2007 Nissan Altima Service and Repair Manual
This factory service and repair manual for the 2007 Nissan Altima is built around this exact model year, so the torque values, wiring diagrams, and diagnostic steps inside are the ones Nissan published for the 2.5L four-cylinder (QR25DE), the 3.5L V6 (VQ35DE), and the hybrid variant rather than a generic Altima-era approximation.

Known issues on the 2007 Altima. Three recalls are on federal record for this model year. The first involves vehicles that had the body control module replaced at a dealership: a service software issue could inadvertently deactivate the tire pressure monitoring system, so the driver would get no warning of low tire pressure. The second covers the Continental occupant classification system control unit in the passenger seat cushion, where an out-of-spec varistor could interrupt the signal to the air bag control unit, suppressing the passenger air bag and reducing crash protection. The third covers the engine air filter housing, where a sufficiently hot object entering through the fresh air intake could ignite the filter material and start a fire. Owners have filed 498 complaints for the year, and no technical service bulletins are logged. The factory diagnostic and repair procedures behind each of those systems are here.
From a TPMS or occupant-classification diagnosis to an air intake inspection or routine service work, it keeps you on the OEM procedure and the correct specification for your specific 2007 Altima.
ON CERTAIN PASSENGER VEHICLES THAT HAVE HAD THE BODY CONTROL MODULE (BCM) REPLACED DURING SERVICE AT A DEALERSHIP, THE TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS) MAY HAVE BEEN INADVERTENTLY DEACTIVATED DUE TO AN ISSUE WITH THE DEALER SERVICE SOFTWARE.
DRIVING ON UNDER-INFLATED TIRES IS UNSAFE AND COULD RESULT IN A CRASH.
DEALERS WILL CHECK THE TPMS FUNCTION AND REACTIVATE IT IF NECESSARY. THE RECALL BEGAN ON JANUARY 18, 2008. OWNERS MAY CONTACT NISSAN AT 1-800-647-7261.
