Here in Western Massachusetts rust on cars is a never ending issue I noticed on my 2012 Pathfinder I am starting to get some rust on my frame. So should I paint it is the question? I know that sometimes you can cause more problems from painting and I don't want to do that! So what you think paint or...

If you have to drop into third gear on long hills do so and let the motor spin up it will not hurt the motor and it's better for the trans. On the MA turnpike going into the Berkshires I drop to 3 and keep the tack around 3,500-4,000 rpm and about 55 mph and I was really not down on the gas much at ...

That's great that it worked out. What did you wind up setting the PSI at for your airbags? It is surprising how well the R51 tows a camper when properly set up and also how much power that 4.0 V6 has once it gets wound up. The first time I towed my camper with my Pathy I was on the MA pike on the fl...

SMJ is that even worth fixing or would it be better at that point to short block it? I would bet rebuilding a VQ40 is not cheep?

Just a reminder to check how your air box top is sitting on your air box. I did an oil change two days ago and checked my air filter and today I checked my oil and noticed a slight "Bow" to the back part of my air box top in the back where the middle push on tab is. You could actually see ...

Yes looks great! Really like them tires what size did you get?

That is the same color of my 2012 and I swear they pushed out a boat load in that color in 2012.

Wow! Can I buy them for spare?

After this last winter I realized that I have to stick with an aggressive A/T tire on my R51. It's either that or I switch them out for snow tires and switch back to summer tires in springtime and I don't want to do that. Anyway I am looking at the Firestone Destination A/T tire from a local dealer ...

Just thought I would mention Napa full synthetic motor oil is on sale for $3.49 per quart this month. Napa full synthetic is made by Valvoline and is a quality synthetic I run it in my 2013 Mustang GT and now prob pick up a change or two for my 2012 Pathy.... It's a great price!

My 2012 Pathy V6 sounded like an F16 on full afterburner this am I wonder if my fan clutch is going?

Thanks for the info SMJ they look like a good tire and being 6 pounds less per tire you should get better millage? Keep us updated on how they are if you get them.

I find it amazing that your Pathy is so bad in the snow mine is a tank in the snow! The best SUV I have had in the snow and I have owned five others over the years.

That's a tough call to keep or dump?
