Is it just my Pathy, or do all R50's automatically lock all the doors when the key is used to open the rear hatch window? What the hell's the point of that? I know Q's had a hatch release switch on the left of the dash, but is this a design flaw in R50's or something? :confused:

With mud 'a flingin' and 'a slingin'

Yep. a 22R/RERE prob. won't turn 7' wheels!

Yeah, def. a solid axle no steering components.

Now THIS is unique! Sounds interesing, can't wait to see pics!

Yep...like MZ said, clean the MAF. You said you recently noticed a loss of power, as well as recently having oiled the filter. You may have over-oiled it and gunked up the MAF. I'd def. try that one... Oh yeah, welcome!

Ok dumb question...what's VSS?

Holy cow haven't seen that in a while...I remember reading that way back when I forst got married! Too bad they stopped it

Sweet! Nice pics man...it's cool that your Pathy even went ahead and lit it's own SES candles, so you won't have to buy any! Looks good!

err, yeah, ehhem neither do I??? :X

I bet my wife would slap me stupid if I asked her to do this. (unless I use my Italian deception tactics, hmmmm.)

Don't bump into things J/K I have the same issue, I'm just at the point where it doesn't bother me anymore.

Welcome to NPORA! shouldn't this be moved to The Garage?

Maybe this is a dumb suggestion, but shouldn't you start w/ an oil change? Try using a 10W-30 or something? I dunno...I seemed to notice the same sounds your describing in my '02 when I used 5W-30, so I changed to 10W and haven't had an issue since.

Negative my friend, I've an '02 w/ LSD and certainly no VSC.

Scroll to "2002 Infiniti QX4 Handling" for brake system specs.

Indeed...I was not sure Q's came w/ disc's in the rear.

Really? I wasn't aware of that...thought about the only stability-aiding type features my R50 had were a LSD and ABS... :confused: As I said before and I'll say again...'02, best year evAr for Pathy's!

At least I have a cool roof rack that tells the WORLD I drive a Pathfinder How've you been man??

*Loosens noose around his neck* I beg to differ, my friend

Nahh didn't hate...it just fell apart on me. The '02's were incredibly trouble prone and the QR is NOT a strong moto(I say strong meaning internally) Pros? -Fast as hell the 02-03's had the best front ends...04+ swapped them for the bucktooth that plagues Nissan today :-) -6-spd, HLSD -most fun car ever to drive, handled like it was on rails, aspecially dropped 2 inches with some different treads... -TONS of tourque Cons? -Butterfly screws coming loose and being sucked into the cylinders...mine went at 59K, got an '05 engine upgrade though. This in itself isn't an issue if you do the butterfly screw upgrade which, if your around VA. i'd be happy to help you do. -ECM recall...apparently the foam insulation corrodes as the ECM heats up and the gas damages the circuitry...again mine did this 2 TIMESand the car was towed (again) -Throw-out bearings are crap...mine was going at 62K when I sold it -Strut bearings rattled themselves silly...cause they're made out of plastic, INCLUDING the bearings!! -The damn thing NEVER stayed alligned. Basically it fell apart on me and needed a good bit of work when sold. By far the most trouble-prone car i've owned (and I've owned SAAB's in my past!) Then again, I'm sure tracking it the few times I did wasn't any help. It DID run a 14.9 straight outta the box tho

2k2...best year evAr for Pathy's (though there's a bazillion people on here who will hang me now for sayin' that :-))

OMG that's horrible max...I couldn't afford that!

Oh wait, the Q's also have ultra cool Xenon neadlights as well, which are worth Id say about 10 h.p. over the Pathy

HA that's hillarious I'm with you man... BTW the other day I really wanted to listen to a Jack Johnson CD and of course, it was giving me a hard time. I smacked the hell out of the face of the HU and, low and behold, it hasn't given me an issue since! That was 2 days ago, a record for sure
