2024 NISSAN SENTRA SV XTRONIC CVT VIN 3N1AB8CV4RY360379

This Nissan Sentra SV Xtronic CVT was built in 2024. Power comes from a 2.0-litre petrol engine with four cylinders, rated at 149 hp. The drivetrain combines a CVT gearbox with front-wheel drive. The specification is taken from the source data.

The car was recorded with 74,966 miles on the clock. The instruments count in miles; the same distance in kilometres is about 1.6 times the figure. High mileage alone does not rule a car out; what matters is whether regular servicing kept pace with it. A later figure lower than an earlier one points to a replaced instrument cluster or an odometer that has been wound back. Older figures usually turn up on service invoices, inspection reports and past title paperwork.

The record lists rear-end damage as the main problem on this car. Whether the damage has been repaired since, and how well, is not something a damage entry can show. Some damage shows its consequences only later: corroded connectors and electrical faults can surface months afterwards.

At the time of recording, the car ran and drove. A key was noted with the car. Condition notes are a snapshot: the car may have been worked on, stripped of parts or left standing since.

According to the source data, the car has a salvage title. At some point in its life, the car was declared a total loss. The structure and the quality of any work done deserve a thorough inspection on a car with a branded title, however sound the car looks.

Registrations, changes of owner, inspection results and accident claims together make up what is called a car’s history. A car’s past rarely shows on the paintwork: a well-repaired accident or water damage that was dried out is easy to miss.

An engine that has had its oil changed on time is far less likely to cause trouble later, and workshop invoices are the proof. Many modern petrol engines are turbocharged and direct-injected; where they are, the turbocharger and injectors belong on a specialist’s checklist. The CVT gearbox needs its fluid changed at the manufacturer’s intervals, and invoices should show that it was.

The VIN is a 17-character code assigned at the factory: it identifies the manufacturer, the model and its variant, and ends with a serial number unique to the car. The VIN 3N1AB8CV4RY360379 belongs to this 2024 Nissan Sentra SV Xtronic CVT. The VIN usually appears at the base of the windscreen, on a door pillar and stamped into the body, and all of them should match the documents.

Where entries exist, a VIN check can show changes of owner, past mileage readings, reported damage and whether the car is listed as stolen. A repair paid for in cash at a small workshop leaves no trace in any database, so no report can list it. A VIN check and a physical inspection answer different questions: the first says what happened to the car, the second what condition it is in now. Look up the history of VIN 3N1AB8CV4RY360379 first, and let what it shows guide the inspection.
