    Basically I was bought my car since 2006 March and right now was 3 years plus. It's was almost 60KM ride. Until right now is still good condition. Performance Car is Ok but for noise canceling is so so only. The maintainance price I thinks is quite expensive. If compare to Malaysia Proton, of course Nissan Sentra is much more better. What I can said is totally cannot compare. Fuel consumption I thinks is still save compare to 1.6A other brand car. Body kit is extremely solid as this car 5 star award given by Japanese Assiociation.

    very nice look. big enough for long distance driving. comfortable. but not fuel economy enough compare to toyota and honda. quality is like crap. i bought a 2nd n16 last month and i am really not satisfy with the quality of the car. the drawer is like crap. easily broken. the front brake got sound. the auto gear really not smooth. have to pull very hard to put in the gear.

    I'm happy we bought the car as it was worth for what we paid. Seems the fuel economy isn't that high. The ride comfort is good but not much as I expected it to be. Seems this is not designed for rugged use. But for day to day use. N16 is awesome as it's killing looks are loved by almost everybody.

    Stupid, dumb, dull and wimpy car. poor engine power, gears too tall, wimpy clutch, poor steering response, noisy front suspension,engine dampers too soft, too much body roll, poor handling, very poor slip differential, it does not accelerate even on down hill.

    Elegant looking, ok performance and smooth comfortable ride. The Nissan Sentra n16 is a great small car the major problem being the weak suspension, especially the big cradle bushins and the shocks.

    I had this car for more than a year and I am very pleased with it. Long distance travel in this car is very pleasant and the stiff body makes the drive very smooth. Fuel economy is very good considering the size of the car which is large.

    The throttle play takes some time to learn since it is controlled electronically. Once mastered, the car's power can be accessed easily although putting in aftermarket cotton filters will greatly speed up the release of the engine power.

    Bought my Nissan Sentra in 2001 - brand new. A bit over-priced at that time. Encountered noise from front left-side of car. Constantly sent to service centres in Ipoh and KL (based here at that time) but made no difference & was very frustrated having spent so much on the car & not having to enjoy its driving pleasure. Finally, wrote to Tan Chong on details and problem. Was referred to the service centre in Kuantan (currently based here). Kuantan centre made a huge difference and immediately rec ...

    I am the owner of the latest version (new backlight)Nissan Sentra 1.6A N16. I received my car on 17th April 2004 from EDARAN TAN CHONG SDN BHD SECTION 16 BRANCH.
    The salesman passed the car to me and said "This car has a problem, the front driveshaft bearing is making noise when you turn." Can you imagine what is my facial expression at that time? I am totally disappointed with NISSAN and not only TAN CHONG. How can they handover the new car with problem to their customer? I am actually sold o ...

    I'm having a brand new Nissan Sentra 1.6A (N-16). I received my new car at mid of August 2003. However, it's fan belt was broken after 2 weeks (i.e. at end of August) while driving along the KESAS Highway, Malaysia and my car was towwed to the Tan Chong EAS workshop for repair.

    I had heard that this Nissan Sentra N-16 model is having problems of jammed drum brake and also sensor malfunction problem causing the car to break down. Hope to hear some comments from other owners of the Nissan Sentr ...

    The Nissan Sentra 1.6A ( N-16 ) is certainly best in its class. Selling quite well in most Asian countries. Most important, its affordable.

    I am the owner of 2 brand new Nissan Sentra 1.6A ( N-16 ) in Malaysia. I am facing a lot of problem for the both car until today. I understand that Nissan's car is not as bad as what I mentioned here for those car fitted in japan or anywhere else but not in Malaysia ( Tan Chong ). I took a ride in my uncle's sentra which is exactly same to mine in singapore ( imported from japan ). That's totally perfect and nothing I can complain and make me feel ashame for my own Sentra. My first Sentra I boug ...
