Haha! Future plans are a 2" lift with radflo coils, prg uca's and radflo remote res in the back. I also need skid plates underneath and looking at a 30" LED bar on the roof. Looking to make a fairly capable off road cruiser. The truck is stock now with the exception of the incredible duratracs. <br /><br />Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk 2<br /><br />

Recently got new tires on my pathfinder. Went with Goodyear dura tracs 285/70/17 and tested them off road today. Was greatly impressed with the traction and overall capability of the pathy. Came up on some nasty Hills too. I heart my pathy! <br /><br />Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk 2<br /><br />

^^ another reason u saw smoke when the cap was on was because they cooling system was pressurized. And when there is a leak in pressure the coolant is going to flow to the spot where it's weakest which sounds like a cylinder.... Can't emphasis enough... Compression test...

I agree with your buddy, seems unfortunately like a head gasket.. But get a compression test kit like I said earlier to be sure first, before you spend a lot of money. That will be your confirmation. I speak from experience because I just dealt with a 97 Honda prelude that had a blown head gasket and I had all the same symptoms you are having and as soon as I did a compression test.... It was game over...

Might want to try a compression/leak down test. You can pick up a test kit at any auto store. My guess is bad compression.. Possible coolant leaking into a cylinder. Pull the spark plugs and check them out. If they are wet with coolant than you have bad rings or a bad head gasket. Granted there could be other possibilities... Best of luck to you.

Welcome!

Bummer.. Ok thanks!

What about me? Lol..

Wish I could make it.. Take lots of pics!

Man that's awesome! Definitely looking forward to Joshua tree!

Thanks everyone! Can't wait to hit some more trails!

Yea buddy! Love that V6!

Hi all, Found this forum from theexbrit over on thenissanpath.com. I have a 2010 Pathy, 4WD. Mostly stock with the exception of low/fog HIDs and air bags in the rear. I was saving up for a lift, but we just took our first camping trip this weekend and I was a little taken back by how quickly our interior cargo room got taken up. So I'm thinking of getting a baja roof rack with maybe a 30" LED bar. Hope to learn more from this community and maybe take some off road journeys with you SoCal peeps! Here's a few pics of our trip this weekend... We camped off the 15 and Basin Road. Lots of trails that are mostly sandy but some trails were very rocky and the poor sidewalls of the stock BFGs got a little chewed up. Otherwise, for being stock, the Pathy did well!
