So the tape didn't fix it. Nor did lubing the 3 bump stops on the hood. I feel like it may be improperly seated strut spring. WOuld make sense as the front elevates to compensate for load in the back the spring would decompress .

Ive replaced the sway bar bushings and lubed everything. The dealer replaced upper and lower control arms last year. The noise seems to have come after that repair. I noticed its more prevalent when hitting potholes when tire moves downward farther from the truck. When I trailered my camper and the ...

I squirted some white lithium grease on the hood rubber bumpers, and the sway bar bushing, now help.

Potholes will produce a chirp. While leaving the gas station today it made a metal screech with a kind of binding sound.

Has anyone had issues with body mounts on these trucks?

Removing plastic headrest mounts.

How do you remove the plastic headrest mounts that the headrests slide into? I need to run some wires for my kids DVD players.

Squeaking from passenger side suspension

2012 pathfinder stock suspension 40k mileage. For the past couple months whenever I hit a pothole or left a gas station make a right turn I hear a squeak that sound like metal rubbing metal. dealer couldn't duplicate it. This weekend towing our camper made it much worse. I think it was due to the fr...

Turning seems to have no affect. Neither do bumps. Holes etc however are almost 100% to get the noise. Not large holes either, a depressed manhole cover can be enough... Did you ever solve this? Mine is doing the same thing. Had the dealer replace the upper and lower control arms to solve an differ...

My concern is the electric fan that starts screaming when the ac is on. IS that normal?

GPS mounting Ideas

I have a 2012 SV with the factory screen but no GPS. Looked at the site where you can add a Garmin overlay, but that's $1000. Where are you other SV guys mounting your gps units? IS there a sleek location? I know the frontiers and the non screen units have a top of the dash hatch that can be added. ...

Thanks for everything guys. Pathfinder towed the trailer with ease. Had to watch my speed at times, something that was near impossible with my 03 xterra. Now to put in the air bags that just arrived sitting in the box at home.

Dealer found nothing. They said it is all charging and reporting back normal. They also said it was indeed a 7 year battery. We shall see about this one. Going to try and recreate the issue tomorrow. I figure headlights on for 5-10 minutes considering my wife was in the truck for 30 A little hesitan...

Thanks guys. It's at the dealer now. I would hate to have to drop another hundred bucks on this truck considering we got it 3 months ago. Hopefully they will hook me up. As for the 84month warranty yes that is long, but it has it right on top I saw that an thought hot damn. I'll win this battle, wai...

2012 wouldn't start clicking sounds and all lights flashing

Purchased this truck certified in April. Yesterday my wife had it and after letting it sit an hour it wouldn't start. All the lights were flashing including head and taillights. It jumped with my xterra and has been fine today. Is this a battery gone bad? Sticker on the OEM says 84 month warranty, s...
