I have a 2005 Altima 3.5SL. Recently I have begun to hear a water sloshing
sound coming from the right hand side of the vehicle. Seems to happen only
when the car is cold. I've googled this and come up with some
possibilities. Anyone else run across this and had a correct diagnosis and
repair?

Thanks!

I have an 04 Altima and have the same issue. I told Nissan about it and
they said it's normal. I don't believe it. I had the car for a year before
I heard the noise and Nissan won't do anything about it unless there is a
recall or something like that. I posted on here about a year or so ago and
got nothing. Good luck.

As a followup I had it in for normal servicing last week and mentioned
the problem. They diagnosed it as air in the cooling system. The
reservoir was dry (??) and it had apparently sucked in some air
(pressure testing it showed no leaking). They refilled it and told me
the sound should go away in a few days as it bleeds itself out. Sure
enough 2 days later no water sloshing/whooshing sound.

Its the gas in the tank....hello?
