I've ignored the knock sensor code for years...

After I had some body work done, the shop didn't replace sensor near the radiator, and the heater exhibited similar symptoms.

Not directly related, but I just put a Clarion CX609 in my 97 SE that had the stock Bose system. $250 delivered from Crutchfield with the harnesses, gain adjustments and antenna connects. Spent the morning soldering leads and about 5 minutes installing... I'd upgrade.

I also used a sawzall to cut the sleeves after using a drill to get the bolt collar out. Had to use an angle grinder to get the bolts out of the frame. A nasty job, but well worth it in the end. Also had to use a tow strap on the axle, pulling it with my car, to align the bolt holes to reinstall the arms.

My Bose system is crapping out, and I'd like better iPod integration than a cassette adapter. The Bluetooth integration is a nice feature too. All for $250. Looking at a Clarion CX609 - http://www.clarion.com/us/en/products/2009...2409026879.html Any thoughts?

Just went through this with help from the board and found great success See http://www.nissanpathfinders.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=23441

Thanks - just ordered. So the OEM bolts are 14mm?

Thanks to all that replied - very helpful. I have installed two AC camber bolts, one each side. Where's the best place to get two more, and is there any difference between bolts available from different suppliers? Thanks again!

Two. Okay, I think I get it - they install in the two lower holes on the strut and have a smaller diameter to give more play in alligning the strut. Is that correct? So two on each side give you maximum opportunity to angle.

I've installed the 2" AC springs and KYB-GR2 struts on my 97 Pathy. I had a shop install the AC camber adjustment bolts and set the alignment. The shop told me the bolts helped but that the alignment was still a little off. With the naked eye, you can see they still come in a little. \--/ Looking at the suspension, it's not clear to me where the bolts are installed, or if there's anything that I can do until the springs settle a little. Where are the bolts installed? Is it possible to get a good alignment when the springs are new? Is there anything I can do to get a better alignment before I get new tires? Thanks all for the support as I've gone through this project.

They got me the right sleeve today, so I'm cool with them. S*** happens sometimes.

That's not the problem now - I can't reinstall the arms 'cause I have the wrong size bushing sleeve. I finally got all the bolts out - I just can't reinstall the arm cause the bolts don't fit the sleeve.

Frackin' AC sent me a bushing sleeve that's the wrong diameter. I've got all but one bolt to go on my second LCA and am dead in the water.... WTF!

Got one side done - had to grind dow one side - sawzall the other. Will do the other this weekend. This sucks - will be glad when it's done and will never have to do it again. When using the grinder I scraped the hanger - I assume I'll need to paint that to keep the potential for rust lower. Looking forward to no death wobble.
