Wierd that the the one pertaining to this is the only one (*).

 

Its listed as *96-065 - June 96 - Engine Knock after cold start.

I remember getting this recall notice in the mail in 1996 for a Path I owned back then and bringing my car in then. Thats why I know about it.

[D21 Engine Recall]

I just bought a 95 Pathfinder SE and it is being shipped to me. I owned the same vehicle in the mid 90s. It was Recalled then for a valve tap issue. I brought it in and they replaced the upper half of the engine.

 

I looked long and hard online for info related to this and this is what I found:

 

The Silent Nissan Recall

 

In the spring of 1995 Nissan Motor Corporation made a change in their VG3E 6 cylinder engines. By March 1996 Nissan engineers discovered a defect in these engines. Their records showed that these defective engines were put into about 100,000 vehicles, 38,422 of which were 1995-1996 Pathfinders the remainder were in Quests and trucks.

 

1995-96 Pathfinders with VIN numbers ending in ...075996 through ...114418 were affected.

 

My Vin falls within this group (ugh) and I dont know if it was brought in for the service. Does anyone have any experience with this and will Nissan even entertain the idea of servicing it (no charge) now??

I agree. I called a local JY and he laughed at me saying itll be a one in a million to find one, especially not jacked up with damage.

 

The search continues...

[95 Path Brush Guard]

Hello all! Im a newbie to the forum. Im excited to get back into a white 5-spd 95 path SE, 130k miles, bone stock. Being shipped from Seattle to me here in NJ next week. I used to have the same truck in Ultra Red new in mid 90s and I missed it so I bought this one!

 

Anyway, would like to know if anyone has an OEM or similar grille/brush guard that I could buy? I looked long and hard on the internet and cannot find anything. Last post here for it was 2012 it seems.

 

Thanks and excited to be back in the Path.
