Useful! I think I might do this for my lighting equipment.

I don't think there is any inverter/battery combo out there that can handle pro quality continuous video lighting.
I have pretty high-end photography strobes with power packs, and just running the modelling lights on them would drain them in under 20 minutes.

I loved your build threads. I agree on the diesel. Even my V6 LE does pretty abysmal on gas, I wish we got the diesel version here. That said. You wanted something BIGGER than a pathfinder? I can sleep in the back of mine and I once lost my wife in the cavernous back. I don't even think I can fit so...

This sounds eerily similar to the issues I was having. 60kph shudder that felt like driving over the rumble strips. It was only every once and again and it took us 3 weeks of ownership and a long distance trip to notice that the car had transmission problems. For me it ended up being the dreaded coo...

I have literally picked up my pathfinder from the dealer today after similar issues. As well as a shudder that felt like rumble strips, at certain rev ranges. I too, had the milkshake coloured AT fluid. I ended up having to replace my entire radiator and transmission.I was lucky enough that I was st...

Well. We're back. It took some doing. After all the parts were fixed from the first post (brakes, balljoints, upper arms, tierods etc) we were finally able to do a test drive to analyze the 60kph shudder. Of course we already knew what it was after I had the trans flushed and with some help from thi...

They are supposed to be the same. That said, I'm originally from Europe where this is controlled MUCH tighter, apparently. Anyway, the government has been informed of this little snafu, and I've had the car re-inspected at the Nissan dealer again, and all seems well. Besides the fact that after dump...

Update! And it's quite a good one. So the weekend after I had it dropped off at the dealer was one full of revelations. After the Nissan dealer had a look at it, they called me up in disbelief asking me when I had last serviced the car. Considering I've only put 2500 kilometres on it, and I've barel...

That depends very much on the make/model/features of your aftermarket alarm. There is no universal answer.

Not having the best of luck with this Pathy (mostly resolved

Besides finding out that mine is having the transmission issues, I have found a few other small things that I wasn't really worried about. I have a creaking noise at full lock that I suspect is a ball joint, and a few days ago it started to make a "worn pad" grinding noise. ...despite it j...

Killed the squeaker!

For a week to two I have been hunting down the most awful squeak/rattle/chirp/noise in the car. I searched the forums for noises and squeaks, looked at some interior and suspension causes. Swayer bushings, hood latch... etc. Then I noticed going over the same road several times, that "in traffi...

I have 2 key fobs with my pathfinder. One OEM and one after market. The OEM one rolls the windows down, but not up. The after market one rolls the windows up, but not down.

It's driving me insane.
