No oil pressure at all in Nissan ALtima SE-R?

By Yahoo: at Yahoo!Answers.com

I have a 2005 SE-R with about 118k miles on it. I changed the spark plugs today and when I started it back up, the oil pressure light came on, along with the CEL. It runs really rough and the oil pressure gauge sits at zero, no matter what the RPM. I'm sure it has to... Read More

  • Both the brake booster and PVC get vacuum from the intake plenum one of those hoses left off? I agree not to run engine long until you know if there is pressure or not. Looking in the oil cap start the motor if you don't see oil around the cam shaft turn it off... Read More
  • ok, if car works normally before you change only plugs, there should not be anything with oil pressure. rough run is probably some kind assembly problem with sparkplug wires, sometimes they are not right places, even looks ok, and oil pressure sensor wire is somehow... Read More
  • First thing is to NOT START IT, check the oil level just in case, but it could be a faulty oil pressure switch but until you know for sure, don't start it because you could severely damage the engine. EDIT: If your not doing anything now, go and check the oil... Read More
  • Looks like something got unplugged. The other possibility is you are having a bad luck day and the oil pump went bad.

Why should I also consider these?

There's really something for everyone in the thickly populated field of mid-size sedans, but you have to examine your priorities.

The Ford Fusion is one of the sportier-driving mid-size sedans and has great handling; it's also well-built and offers impressive fuel economy in four-cylinder form.

What's more, its Hybrid version is offered in all 50 states and boasts 41 mpg on the highway.

Most shoppers in this class place some prominence on interior space, and for that the best vehicles are the Accord, Sonata, Opima, and Camry.

The freshly redesigned Hyundai Sonata and Kia Optima are standouts in this class, with roomy interiors, impressive refinement, and excellent fuel economy.

But the Camry's interior is a bit bland and feels cheap in execution.

For safety, the Accord stands on top (it's an IIHS Top Safety Pick).

However, against any of these models, the Altima comes across as well rounded and sporty.

Versus the Nissan Altima Coupe, the only formidable rival is the Honda Accord Coupe; comparing the two, the Accord Coupe feels less sporty—it's more of a luxurious freeway cruiser, while the Altima Coupe is a little more cramped and less refined, but friskier-feeling.

 
2011 Ford Fusion
The 2011 Ford Fusion comes in a few finely developed flavors; Sport, Hybrid and base are a few of the best tastes.
 
2011 Honda Accord Sedan
Though the 2011 Honda Accord is missing Bluetooth connectivity on the more affordable trims, it’s a very compelling package otherwise, with top-notch refinement, performance, and comfort.
 
2011 Hyundai Sonata
The 2011 Hyundai Sonata takes some smart styling and performance risks to raise its profile.
 
2011 Kia Optima
Kia simply gets it; basic doesn't have to be boring, and the 2011 Kia Optima shows that mid-size sedan shoppers don't have to settle to design boredom or a lack of features.
 
2011 Toyota Camry
The 2011 Toyota Camry isn’t at the leading edge in any way, but it remains one of the smartest mid-size sedan picks.
