[Removal Of Grille]

---solved---

those 4 plastic push-in clips are real puzzle.

took me couple of hours to figure out how to put it back:

first one need to insert them into the grill from the back side (head first, turn and push), after that push the whole grill assembly into it's plase/

silicon helps both in removal and installation

[Coolant Flush And No Heat]

I'm doing coolant change/flush ("lazy" way - drained from radiator, filled with water, drained it).

According to the manual 3.5 engine has 2 air relief plugs.

I looked everywhere and can't find the second one...

[Coolant Flush And No Heat]

Coolant change/flush procedure as per manual requires draining from the cylinder and water pump.

I read that it's PITA

I am about to do my first DIY flush and wondering if it's OK to do it simple way - drain from the radiator, flush with water couple of times, fill?

[Replacement seats]

I have never seen R50 in the junkjard

[Tire Pressure]

My sticker says 30 psi on all tires.

mine too.

(2002 4WD SE)

And I am sure manufacturer knows better.

Quite often when I get my truck to the mechanics shop they set pressure to 38 or 40psi.

I guess at this pressure the tire life is just 50% sop they can sell twice more tires

Thanks for the fast AND superhelpful response!!!

I thought that all Pathfinder Chilkoot edition gives are 4 stickers: back, right, left sides and 1 on the overhead sunglasses compartment.

Google says

"Chilkoot lacks the LE's skid and traction control technology, side-curtain and seat-mounted air bags, and power seats and other luxuries. But it comes with limited slip differential, a six-CD, 150-watt audio system, and, with the automatic transmission, the all-mode four-wheel-drive."

[Underbody protection]

Hi everybody,

I can't find a metal underbody protection covers instead of original plastic one and could use a good advice.

 

(((I use my 2002 Chilkoot for work in the field (Oil and Gas, Canada)

It's snow & ice covered roads, -30-40C, mostly 4WD.

And it's muddy at summer.)))

 

Thanks in advance
