Well, I went to my dealer to get the 7500 mile oil change/tire rotation. I asked the dealer about my exhaust tips, which are rusted and look like they are 15 years old, so they were ordered, covered under warranty. I also asked him about the smell, says that at Nissan put out a bulletin to the service centers letting them know that due to the sulfur content in the gasoline, the ECU on the car has to be reprogrammed, a 1.5-2hour job. I told the guy I'd have it done when I take it back in to get my exhaust tips changed. Just thought I would let you guys know that, I know I haven't been round much lately. Also, he says the smell WILL NOT go away, but will reduct considerably.. so oh well.

Did they say this affected all 2000-2001 Nissan Sentra SE's. I know this is a problem for many people on this board. I would also liked to get it fixed, I just want to know for sure. Thanks for the insight.

i got it done. It helped....kinda. It dosen't come as often and when it does it isn't that bad. Who knows how long that will last. But it did something.

At last! A solution for the infamous fart smell. I'm tired of my girlfriend asking me if I farted after a long drive...

Does this cure the smelly AC too?

No sulfer smell on my GXE...only burnt oil smell after oil change which goes away after a few days.

Nah man. The fart smell is just from driving. The AC just makes it worse. It really IS like a fart. Everyone notices it but me...
