1. How long do the bags hold air?

2. I saw the optional "tee" was $6.95 on one site; couldn't something like that be purchased at Home Deport/hardware store for less?

Than you

Towing light trailer with 2011 Pathfinder- Need for WDH????

Wow,....this topic is so confusing. Talked to a 3rd RV dealer today and he indicated the same as the other two, that I really only needed sway control for a such a light trailer as the MPG, and that WDH's were meant for heavier and longer trailers. The MPG has a loaded GVWR of 3,800 Lbs, but do not ...

I don't have the airbags yet, but can tell you that the airbags are not a substitute for a WDH. I've used WDH before and they are a life saver when towing big. I'm really don't think I'm "towing big". The MPG we got has a GVWR of 3,800 LBS. I've had two RV dealers tell me they didn't thin...

1. I was actually looking to see if there are any replacement shock absorbers like the Monroe Air Shocks.

2. Will the Airlift 1000/Air Bags void the warranty?

Rear Air shocks for a 2011 Pathfinder??

Are there air shocks that will fit and lift the rear end of a 2011 Pathfinder? We have a small camper with a 3,800Lb loaded GVWR. When we hooked it up, the rear end of our Pathfinder dropped 1-1/2", and the front end went up 1/2". Instead of a weight distribution hitch, I'm thinking since ...

I installed mine last night. Riding to work this morning, I did notice it to be a little firmer. Could be all in my head - just knowing it should feel different makes it feel different. We'll see how it does this weekend. We're going tent camping. We carry about 400 lbs of gear with us. The first t...

2011 Pathy; Modify headlights as DRL's?

Live in the USA, so our 2011 Pathfinder did not come with DRL's. I would like to modify our headlights to be on during the day like DRL's; has anyone done that?

PS: Do not want to void the warranty.

Thank you

What gear to tow in; 2011 Pathy?

OK, this may seem like a silly question, but here goes: We just got a 2011 Pathy Silver, and plan to tow a camper as sonn as we get one. The Silver is equipped with a 5 speed Auto, and there's no overdrive switch. Don't see anything in the manual about what gear to put it in while towing, so I would...

What campers do you tow with your V6 Pathy's?

On the fence with getting a Pathy to tow a 3,800 R-Pod or MPG camper, and would like to know what campers you guys are towing with you V6 Pathys.

Is it an easy tow, or do you know for sure it's back there?

Thank you

In light of past few years of ever increasing gas prices, why hasn't Nissan done anything to ensure their V6's can run properly on "REGULAR" gas like most other engines do. I really like the Pathfinder, but find it discouraging that I will/may need to run premium gas, especially when towin...

How is the 2010/2011 V6 Pathfinder at towing?

Looking to get a 2010/2011 V6 Pathfinder to tow our 3,800 Lb camper. Would appreciate some insight from you guys on how well the Pathfinder tows? The Pathfinder comes with a 4 Pin connector; my camper (as most campers) requires a 7 Pin connector; how do convert to a 7 pin? Also, is there a plug unde...

2010/2011 Pathfinder- Regular or Premium gas???

Looking to get a 2010 or 2011 Pathfinder with a V6, to tow our 3,800 Lb camper. However, the Pathfinder recommends Preimum gas, and with the cost of gas now-a-days, that is a budget buster. The service guy at the dealership said most folks use regular. Just looking to find out some ground truth here...
