Finally got a look at the report. They recommend that we replace the lower control arm which includes the ball joints. They said that the ball joint "has some play in it" So based on that, what do you think? I am mainly worried about safety since this is my wife's car and she is driving ar...

That's what I am thinking right?

We have no steering issues and there is no noise when going over bumps or sharp steering other than the usual pathfinder interior rattle.

Wife just called me from the tire shop after getting her tires rotated and balanced. Shop says that we need ball joints replaced and that it won't pass inspection in 6 months. Any idea what kind of cost I am looking at? Is this something I get done at a dealer or can my local garage guy do it. 2008 ...

I am out in Massachusetts.

I would seriously just go to the dealer and talk to them. I have found that generally they are very nice about it. What do you have to lose? I did it and gained a brand new radiator.

They will absolutely replace it even if there is nothing wrong. I had my 2008 LE in for service and was chatting with the tech. And we were talking about the radiator issue and how it is pretty rare in 2008's but that he has seen a couple. Next thing I know he is telling me that they will replace th...

Get the Continental LX20 crosscontact and never look back. They are amazing and a steal at around $150 each.

Thanks to everyone on here for helping out with the tire decision. Ultimately after reading all the reviews i decided to take the leap and go with the Continental LX20 with ecoplus. I have about 1k miles on them now and here is what I think - Pros - Very quiet Unbelievably smooth and absorbs a lot o...

So the LTX's handle well in the snow but what about the highway and MPG?

Bandy1080

I never even looked at the Michelin because of the price point. I can get them for $200 versus $160 for the conti's. Based on what you guys are saying the price difference seems to be worth it. This will be mainly for highway driving and we do get a lot of snow and rain here in New England so it nee...

Thinking of going with Conti LX20 as well. They just seem to get the best reviews for an all season tire. That said, can anyone point me where to find them at $135? Jesus that's low. The best I can find is $160.

Anyone try replacing the stock headlight bulbs with LED bulbs instead of HID? I am sort of intrigued by them since the hi and low beams would work. http://www.ebay.com/itm/CREE-KIT-9007-HB5-Pack-of-2-LED-BULBS-25W-HIGH-LOW-BEAM-HEADLIGHT-REPLACEMENT-/131077836076?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessorie...

How loud are the grabbers on the highway and any decline in MPG?

Have a 2008 LE with 89,000 miles. My platinum extended warranty is about to run out in August. I plan on keeping the car for a lot longer. I have a great relationship with my mechanic. To the point where he is willing to fix anything right now under warranty that could become problematic after the w...
