Default 06 Nissan Maxima randomly wont start 😕

Nissan Maxima randomly wont start, no noise lights radio dash all work perfectly. Got new starter and Battery, Alternator tested good. Idk what it could be this happens daily and eventually it starts after 20-30 mins sumtimes must wait 45 mins b4 it start. Also notice P (parking) and N (Neutral) not shown on dash when it wont start. Mechanics cant fix cuz problem doesnt happen while Im at the shop so they can check it out. Any advice???

Sounds like a classic symptom of a failed/failing camshaft sensor. So have your mechanic test both sensors (bank 1, bank 2).

Does the engine crank and not start or does it not crank/not start. If it doesn't crank, then it's not a cam pos or crank pos sensor. The lack of "P" or "N" on the dash would made me inclined to think it's a PNP switch problem. I'm not sure on the Maxima, but on my '06 Pathfinder it's part of the transmission valve body assembly and not available separately. I would check in our "knowledge base" section to see if there are any applicable TSB's and, if not, download a factory service manual and do the appropriate diagnostics for your symptom.
