  1. I will clean out my throttle body but do you gus really think that is causing my idle hunting problem while it's warming up? I would think that's a sensor of some sort. Maybe today I'll be able to do a diagnostic on it. Do I have to remove my passenger seat o do this? I can;t see any lights on it, only two plugs going into the front of the ecu and the rest of the computer has a plastic cover. Do I havce to take this cover off? Cheers Ruggs
  2. Hey thanks for all of the info guys, I appreciate it. I will use some carb cleaner on and in the throttle body to loosen everything up. How do you check the code on the computer? Do I need a special tool or do I need to just jump a special plug to get the code flashing like on a toyota? It does have a slight exhaust leak close the ox sensor also. Could that be a major problem?
  3. I am new to this site and my new Pathfinder for that matter. Anyways, I have a few questions about my engine. The motor has 225,000 km's on it. 1) My engine hunts for an idle while it's warming up: It surges to 2000+ rpm and the hiney drops out of it down to 1000 or so. What could be cuasing this? The throttle positioning sensor? 2) Also, when I am driving it cold and I rev it up to 3000+ before a gear change, the rpms stay up at 3000+ for a second or two even though my peddle is let off. TPS also? Sticking throttle bodt linkeage? 3) Once it warms up, it kinda feels like it is missing on one cylinder when idleing. Once I give it a little gas it clears up. WTF? Do I have a toasted plug or something? 4) Also one of my motor mounts (drivers side) is missing it nut. It was popped out but I put it back into the hole. Does anyone know what size nut it is. It seems to have to be a pretty thin nut to fit it in there. Cheers and thanks for listening
