Can't leave park unless I stick a thin stick (I use a tire pressure end from 7-11) it's been like this for months If I wanna leave park I have to stick the stick into the shift lock each time Any hacks to this ? I'm not very handy, how expensive of a job would this be? I'm sure it's just a buste spring or something ----- Also , my 2004 is nearing 100k miles (I'm at 96k now ) WhAt type of maintence shoul I do soon? Spark plugs? New brake calipers? I changed my trans fluid at 90k and that eliminated a mild trans shutter at highway speeds so all set there. Think I need to replace my muffler again smh, any great pathy mufflers for good price? I changed it at around 82k and was changed when I got it at 50k

Omg your 98 pathy looks amazing!! 98 is my favorite year, I had a 98 prior to my 04 and it was such a beast!!! I hit a street sign one time in it and destroyed the sign and just the tiniest little dent on the front grill of the pathy 98s are tough as hell, I'm actually looking for one on CL for 500 as well with low miles since I might sell my 04 this fall and buy a newer civic/accord possibly

Thank you all so much Checked my fluid today with the dip stick and it was still redish with yellow/brown tint to it, didn't notice any medals on the stick or napkin I called a local transmission shop that's highly reputable and told him my situation Said as long as it's still redish he will change it and the filter, no flush. Just a change of fluid and filter. Quoted me at $200 and again this shop has nothing but great reviews Should I go do it in the near future? Call my regular mechanic and see if he's cheaper or go with the specialists?

When on the highway once in a while I'll feel like I'm going over those little mini white speed strips you see coming down big hills. Very minor feeling and lasts about 1 second then goes away and will happen every 3-4 mins or so when going 60-70 mph 04 pathfinder Anyone know what it could be? Hopefully not a tranny issue

Really annoying and have seen it's common I In nissans If I pump the brakes nothing, I have to pull up the ebrake and hit the brakes a few times and it will usually unlock.. Lately I've been just jamming my tire guage stick down the shift lock hole to shift if needed but again, super annoying. Only have 87,500 miles so kind of frustrated.. Is it just a bad spring Inside? Bad wire? I'm really not a handy man so anyway to fix this easily without having to take everything apart? My break lamps work btw

I have some westlake su391s on right now which are super cheap $275 for a set of 4 if anyone needs some new rubber Have 18k on them and outside of some minor wear on the fronts, and a few little cracks are and there the tires are fine However I ran over a glass bottle and there's a inch long gash in my tire. It's not leaking air but I'm ready to slap some new higher grade tires on especially for my Miami trip coming up I plan on getting Bridgestone H/L Alena Plus tires. They have 80k mile warrantee and great reviews for highway. The size I'm looking at is 245/65/17H 105 Now clearly I don't need an H speed rating lol but I don't mind it even tho I'll never get close to 130 My question is. Is a 105 load index high enough? And is it more then high enough? My current chinese tires are 107 an I can't find anything about the stock index Only reason why I ask is 105 seems to be the lowest load index I'm seeing on tires this size. Thanks pathy fam

So far sounds good guys. I love my pathfinder. Before this one I had a 98 all black with over 240k miles on it. Barely had issues, was rusted up The ass tho and looked like crap but I swear it was even more bad ass then my 04 which has more power yet the 98 felt stronger and smoother. Keep it coming family , I love these vehicles!! They have serious off road ability even stock and reliability as my 98 proved to me, just never drove so far in one befofe always used a honda for road trips Besides the putrid gas mileage I love this car One negative about the 04 LE is the side airbags create a bit of a blind spot, the 98 had amazing sight all around but not a big issue . My mechanic says I need new routers with breaks but I think I just need break pads, routers came new when I bought it at 50k miles. I had cheap chinese tires put on at 70k and they are already wearing a bit, maybe I'll invest in fresh rubber for the trip but id rather not. Just not a fan of these Tires, will get a rotation with my next oil change (due for one) and then make a decision on the breaks. Car could also use a nice detail, my glacier white looks off white now. Also will be taking this ride in the summer not now.

Hello been a while. I bought my white pathy LE in September 2014 with just 50k miles on it even!! For 8,500 dollars. Haven't had any issues besides exhaust, breaks are due for a change soon. No problems besides squeaks when it's wet for some reason and my spare fire dangles loose. Any tips for this long drive? My 2014 CRv would be better for this trip but won't be available that week due to it being used for my job. That gets 26 mpg and cruises at 80 mph no problem Anyway, what tire pressure is ideal for the 2,800 mile trip or so? Also any other tips to max out my mileage? For some reAson I'm only getting 14-17 mpg and I'm currently at 87 k miles will it make it? Should I be worried about the pathy holding up for that drive? Can I somehow squeeZe out 18mpg? Or more? Also my pathy doesn't really like going faster then 70-80 mph I can tell she is very uncomfortable cruising at speeds higher then 80-90 especially for distance. The CRv can cruise at 90 at 2krpm, pathy goes around 3200 rpm at 80 mph. Then again the pathy is a beast vehicle used in war zones. Any tips family?

I'm about to get my trans serviced/or fluid change real soon. Shoul I take it to a chain like sears or midus? Or a local trusted shop ?
