Problem Solved-Thanks to all who answered my post

The vacuum trick worked! My wife (who couldn't wait for me - I sleep
later) got it on the second try. She first used one vacuum we had in
the house which did not have strong enough suction, and then a second
one. She said it took about 10 seconds.

Saved a lot of dough and, because of Nissan's deplorable engineering,
thankfully, didn't have to give them more business.

Again, thanks.
