  1. I had a problem where mine was taking too long for the oil pressure to come up. I was running a napa gold filter...I switched to the cheapest one I could find (fram orange can of death) and surprisingly the problem went away. Either I had a defective filter or they limit flow I don't know. Now I use either oem or purolator. This is not my opinion, I am just sharing my experience.
  2. It's called canada and we deal with the cold here although -49 is rare we do see -40 a few times a year where I am. I agree, check the cylinder head temp sensor.
  3. That 2nd radiator is your A/C condenser.
  4. Mine used to do that, except it wouldn't die. When I checked the codes I got an injector code. Check the codes because even if the CEL is off now the code will still be saved in the ECU.
  5. I recall reading about an upgraded transmission controller to fix this shift flare problem. The transmission is actually the same as the one in the xterra, but the bell housing is different to match the vq35.
  6. Do you ever wonder why you see those early to mid 90's chevy trucks that all seem to have the ass end in the air? They have extra leaf springs so you can have more payload aka weight capacity. Do you even know what payload is?
  7. Someone probably ran it low on oil at some point in it's life.
  8. I'd want one but I want to retain the spot for the tweeter.
  9. fskc that I don't want my paint rubbing off starting rust issues.
  10. Take this with a grain of salt. The body lift will not decrease your payload at all. It will also not affect your gas mileage, I drove my 3" body lifted pathfinder to the other side of the continent and back and still averaged 23mpg like I did when it was stock. I haul stuff all the time with mine, I have a 3" suspension lift now as well and if you think that you can still rocket around corners like it was stock, well you're an idiot. It still tows great, although with the 33 inch tires it will downshift a lot more. If anything my payload has increased due to the higher spring rate of the lift coil springs.
  11. Mine had a hole in it and every time it rained the bulb would explode lol.
  12. This is basically the "code" for when your alternator isn't charging. I would tighten up that belt or replace it if it is old/glazed.
  13. Man that is completely different from the pathfinder one especially at the back. Too much work for me lol.
  14. Good, Sony, and head unit, take Sony out of that sentence and you have a good solution.
  15. www.rockauto.com They have a good selection of brands and in the vendors section is a code for a 5% discount .
  16. My dad has a brand new xterra and honestly I think it sucks. He even isn't very impressed with it. Things feel cheap, its loud, seats are very uncomfortable especially the back they don't even recline like the pathy ones do, and it rides worse than my 6" lifted wd21 yet it sags with anything more than groceries in the cargo area. I can see why they are selling poorly. I also can't stand the traction control that you can't turn off unless you're in 4 low.
  17. That is wierd steve, shows one that fits a 2000 r50. I thought the rad was the same regardless of motor.
  18. Wrong, they self adjust when you use the parking brake. Says so in the manual.
  19. You probably put the tranny in failsafe mode. I've done that a couple of times while spinning.
  20. You can get one of those sweet funnels at princess auto since I see you are in canada. http://www.princessauto.com/pal/product/8225880/Funnels/pans/Spill-Free%22-Funnel
  21. Actually the hubs will lock if you put into 4wd while stuck, you just have to be gentle on the skinny pedal and you will here a soft thunk followed by no longer being stuck sounds like the brake plates are worn on your hubs. you can replace them with a good used set and be good to go.
  22. Throw a new belt on it first and see how it runs. That will let you know. Sometimes you get lucky.
