Very good suggestions by hoza.2 I'd like to add these particulars about the G20: It has a timing chain. No maintenance required. Changing the tranny fluid is very easy, just like an oil change without the filter. Open the tranny drain bolt, drop the old fluid. Close the drain bolt. refill with fresh new fluid through the dipstick opening with the same amount of fluid you just removed. Done. Depending on what type of anti-freeze was used in the car before, you might be coming close to the water pump failing. If so, when you replace the water pump make sure to use low or non-silicant anti-freeze, NOT the domestic brands like Prestone. Stick to japanese anti-freezes, like the OEM Nissan anti-freeze. Hope this helps CD
