scottander Posted July 14, 2019 Share Posted July 14, 2019 (edited) Just finished installing a bumper on my 03 pathfinder and part of the air intake system hangs down really low. What do people normally do with this guy? Thanks for any advice. Scott Edited July 14, 2019 by scottander Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sjackson2 Posted July 14, 2019 Share Posted July 14, 2019 Leave it there. Get a snorkel and ditch it. Or build some sort of cover for it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottander Posted July 16, 2019 Author Share Posted July 16, 2019 OK thanks, not sure I like any of those options but might look at making some kind of cover if there are no better options, is it the same piece for all r50's? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjotrainbrain Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 When I left mine exposed I got an intake full of water rather easily. I'd suggest ditching it, plugging up the hole in the bottom of the airbox, and putting a new hole (covered with mesh) on the top of the airbox. Should be nice and safe from water intrusion that way without having to buy an expensive snorkel. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yes....all r50s have that piece Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joshrichard Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 What about the sensor that hooks up to the whole thing? Is that going to throw any codes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good point, forgot to mention that. The part you remove for my solution is where that sensor is normally mounted. I drilled a new hole in the side of the airbox for the sensor. Never had a code issue. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
