Hello,
I'm looking a buying a 95 LE model pathfinder. It's a 5 speed. I really know nothing about import SUV's. I've always had Explorers.
The pathfinder in question has the exhaust manifold leak I'm told. I haven't looked at it yet so I'm not sure how bad it is. Other then that it's in good condition I'm told. Has 90K miles. It's a Florida truck.
I did read through & searched around. Some good info. I found my answers to the stereo questions I had & a few others.
From my experience with Explorers there's a bunch of things that die on them. I'm not sure if pathfinders suffer from it as well.
So...
Do the window motors fail often?
Do the auto hubs break?
Any potential leaking areas with age, oil pan, rear main seal, valve covers etc.
How does the 5 speed trans hold up? Is it strong? Had 2 go out on explorers with less then 100K miles.
Any problems with suspension bushings wearing out? Like on older explorers the Radius arm bushings would fail every 40K or so.
If I wanted to lift it what would be my options? I didn't see too much in that area when I searched.
Any performance parts I can add? like intake, headers(I found the pacesetter's but need the oil filter relocation kit)
I also found the timing belt may need to be changed. Saw the thread on replacing that. How important is it with 90K miles?
Lastly for now, what's a good asking price for this? I was thinking of $2200.
Thanks
