Bought the 00 Altima off Craigslist with 33k original miles. Around 50k when I had the car in drive and would come to a stop, whether it was a stop sign or red light, my engine would sputter almost like it was going to stall. It never did but I knew it wasn't normal. Changed the spark plugs but it didn't help. Took it to a local garage that had been in a partnership with Ken Pollock Nissan. They quickly determined it was a gasket that needed to be replaced. They said the part was inexpensive but the labor was costly because it was located under the engine. Paid around $500 and haven't had a problem since. I have put about 10k more miles on the car since with no problems.
