The car was all the way up on the trailer. Squirrely was more of me making light of a bad series of events. It was funny in my head but didn't translate as a joke into typed words. It wasn't that bad. The front end was a little light was all. It wasn't as terrible as I made it out to be. I guess I'm...

Towed my wife's A3 from Birmingham, AL to Savannah, GA. The car crapped out on us while visiting my brother. I was too PO'd to take a picture or weigh it. Research tells me the combined weight was right around 5500 lbs. The ride was pretty squirrely with the stock springs and shocks. 0/10 would not ...

I used a couple of gallons. It was enough to cycle through and give it the bright red coloration. It's not quite the 10 7/8 qt capacity but I figure it was enough to dilute and replace most of the old fluid.

I pulled the hoses where I did the bypass and let it pump it out, adding a little fluid at a time until it looked better. It more or less dilutes the old atf with new. If you're interested in seeing if there's more to it than old fluid you might want to drop the pan and see what's going on inside. T...

It's sort of a pain for 05-07. Access to the bulbs requires getting behind the interior panel on the tailgate. See: http://www.thenissanpath.com/viewtopic.php?t=3542

I too have had good luck with the Valvoline Maxlife ATF. Check your ATF to make sure it's not burned. If you're getting slipping after it gets up to temp it might just need a drain and fill to replace the cooked fluid.

When you did the bypass did you add another cooler?

Check all the connections to the amp under the driver's seat. If they're all good then it might be a bad amp as jahblessings said.

Best of luck. Hope it's something simple.

I got the tires back in November after much research and mixed reviews on them (they're the Wrangler Duratrac). I'm glad I had the 16" wheels instead of the usual 17" you see on other LEs since it gave me tons more options for a budget. They've seen plenty of asphalt, gravel, rain, mud, an...

I bought a 2006 LE 4x4 in February '10 that replaced a 2000 Chevy Blazer. I haven't done a lot to it but have found a lot of great ideas while browsing the forum. I've put 30k miles on it since I got it almost a year and a half ago. I love my Pathfinder and being part of the 'Pathfinder brotherhood....
