    Well, that confirms it, got an ABS code of C0040, which is Right Front Speed Sensor... It comes back instantly on a code clear, so it is most certainly the front passenger wheel hub that is...

    Yeah, already talked to Gordie Boucher Nissan today, basically they have seen the sensors go bad and take out the ECM, rare, but it does happen. The new sensor design is supposed to keep the sensor...

    Oh, don't get me wrong, I appreciate the input...

    It doesn't make noise while running. It runs pretty smooth, thus I believe it is retarded more than advanced.
