johnm Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 A weird thing happened yesterday. I went to get an estimate for repair after an accident and when the body shop ran the VIN on my 99 R50, the computer pulled up: 5-speed transmission Automatic transmission This has got to be some weird computer glitch thing...R50s didn't come with 5 speed autos, did they?

Toby Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 Nope. As far as I know caR50's only had 4-Speed slushboxes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SC88Pathy Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 It probably meant transmission options, 5 speed and automatic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldSlowReliable Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 (edited) 4 speed + OD? or reading options off.. Edited January 29, 2010 by OldSlowReliable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toby Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 It probably meant transmission options, 5 speed and automatic. That's what I'm thinking. Most the OD i've seen on transmissions is the highest gear on the transmission (like 4th gear in a 4-speed auto) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingman Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 (edited) Nope, the automatic is a 4-speed RE4RO1A that was used through 2004 since 1988. Edited January 29, 2010 by Kingman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beastpath Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 some must have had 5-speeds considering there are schematics for 5 speed consoles on courtesy nissan, and car-part.com has a few 5 speed consoles avail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnm Posted January 30, 2010 Author Share Posted January 30, 2010 That's what I thought, that it was a 4-speed auto. I guess the body shop computer could have been identifying options 99 pathfinders, like it listed power mirrors, dual mirrors, heated mirrors separately, instead of as a single line, like "heated power side mirrors." Like I said, a little weird. It's a small thing (and unimportant), it's not like I could do anything about it if the pathy had a 5 speed auto in it.
