Tungsten Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 I'll save you some time. I don't remember seeing that there on a VG30E but I'm going to go check for it. Maybe there is a way to close that hole? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Towncivilian Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 I was under the impression that in 2001, all North America Pathfinders were equipped with the VQ35? I highly recommend you verify what motor you have. There should be a plaque on your firewall tucked to the far passenger side, in the engine compartment. About 1/2 way down it will say "Engine Type"... B This should indeed be the case, unless someone swapped a VG33E into a 2001+ R50. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PamPoovey Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 You guys are so awesome! I love being a member of this board! I just bought a 02 Pathy with ODO 194k last week and those CarFax aren't as helpful as they promote. I'm glad I don't have to worry about getting a timing belt replaced ASAP! Thanks again!
