In a 2005 Nissan Murano, the vehicle speed sensor (VSS) is located near the tail shaft at the right rear of the transmission. To access it, you can use a 1/4" ratchet with a 4" extension to remove the 10mm bolts. You'll either need to jack up the car or use car ramps for easier access, ensuring the vehicle is on a flat surface. The typical cost for a mechanic to replace this part ranges from $270 to $360, covering both the part and labor. When the VSS is failing, the check engine light will usually illuminate, triggering common fault codes such as P0720, P0703, P0717, P0730, or P0740 when scanned. Signs that the speed sensor is failing in the Murano may include non-functional cruise control, rough shifting, and unusual noises from the engine area when shifting into reverse or drive.
