  1. Welcome... Jon could not have said it better ..!
  2. Welcome... and for the oil consumption I can't help really as mine does not have this disease... cheers.
  3. There is a full diagnostic procedure for the electronic hvac in the Factory service manual page HA-45. With that you will be able to test everything on it from led to mode and intake door motor as the input signals too. I suspect the mode motor which is under the steering wheel, on the right (directly on the left underside of the center dash).. With the fsm, you will also be able with an voltmeter, to test if the motor is still good or if it is a piece of something that is stuck in there... s.
  4. If I were you, the first thing I would buy is a diagnostic tool... or else you might just play the replace part game until you run out of money.... What I mean is that you need to know what is going on with your air/fuel ratio. For this you will need to know the amount of air coming in (MAF reading ), then the fuel pressure (to rule out a defective fuel pump), then you need to know what the computer is trying to do to fix the lean condition (this will show as your short and long term fuel trim data).. As the same time you can check if any misfire are in the package and start from there... Right now you're going blind at it and it can only get worse... just my 2 cents... S.
  5. Like , xplorx4 said, I like his method alot better because if you are running any camber bolts, you just screwed up your alignment with the method showed in the video... that's more money to fork out for an alignment that is not necessary... the method from xplorx4 is the method I use also...
  6. Think of it in the following manner... If you have a, let's say 5000 lbs to move upward a hill... If your truck is a normal 4x4 on , then you will have 1 wheel in front and 1 wheel in the rear pulling and pushing... That makes roughly 2500lbs of weight to move per axle... compare it to the same 5000lbs with a set of lockers... that makes 1250lbs per axle to pull/push the same weight. that's what I mean by less strenuous. also, being locked changes the way you approach difficult obstacles... you go at it slowly and usually do not need the skinny pedal action... most of the breaking axles are done when the wheel goes from fast spinning to suddenly gripping (or getting traction).... when you're locked, all your wheel have the same wheel speed (traction or not)...so these fast change of rotation do not happen any more..
  7. Same here... actually being locked is a lot less strenuous on the hardware as now every corner is pulling, not just one... so you can go at it easy and slow and just crawl your way,...
  8. That's pretty cool.... Do you have any pictures with the hoses hooked up on all 4 ?
  9. I did do something like this... I did not wanted to drill a hole for a full blown snorkel... You'll see in the post... enjoy.. http://www.nissanpathfinders.net/forum/topic/25150-my-new-selectable-air-intake-with-a-little-extra/?p=460747
  10. Getting air in AFTER your maf could definitely cause a too lean mixture and even misfire..... Do you have any reading of your O2 sensors (via obd2) ?
  11. I had the same thing with my 2001 at one time... I looked at all the usual suspects like you... ended up being the inner tie-rod ends... Even when I removed them I was not sure as they were still stiff, but after changing them, the problem was gone instantaneously.. I guess you can't really wiggle them by hand and find if they are done or not when the problem only occurs over a bump.. This means it takes alot of pressure in a fast burst for the problem to occur... I will try to find the post on it.. I'm pretty sure I did write about it in here.. S,.
  12. For me , I used the A pillar for my roof lights. Everything fitted properly under the weather rubber strip... then the wires come out around the B pillar.. I put a small dab of black silicone and I never had any water come in between or under the weather strip.. here's a few pics..
  13. from the main site, click on <closeouts> button on the lower left....then choose nissan... it's the only product there.
  14. Welcome !.. If you have any codes, we might be able to better help..
  15. This is a graphic that I used before to explain how the camber bolts work... But I would still go to an alignment shop so they can dial the camber bolts to bring your camber to specs...
  16. I have been using the ingalls one (81260) since 2009 now and they have been great. It's funny when you talk about the old timer... I think you will have more chance of having a good alignment with an <old timer> that have probably seen camber bolts then a new guy out of school.. Just my 2 cents... Cheers.
  17. The guy in question was having issues with is transfer case that were not related to the hubs.. Me and many others have been running hubs with the atx14a TC with no issues and no 4x4 light..
  18. I doubt nissan will repair this after your welded plate... Keep us informed if you decide to go to nissan for the recall
  19. Yeah ... Your comment about the air gap combined with the rust gave me the idea of cleaning the knuckle .. Envoyé de mon iPhone en utilisant Tapatalk
