Exclamation 1999 Nissan Maxima; Huge Problems!!

Alright all my Nissan family,

I'm in dire need of your help and advice. After 151,000 miles, my car is dying.

I was driving home from work today, when my car went from a nice, sweet, sports car sound, to sounding like a Subaru STI with a 3 inch cat back exhaust, and blue smoke billowing out from my 2.5 inch, Magnaflow cat back exhaust.

Every time I stopped at a light, the RPM's would dip to about 300 RPM and shoot back up to about 800 RPM's.

I have also lost power, engine response had gone down, and top-end power has suffered as well.

Please help! What could be wrong with my precious??

if blue smoke if coming out, that typically means your burning oil. check the oil level. Also is the check engine light on?

Is your check engine light on? If it is you might want to pull the codes and see where that leads you.
