I never had cleaned the engine bay... I have send it to wash only twice in a year of having the Pathy... Do you clean it at home or go to wash center? I have seen lots of videos on youtube about how to clean the engine bay... What do you suggest? Precautions? Critical points? Thanks 👍

Nice ride.!

That is an alarm with gps tracking or something... I found this.... http://www.the12volt.com/installbay/forum_posts.asp?tid=58865

I was looking some videos about changing the oil filter at half oil change for keeping the oil cleaner... Or change the oil at home... I do not know if i will do it but... Y asked just for curiosity... And there is another question.... Hahahahaha Do i need to have a special tool for removing the oil filter? Where the filter is located is like PITA to remove i think... Do you remove it with your hands... Just turn it and voilà? I have changed my scooter motor oil and valvuline... But never a car's oil... Thanks!

I have a naive question... Can I change the oil filter without changing the oil? Or do i have to drain all the oil before I change the filter... And then put again the oil?

^^^^^ As Rebelord says... Here in Bogotá you can go to "your" mechanic or a refered one... Or go to the Nissan or whatever brand workshop... If you go to your mechanic usually he does not provide parts, but sometimes he suggests where to buy them or knows someone who knows... At the Nissan or other workshop you have no choice, you have to buy them their really expensive parts...

Mine one button for locking, beeps and lights... One unlock button, unlock drivers door, and lights... Two unlock button, unlocks all doors and lights... No beeping for unlocking... On the rear of the control i have.... Press both lock and unlock for 2 seconds: Beep<----->quiet

As SkiBumBrian said... Maybe it is only plastic melted... Lucky you there was people near to the Pathy to extinguish the fire!

Change oil and oil filter today... Swap to Mobil 1, 5w30.

I went to the oil center... They change it in 15 minutes, oil and oil filter. I put Mobil 5w30... Let see how it goes...

I do city driving... Some road driving with variable characteristics... In the city you will find depending on the season of the year lots of water pools or dust... Hahahah you never know... You may have a beatifull sunny day... And suddenly cold storm with hail.... Hahahahaaha Does someone knows something about SK SIC oil? http://zicoil.pk Thanks!

I am getting confused about the oil type and grade I have to use in my 2000 Pathy R50 VG33e... Reading about oil grade... All of you or most part of you (Pathfinder users) use 5w30 or 10w30 oil... But here (in Colmbia) I asked in some forums and they use 20w50 or similar... And they use mineral oil... I asked some mecanics... And they said you can use 20w50 or 10w30... Here in Bogotá (2600 meters altitude) we have dry and rain season... Temperature almost never goes down 0 celcius... And is difficult to have 28c or 30c... But if you drive two hours out of the city you can have 25c to 40c... And you woul be at 1000 meters altitude... Or you ca reach sea level and great summer weather at 4 hours ride.... Should I use 10w30 or 20w50... Mineral, synthetic or semi... Thanks! 👍

Hahahaha that's what i said almost a year ago....

Nice ride.!!! And great photos..!

Safety first 👍

I build this protector/cusion for the rear side... Moka loves it... And I do not need pet barrier 👍

Weekend at my dad and mon small farm....

Maybe a small leak... Almost a six months ago that happend to me... It was a loosen screw... In the coolant reservoir the level was ok, but in the radiator was a little down.... I tighten al the screws and when I was doing that one hoose was humid... That's where I found the leak that affected the temperature.

Which cv boots are you using?

I just bought my external CV joints, Nissan's, and they look like the ones they sell online...

Talking to my mechanic and the guy from the alignment service place, they agree with the rotation, balance and aligment of the wheels... It has to be done every 5000km... Because of th characteristics of our roads, weather, etc...

How much do they last? In months or miles? Thanks.

I just install new coil springs on my pathy... Using same tires... Something similar happend to me... Sometimes at low speed 30km/h or high speed 60-80km/h the steering wheel started to vibrate... Yesterday i went to align an re-balance tires and problem solved.

I just changed my inner cv boots for Nissan's, they where really really expensive... Almost 70 dolars (COP$200.000), and the outer cv boots for OEM or i don't know the brand for 7 dolars (COP$7.000).. really cheap.... But the Nissan's plastic seems much better that the cheap ones... I have read good comments about Rockford cv boots.... I found these silicone and neoprene boots... http://www.autozone.com/drivetrain/cv-boot-kit# Or these HippoRed, from Italy... http://www.hippored.com/?portfolio=cuffia-facile-easy-boot-cv&lang=en Which could be a good quality cv boot and with a reasonable price?
