They still read the same codes as usual.. im beginning to think i dont know how to read them..or something. Because i can check them from the ECU..then check them from a scan tool (wont have access to one until monday) and they be TOTALLY different..such as my ECU will read Idle Switch Fuel injector leak Fuel injector Circuit MAF sensor Knock Sensor And the scan tool will read Vehicle Speed Sensor I understand the speed sensor issue..i believe it more, as it was down to the only time i had a CEL problem was when my Speed sensor would malfunction somewhere in the cruise control, and not let it work until the CEL went away. NOW since i installed my CAI my CEL is on and off constantly, and i know its not my speed sensor, as i can still use cruise control until the CEL comes back on for the VSS. It's a big confusing mess but..i dont get how im not reading codes right... Thanks!

Alright, so i finally got a Cold Air Intake for pathy! and i like the improvement in MPG's and power. BUT. I'm getting CEL problems.. Mainly when im coasting.. It'll be on and off through out the whole trip.. I have a video of it..which will help describe most of my problem.. Any ideas? Thanks! I turn it off right as i turn home...and it came back on..youll see it towards the end of the video.. http://s208.photobucket.com/albums/bb9/Nismo_Nissan_350Z/?action=view¤t=a0275f39.mp4

Hmm..engine light goes on and off a lot while driving since the cold air intake..
-
Yeah, it was the cheapest way I could think of doing it! Under the CAI is the old bracket for the old air box..it holds the CAI up and keeps it from bouncing around! Oh yeah, definite power boost..you notice it more on hills, it no longer struggles and has to shift down going up hills, (I drive to try to keep it from shifting down) it actually holds its speed up hills and can increase speed if needed, without downshifting! I can say it has helped there. It sounds really cool too at higher RPM's! I went from averaging 18-19mpg to 20-21 (but only judged that on two tanks) so..it made a little difference there, but anything helps!

Cold air intake! and yes..that IS two MAF sensors... New Pathfinder stickers! (Thanks to fluerys!) Now to get my wheel bearings and timing belt done...
-
Cold air intake? Done. Nissan and Pathfinder stickers? Done. Oil change? Done.

True, the rear handles on the A-pillars is a 'Pathy thing'
-
WD21's are under appreciated!
-
So..instead of wiring in a resistor..couldnt i just wire in a regular bulb and hide it? or..no?
-
WOW. Thanks for that VERY useful information! Now i know what to look \for when buying LED's instead of just looking at the connector and guessing..hah. Thanks!
-
OK. So. I bought LED's for my corner lights.. that was a fail. Apparently it takes small bulbs, i was expecting the size of a normal reverse light or turn signal bulb. OK i can deal with that. So my brake/tail light combo LED bulb.. It has the two prongs on the bottom (of course lo for tail, hi for brake.) And..i plug it in..and.. it works! I hit the brake..no change in brightness at all.. Any ideas?? Thanks! I also put my bulb i planned for my corner light in my rear blinker and it started hyper blinking (as expected) Thanks! Also if anyone has ideas on what i could do with these, give them by all means! The corner light ones are amber colored.. and the ones i bought for the brake/tail are clear.

WD21's dont have chipped keys..right? My spare key sets off the alarm EVERY time..yet when i use my original..it opens fine.. (with both keys i even turn the key twice to unlock all the doors) what the?? O.o
-

-
ohh..yeah..i usually do lock it with the key fob..
hmm..it sets it off as soon as i open the door.. but what i dont get is..i unlock my doors by turning it twice, with both keys, my original key doesnt do it..yet, my new key will set the alarm off, even though the alarm system LET the key tell the alarm brains to open the doors.. i wonder if the new key wasnt made right or something..?

why do i smell burnt (i think oil) and yet my oil level never changes... and hasnt over the past 2 months...
-
Valve cover gasket or in my case bad pressure sensor (leaking). Somewhere you have an small oil leak and it is hitting your exhaust, in most cases it is a valve cover gasket but it could be elsewhere. Take a look under the hood and underneath for leaking oil. If you don't see anything try a piece of clean cardboard under the engine, it should be long enough to reach the the transmission housing, next time you park at home.
You just want to make sure nothing critical is leak...

What did you do to your Pathfinder today?
NissanNismoZ replied to RedRider3141's topic in The Garage
Removed clear tint from windows (clear tint is a stupid idea, to whoeever wants to do it! >.<) -
Hmm.. Possibly a vacuum problem? Check your fuel pressure regulator hose on the back of the intake? Fuel pump issue? Check all vacuum lines, including the ones running off the charcoal canister.. What have you done and not done? I had a problem with my pathy, just behind where the intake grounds are, is a fuel line..mine was loose and leaking..maybe try checking that? Hope we can figure it out!

Why do Pathy's only average 20mpg and jeeps avg around 25 with a V8.. O.o
-
Do the WD21 pathys have lights on the cruise control (on steering wheel) and on the power window remote on the door? like backlights?
-
Nevermind on the last comment..I'm changing it ALL over to LED's on the exterior..I'm supposing eBay LED's (at least 8 LED's per bulb) would be good?
-
But, the thing is i dont have speedo issues..my entire cluster works perfectly, my speedometer is right on the dot compared to my GPS.. it never acts up..ill be tackling the troubleshooting when its not snowing..im guessing something is wacky between the speedo and ECU Thanks for the idea though.
-
Hmm..changing clear bulbs in side markers beside headlights to orange LED's?
