Yeah, it's one of those "how far do you want to go?" questions. I spent maybe $500 on my Pathfinder if I had to guess. More on the Sentra, but it had more...issues. Something to consider about Dynamat in hot weather. It's tar based where Second Skin is butyl rubber. The former often melts ...

I used these throughout the truck for $6/pair: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B006R0XYGY/ref=oh_details_o04_s00_i00 Fits perfectly, brighter than stock, very white, and won't blind you while driving. I have one of those 48 LED panels coming from Amazon to try in the rear hatch light though. I don'...

Not a lot...or a lot you could do. Mine does enough to help cool or heat the entire truck though, or keep rear passengers comfortable when I have them. It just won't deliver that nice giant blast of cold A/C when just getting into the truck on a hot day. If its a requirement, maybe you could look at...

Just curious...Pathfinders with the closing assist don't have an outer latch under the license plate light cover? Is it only in the key fob or something?

Damping and insulation. Just saying... :-D http://www.secondskinaudio.com I always do this with my vehicle. I did find the Pathfinder doors to be pretty stout before damping and didn't notice quite the increase in sound quality I had before on my Sentra, but it definitely significantly improves it. ...

Also noticed the truck is idling high, around 1100 in park maybe 900 in gear While you had everything open did you clean the throttle butterfly valve? Just curious. They designed it to learn only one way and open more and more as the valve gets deposits on it. When you clean it and it needs to clos...

I think you're talking about the giant brush guard on the front rather than the bumper (or plastic "bumper cover") itself.

+1 for the Icons.

Bosch has released some lower price point models using the same technology though, the Clear Advantage and Evolution.

Wish they'd done it that way when I first had my radiator replaced...

That's what the Energy Suspension ones I ordered look like...lots of sources out there. I'm just waiting to see what these look like and get them installed before I start throwing out part numbers and measurements to everyone :-) They run two different bracket sizes for GM's and Ford's based on oute...

Posted this on R51 int/ext: I ordered this product: Wipenew.com You've probably seen the product on TV lately. Their claim is that it gets all the black plastic parts back to new and it's supposed to last for a long time. (I believe the commercial said two years) I've used several of the "back...

Do you feel the front bushings are worth the cost/time? Yup! With just the front bushings alone the truck corners a lot better, particularly at highway speed. Best test was a downhill entrance ramp onto a highway at 80mph with a BMW cutting me off. Front left tire had a lot of turning and brake for...

http://youtu.be/WgQifz2I0qQ I took a video and that's the sound I heard. And just great I think I'm hear the timing chain too. Hope its just nothing but will check tom morning let me know what u think or If ur having problems watching video I don't hear the timing chain noise, or it's not really ob...

Can a Pathfinder be gurgling free? My truck is brand new with less than 700miles on it currently, so is this the best I can get it as far as gurgling goes? Mine didn't do it with 2/3 of the fluid missing so I'd imagine it can get better :-D If it's in the heater core like tlee_20 says then perhaps ...

Wheels straight while you're trying to shift? Sometimes the transfer case is finicky if the front wheels are turned either way. Moreso shifting back to 2WD, but doesn't hurt to ask...
