i have a few vibration issues.......

1. when stoped or in park, the rpms seem a little
low(500-600) and the truck vibrates enough that i would
say its not normal

2. when im doing about 60km and i ease into the gas to
try and speed up or even keep the same speed the truck
has a nasty vibration all the way up to 80km or i have to
press the gas much more and make it down shift to get rid
of the vibration... anyone else with this issue?

also just recently when braking it feels like i am
driving a standard car.... i feel the tranny gearing down
and pushing me forward... i have to brake harder now to
stop!!!

Please state model, year, engine, running gear and mileage. Have you checked the air filter... If it's not clean install the correct Nissan filter for best results! The MAFS Might need to be cleaned. Is this problem in cold weather only? Have any codes been shown?

Hope we can figure it out so you can fix it.... Don S..

Sounds like you are due for a throttle cleaning, self learn
control re-learn, Idle Air volume relearn and possible
clean and tighten the grounds. Other vibration sounds like
a u-joint or two. I believe there are different modes for
the engine braking calibration, see your dealer.
