alternative would be to use a Class I compatible bike rack to eliminate the need for the adapter. I've linked you to our selection of Class I compatible platform-style bike racks. The Kuat NV 2.0 # NV12G is an excellent rack that's compatible with a Class I receiver. The rack can fold for storage...

  • Would the Draw-Tite part # 24796 fit on a 2011 Nissan Altima with Borla Exhaust
  • The Draw-Tite part # 24796 will not install on your 2011 Nissan Altima Coupe. It only fits the Sedan models. We do not currently(10/2023) have a hitch that will fit your coupe. We do, however, offer trunk mounted bike racks like the Thule Passage Trunk Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - Hanging Style # TH910XTor roof racks for your 2011 Nissan Altima coupe that would allow you to carry bikes or cargo if you are interested in those.
