All about Nissan Serena [merged]

Hi everyone. I bought a 2003 limited QRvr model and ever since I did a lot of troubles came to it. I had it overhauled and it stayed for 3 months in the shop for lack of available parts. When it was done, I sent it back after a few days for oil leaks, then atf leak, then aircon compressor noise, and now after 2 days without noise the tranny slipped. Call it like when it rains it pours!, but my worry now is I was told, not by the tranny shop but by another to just buy surplus tranny instead of overhauling it coz most would have trouble after. Please send advice, guys. I'm really at my wit's end here. Thanks a lot in advance.

Good day mga sir, we're planning to buy a nissan serena after reading this thread, mukang maganda talaga ang serena, good family van nga sabi nyo and comfortable talaga. Sad to say nga lang na di namin kaya bumili ng brand new, i'm located at olongapo city and we're planning to buy an imported one sa subic, but these car are from cagayan binabagsak and binebenta lang din dito. Ang budget po namin is only P250k. Ang price po dito is P300k ang asking neg naman po.

-tanong ko lang po - if ok lang bumili dito? Thanks po mga sir

i too have my own serene 2003 QRVR - city driving nasa 4~4.5 km per liter... pero ok ang ride. I changed a lot of parts na kasi kaya hindi na sabay sabay nasisira - i have replaced alternator, radiator, fan, cover gasket, belts, brakes, power door mechanisms... bypassed also the radiator hoses... etc

I noticed that most of the setenas here are 02 models. Can someone post the year models, different variants, engine and features? Tnx

There is no other real new model brought to the Phil shores. Just facelifted variants from 2.0L to a 2.5L engine. And Trim is
either A/T or M/T.

Meron kaming nissan serena 2003 qrvr limited edition, Ok siya tulad din nang ibang sasakyan marami din sira pera Ok siya para sa akin, ang may problima yata ay ang 2002 model. Maraming parts yan madali ka lang makakita kung marami kang kakilala, sinasabi lang ng iba na walang parts para magpa order ka, maraming mambobola o walang alam kung saan maghanap ng parts.

Good afternoon po! pag nag palit b ako ng head unit ng serena ko ay mggamit ko p din ung mga volume button s likod?

^Nope. Unless you buy a wired remote interface module.

Nice to see that this thread still exist! May mga bagay at information na sadyang TUMATAGAL!!! Good day po. Two months ago i had a problem with my serena, while driving without AC and upon shifting to park to rest my foot, the egine died after 5 seconds. At first it was having low idle when in Park, after a week each time i drive and not using AC the engine dies down but when AC is turned on, only the low idle is present. Does anyone know how to fix this or can you refer me to a technican who might diagnose and repair my serena?
Nice to know din na dumadami users ng Serena and I myself will testify sa comfortability ng ride especially sa long ones with families and children.
