It does not happen on turns at all. Only when I stop and begin to accelerate especially uphill. However, I have 90,000 km not 90,000 miles.

Hi, Did you determine what the problem is? I am having the same issue. Some sort of clicking almost like something is stuck in the fan. When I accelerate it goes away or when I take my foot off the gas it goes away. Mostly makes the noise when I very lightly have my foot on the gas. I have a 2007 Murano with 60k miles. Thanks for any response!

Have you guys figure out what the issue was? My 05 Murano just started doing the same thing.

Hello,

It sounds like one of your engine's spark plugs is loose. Please check the tightness of each one. I would be good if you could do a video of the noise and post it on Youtube that give us the link so we can see what you are talking about exactly.

Please let us know what happens.

Cheers, Ken

Followed your suggestion and replaced all 6 spark plugs. Noise is still there.

Noises are tough to fix without hearing it. Can you take a video and upload it and then send us the link?
