  1. Sorry about that! I put front and rear alignment instead of two wheel alignment.
  2. Just talked with a small garage- Complete Tire. They said they would repack the wheel bearings with new seals for about $100.00 and a front and rear alignment for $45.00 with tire rotation! Hopefully they won't jack the price on me when the see what a pain it is to get to the bearings. This might fix the road wander that my truck has. It wasn't a fun trip from Maine to NY swerving all over the highway!
  3. Hi. I just found out that my right exhaust manifold has broken studs, but my left manifold is fine. Should I just replace the studs on the right one or wait till they both die and get headers? What is less expensive? Thanks for the input!
  4. I went to the dealership for an alignment and they said I needed my front wheel bearings repacked-$240!!!! Any one have this done recently??? What did you pay?
  5. Hi everyone. Found this site by mistake and I love it. I just bought a 1995 Nissan Pathfinder XE-V6 with 129,000 miles. It runs great- rode from New York to Maine and back with no problems- except one. I lost about 1/2 of the coolant in my resevoir on the trip. Also, just driving about 60 miles in 3-4 days, I lost 1/2 of my coolant in the reservoir once again! I fill the coolant to max in the reservoir on cold and check it on cold. There are no visible drips whatsoever from the car-it has been parked in the same spot for a few days. I took it to the garage- they pressure tested the radiator (pumped 17-18 psi) and put it on the lift- they could not find a leak. They checked the radiator for exhaust fumes with the color changing liquid tube- color stayed the same. They used a blacklight test to look for leaks and found nothing. My exhaust doesn't smell sweet and there is no water/coolant in the passenger side carpet. They checked the oil- it is not milky or have spots from water. They took it for a test drive- didn't notice anything. Please help because I know it is going somewhere, I just cannot figure out where. I shouldn't be losing coolant this fast should I? Could I need a new radiator cap? Thanks- Patrick
