Manual Transmission Sticking

'97 PF w/ 5 spd, 120,000 miles: has driven fine the six months I've had it, but lately the clutch pedal has been sticking to the floor and I'm having trouble shifting it from neutral into any gear. Also, if it is parked in gear, when I start it up in the morning it is very difficult to shift back in...

No problem, it just means what "accessories" the vehicle comes with. All models have air conditioning, for example. However, the XE (base model) doesn't have a roof rack, while the SE and LE do. The LE has leather seats, while the XE and SE do not. You can get an idea of the trim differenc...

Doesn't seem unreasonable. I assume it runs fine, otherwise you would have mentioned it. Pretty high mileage, but if you take care of the vehicle it will live a long time. Pricing should depend somewhat on the trim (XE, SE, LE). Have you looked up the Blue Book value?

No, don't know the actual code. I could probably run over to the mechanic's and find out, but I live in Michigan and don't have to put the vehicle through an emissions test. Online I can get a replacement sensor for about $80. Any idea how long it would take to remove the manifold and replace the se...

Check Engine Light - Knock Sensor?

My mechanic ran a diagnostic on my Check Engine light. He said it was coming from the knock sensor, but since the vehicle seems to run fine ('97 w/ 120,000 miles), he suggested I leave it be (bunch of labor involved since you have to take off the manifold to access the sensor). I tried disconnecting...

Did you ever get the rust fixed?

Just bought a '97 and the body is in great shape except for significant rust damage over the right rear wheel well. Are there kits out there to replace a section, or do you need to replace the entire panel? Thanks for any help.

Brush guard/bull bar for '97 Pathfinder

Just purchased a 1997 Pathfinder and I'm looking for a brush guard or bull bar to install up front. I can't seem to find much online, and what I did find was pretty expensive (>$400). Anybody know where I can find one that's simple and affordable? Thanks.
