That's been happening when I click on some links other members have posted in the forum. Very annoying. I don't want a ****ing Juke, Nissan.

Which shortcut? Nothing like that ever happens on the forum for me. Some posted links might do it, but that's because they website they link to is doing it, not the forum.

Are you possibly referring to your browser bookmarks or a desktop shortcut? If so, it's probably whatever adware you have on your computer.

Change your shortcut to point to "http://www.the370z.com"

I should have said "bookmarks" and just now as I tried to quote you I get...you're being redirected....

SouthArk370Z · 06-22-2019, 11:27 AM

What is the URL that the bookmark points to?

I don't get a redirect when I use that URL.

Check for any browser add-ons that you didn't install. Run a virus/malware scan on your system.

What's wrong with the Juke? It's a decent 2nd car for winter months...

I get it, I get either like or hate for my Juke, it's not just a "meh" car.

going off topic, did you know how much at 30k milers the CVT oil change will cost you on your Juke...I will never buy a car with a CVT transmission ever or even an auto...unless you're one of the few ones that got a standard...YouTube it and save money

I service it myself, not a big deal really.

I know but it's only replacing 5 out of 10 QT's...the dealer says they have to drop the tranny to drain all 10 qts....

NISMO IX · 06-22-2019, 05:31 PM

And the two separate cvt filters, etc. I know. I still service it myself. I only put 6,000 miles a year on it. 2014 with only 27,000 miles. Every 15,000 I dump, change filters and fill. Not looking to turn it into a rally car or anything. Only the brakes are slightly upgraded. It is my point A to B car/grocery getter.

Yes this thread got derailed.

Edit: I do agree however, would've bought the manual if they offered the AWD with it.

More than likely, you've got some adware or other software that has hijacked your computer. Probably just ad stuff, but it could be more serious if you are experiencing slower than usual performance from your machine.
