  1. Cool. Using Mobil 1 is not a problem. But if i'm going to change the filter, wouldn't I have to change the oil? Once the filter comes off, the oil is going to spill all over the place, isn't it? The little bit of dribbling, I'm not so concerned. But I'm worried that all the oil will torrent out of the engine pan. I've never taken the filter off first so I don't know if it'll torrent out or not . Can we just change the filter alone?
  2. Is there such an oil that will allow you to run for 5000+ miles without an oil change. And are they gimmicks? or do they really protect that long?.
  3. OUCH! At least you weren't on the receiving end. I got T-boned like that (on the receiving end) once by someone running a red. I was hurting for a week and half. Sorry about the pathy. Now it's time to but on that winch bumper! MUUUAAAHAHAHAHAHA...
  4. Wow! Thanks for the info, precise1. I would've never guessed it, but it all makes sense. So do you guys really stock 2 kinds of bearing grease? It just seems to be a bit of a waste....
  5. That's what I thought. I saw this at Autozone and Murray's. I was wondering if it was the manufacturer trying to rip the general consumer off....
  6. Is there a difference between "disc brake wheel bearing grease" and "non-disc brake wheel bearing grease"? Yeah I know, one is meant to be used with disc brakes and the other for drums. But can I use the disc brake grease for the drum brakes? and vice-versa? Thanks
  7. I know what you mean. I had a 01 pathfinder and I've had the check engine light come on twice. The first time it came on was about 45K. A timing sensor went bad. ok, had it replaced. Then 5K later, it came on again! The problem? Same thing! THe other timing sensor went bad. :o Needless to say I was quite disappointed.

    Oil Pressure

    I'm curious...where is the oil pump and how do you change it out? I'm asking cuz my dad used to have an old dodge caravan and the oil pump light would intermittently turn on. You wait a few minutes, and everything would be fine again. :confused:
  9. I'm wondering if it is something as simple as repacking or replacing your wheel bearings... I have a feeling there was an earlier post about this and you might've looked at your bearing already. Or I could be wrong all together.
  10. WOW! 20MPG on a pathy? amazing! Yeah. I'm definitely going to hang around here, it's a great place to learn about cars.
  11. wait a minute...is it wobbling while going on a straightway at 40-55MPH? or do you experience this while turning?
  12. Just wait a bit longer...if gas prices continue to go up, it might get even cheaper :o
  13. It has finally done it. Gas prices has finally snapped me and I just traded in my pathfinder for a corolla . The price of gas has gotten so high that it has gotten REALLY painful just to drive near a gas station. So I went from guzzler to sipper. Anyone else broken because of the price of gas? Damn! I loved that pathfinder too. It was so much fun to drive especially in the winter time. Ah well...time to move on. ONE DAY...I'll get another pathfinder. Until then, I hope you guys won't mind a Corolla driver ex-pathfinder owner hanging around here.
  14. I have run into this crossroad last time when gas was spiking over $2.25. I decided to bite the bullet and kept the pathy. Now that gas in Chicago is over $3, I have to reconsider again. I am sad to say that I must now let my pathy go Tomorrow I will be trading my pathy in for possibly a Toyota Corolla or a Mazda 3(from a guzzler to a sipper). I really loved my pathfinder. But damn it!, gas is so expensive now. :sniff: I don't do any offroading or backtrailing so that won't be missed. But being able to trudge through over 12" of snow was AWESOME!! *sigh*...the pathfinder was such a fun car to drive :sniff: I'll miss it for sure.
  15. Awesome! Are these DIY jobs? What should I look for when choosing new suspension parts? How much is all this going to set me back?!? :confused:
