It's looks like a 45 bux part. It looks even more difficult to put on. After looking at it and thinking that hitting it would be cheaper, I hit it about three times before it started working. Just like a starter.
-
3.5, you have to take off the intake plenum. Just did mine about three weeks ago. Two months before I did the other five plugs.
-
Had to rap it with a hammer. It's working now.
-
Won't move backwards or forwards. Appears to be using juice, will move up and down. Does this have anything to do with the power seat memory?
Can't find anything about the motor on the internet.
2001 Pathfinder with about 107k miles.
-
Got five out and the one below the throttle body is being a PITA.
Do I have to take off the intake manifold cover or what?
Now have a 01 Pathfinder SE with about 98k miles, bought for 7,500 with leather and sunroof to go along with my 87 Pathfinder 4x4 SE with 234k miles.
-
I did. The only thing I seen that looked problematic was that shift boot next to the auto tranny.
I wished I could read that big manual better. Don't know what they are showing on those graphs.
All I know the engine seems louder and takes longer to shift or just doesn't shift as smooth as it used to. A belt is making a squeeling sound at about 55 or 45 until it shifts into third.
-
Linkage adjustment. Maybe. Seems like I am going higher and higher to get it to shift from second to third. Does it at about 3400 rpm and I can't remember the speed maybe 35 mph.
It looks like the boot next to the transmission is toast. Looks like the linkage adjuster.
I also think there might be a problem in the vacuum hoses or something...just don't know. Automatic transmissions is like alien technology to me.
-
Looks like the adjuster to the altenator was completely off. Never put the fan shroud back on. Doesn't seem much better after I added the belt.
-
Yeah, timing belt.
-
Haven't checked. It wasn't the large AC belt though it was the smaller one below it, the altenator belt. I wasn't driving it when it happened but I am told that the earlier problem and loudness went away. No way for me to check until I get a belt on there.
These belts are less than six months old. About three months ago I got the drive belt replaced.
Looks like I lost some coolant too because the belt wasn't operating the fan so some of the coolant must of boiled off.
-
The AC belt just broke and the one below that just came off. So that is part of the problem.
-
It's the relay in the engine compartment passenger side I believe. Take one from another bank that won't be used and replace the bad one. Should start. Then go buy one.
-
13 mpg and about 220 miles but probably go another 15 miles. Now with it acting up I really don't know.
-
Looks like it is leaking a little bit of transmission fluid. Checked it and it appears full. Maybe if I add just a little bit.
-
Don't know what it is. Maybe I will take it to someone tomorrow. Just replaced the pcv valve. I figure it has something to do with vacuum or something.
Just had the drive belt replaced a few months ago.
Seems like it is running in a lower gear, can't figure it out.
-
Fluid is fine. Don't think it's the automatic shifter button. Just feels like the engine is under load. Seems like it is taking longer to shift.
-
High rpm shifts. Think I almost went redline.
-
Something is amiss. Either I am having a hard time to shift or the engine is running hard. Can't figure it out. Any suggestions?
-
No. I wouldn't buy it.
-
It's lowered up front so it will look slightly jacked in the back. Sort of hotrod style. I have seen other pathfinders and none look as sweet. However those Infiniti's sure look good.
-
Yeah, well my wife is the main driver of the 4x4 and it's lowered in the front. The running board looks cool. Maybe she uses it. I have taken off the brush and bumper guard to save weight. Florida has to be the worst state for off road. Really would like to find new running boards.
-
No mountains or rocks around here so I rarely go off road. I have some from California. Ultra-boards but I can't find them on the internet. Any recommendations? :help:
-
Why was he selling it? I would rather have one on mine.
-
I replaced the rear wiper motor with an eight dollar one from Wal-mart.
Exhaust manifold tick on start up.
Biggest problem now is high idle upon start up. Goes up to 2200 rpms and goes down very gradually. The idle screw is missing a spring or something.
Biggest problem I had was a hole or a crack developed in the front of the transmission near the bottom part of the engine. Had to take the whole thing off and get it welded back into shape.
With the exception of the idle upon start and transmission it is doing good for 230k miles.
How silly would it be.....

The Pathfinder is more practical. The VW would get better gas. I still have my 87 with 250k miles and it will go twice that easy. It's been low oil and low everything. Things bulletproof. I am not likely to speed or get tickets in it either. Oh, and it's a 4x4, which rocks.
