I think it's the "correct" one. Mine was replaced in 2010 I think, and that's the part number I have. When this last came up on the forum that was the latest known "good" part number. Not sure where 2011 came from... Still, the bypass is cheap insurance! I thought about the bypa...

Now I have many long miles ahead of us!!!! Maybe....realize the radiators were not updated to the non-problematic ones until 2011. So that 2009 radiator is probably also a potential problem. I would still do the bypass, but the rest is clearly good news. if "skinny2" is right about this, ...

It's far from monthly. Most of those things are a once in a long, long while affair. TPMS sensors last years, as do U-joints typically. Those are also things that aren't uncommon for other vehicles anyway. I sometimes feel burned by everything I went through with my truck, but now that it's "o...

Sounds like a great dealership! I would recommend making yourself familiar with the service manual because the Pathfinder needs a little bit of regular TLC around this age and mileage. For me it was a check engine light one week, then a TPM sensor the next week, then the fuel pump two weeks later, ...

The dealer is taking care of everything. The temp gauge is bad and that is being replaced. The charcoal canister seems to be bad as well. But the good thing is this $1000 bill is being done by the selling dealer. Thank you Lord!!!

Re: Would you buy again??

We have not had a pathfinder before but have had and Xterra and loved that vehicle other then it being underpowered. But, the PF has a lot more power to it. What year Xterra did you have? From 05 on, they have the same engine as the pathy, and as far as power to weight ratio, the X would win. As fa...

Well I just checked the radiator part number on it reads 21460-ZL11A and Calsonic made it. The PF is a 2005 and I don't think that the ZL11A was out in 05. So is the 21460-ZL11A the replacement radiator for the PF. I have not been able to verify with the dealer if the radiator was put in by them or ...

Is there a certain brand of radiator to go with or is it better to just do the bypass on it? What type of cooler is used for the bypass and do I need to get one oversized for it cooler that it?

We did go ahead and pick it up. I lost some sleep last night thinking about this. I did get the car fax... it is a one owner and he only put 10,000 miles on it in the last 4 years. It now has 76K on it and the previous owner had the radiator flushed at the dealer at 65K. It does have the ECU recall ...

I hope that we are making the right decision. We are supposed to pick it up on Father's Day. I wanted to wait a day or so longer but they really want to get it off the lot. We are trading in a Ram with only 9300 miles on it. It sits more then we drive it and I have to say I hate paying a payment tha...

Thanks everyone. I did call Nissan dealer and it has an open recall on the ecu relay. They are not moving from the 11,900 price....argh. It did drive well with no rattles either. I have a 4 runner that has the same milkshake issues so I might do both as a preventive measure. Only thing I see is the ...

Would you buy again??

This might be the wrong area but I will ask.? I have ran across a 05 Pathfinder SE. It only has 75K on it and it a one owner. They are asking $11500 Firm! It seems to be very well taken care of from what I can tell. We have not had a pathfinder before but have had and Xterra and loved that vehicle o...
