Hello everyone, As an FYI - I have looked at other posts and have seen some material surrouding this topic - but Nissan is explaining something different... 2 problems: 1 - 'clunk' at low speeds when turning wheel 2 - 'high pitch' from front end while driving 1> When turning the wheel at low speeds I am hearing and feelings a 'clunk' from the front end. I have read that it might be the steering stops (however the 01 pathy does not have them according to the mechanic). 2> While driving next to a wall or parked cars I am hearing a high pitch squel. I read that it might be the dust boots. Nissan is telling me that my brakes are brand new (I bought the used car 6 months ago) so the pads are not low. He said that I would have to replace the brakes to fix the noise - I dont think the whole pad assembly needs to be replaced. Any thoughts from anyone? Should I try a new Nissan dealership and let them look at it? Thanks! `JV'

Just to let everyone know. I replaced the knock sensor on the left bay and the O2 sensor. All is well now and I'm back to my ~16MPG fuel. Fuel was really bad - running rich and making me go to the pumps 2x a week. Thanks for everyone's help!

I'm looking into that - but it looks like I have to take off the bumper to get to the screws. I beleive it is a one piece design - I will check it out this weekend when I am changing my oil and keep everyone posted - thanks for the info...

Does anyone know where I can find some yellow fog logs for my 2001 Pathfinder? I currently have the stock white - I am looking for fogs to replace the current ones in the stock location. Any help would be grateful!

Thanks skrillaguerilla... Hahaha - just noticed my member number - not bad! Well I stopped by Nissan the other day and a friend in the garage pulled my codes for me - he is a Nissan mechanic and wants to fix the sensors off the clock. But the problem is, that I want a receipt for my work since the car is so new. I don't think I'm going to go with their option...

I totally agree with the gain. I'm not really worried about HP - if anything I will get <2HP to the wheels. Does the fuel estimate sound right?

Hello everyone, I am thinking of getting an air induction system for my 2001 pathy. I have only found one air induction system for this model. Can anyone provide feedback on the intake system or even cons to a intake. Mostly I was conserned with the mass air flow sesnor... I have attahached the link for the product... Air Induction System Look near bottom for Pathfinder model.... Thanks! JV

Thanks for the wish of good luck. I was almost about to trade the Pathfinder in for something else - but I really like the car. The power is awesome, spacious - nothing to complain about (except the sensors). Thanks to everyone for the great welcoming! I'm glad to be a member and an owner of a 01 pathy!

Thanks Mile High. I will see about resetting the sensors and seeing if thats helps...

Welcome - I'm new as well - just wanted to say hi and enjoy ur pathy. I upgraded from a v4 civic - heehee - love the HP and Torque!

Hello Everyone, I brought my Nissan into the dealership the other day for a check engine light. They said that the timing sensor was blown and they would order a new one. When I brought the car in a month later they fixed the sensor but now they are telling me that 4 other sensors (2xO2 and some others) are now blown....wtf? The car is only 6 months old to me and 3 years old - does anyone have any ideas as to why all my sesnors are going bad? I have another appt tonight and would like some feedback before I go in. If you have any questions please let me know...thanks in advance. JV
