I don't know if the tint is affecting those systems. The heat in the car, however, may also be affecting the electronics. I've had no problems parking in the sun and I live in the so cal as you do. I also just noticed our cars are also different model years so that may also be a factor.

 

i don't think the engineers at nissan would've allowed such a thing as window tint to interfere with any electronics...these guys are professionals and don't overlook such things

 

I would have to agree with ugaexploder Im running Lumar metallic 5% in back and 10% in front and I have no issues with wireless reception. Nav,Cell, wifi to pda on a campus network.

 

i got huper optik ceramic...no ill effects on the nav, xm, or standard radio.

 

i have metallic tint as well.. no problems

 

I have the Huper Optik ceramic tint on all my windows including the front windshield and I have 0 issues with any of my electronics/music/gps...

 

Could be terrycs . but I've tested some things on my end to rule out the tint possibilities, and even took the car to the dealer thinking it was the keyless entry receiver/electronics. Tint is indeed affecting the car's reception in many fronts from navigation to keyless entry. All 5 windows have a tint, reason for signal interference.

Again, to reiterate, when the car is on the road on super hot days 91º+ (We are talking San Fernando Valley summer digits here) and I drive for a good 30 minutes in extreme heat with LA traffic, the navigation information is affected and errors out. Keyless entry acts up once I park.

I highly doubt its the BCM causing this or other electronic malfunction, since it only started AFTER the tint.

Will repost in a few weeks once I change my tint to Formula One Classic Series or Pinnacle Series.

 

Hitman,

Wow, there haven't been any reported problem with metallic tint on an 07 sedan. Not sure about 2006 though.

I think it maybe a good idea to let the dealer check it out first if this is reproduce-able. It should be free of charge. I'm just suggesting this because I'd hate for you to pay for tint install/removal/re-install to find it didn't make a difference. (EDIT: sorry, just noticed you already took it to the dealer).

Let us know how it goes.

 

how much did the tint cost you?

 

Just following up to see which tint you went with, and whether or not your electronics situation seems to have improved....

 

maybe something else? coz the sensor for the keyless if from the outside is on the handles...and unless u tint your windshield.. which u may or may not have didnt look at your sig, you shouldnt have issues. the antenna if in instrument panel area can only possibly get signal from the windshield n not elsewhere.
