Hi,

I am looking into buying a 2001 maxima, with 81K miles.
I currently own a 97 Audi A4.

I love my Audi, great car. However, timing belt and water pump will cost around $600, and I need to replace two control arms, which cost around $250. It's a headache!

I don't have much experience with Nissan's, and I was wondering if you guys can let me know what's the most common breakdowns that could happen at that mileage, like, when do I need to change the timing belt, or water pump? Or any problems, from your experience, that might occur.

Thanks.
