Aren't all 2005-2010 Pathfinders susceptible to this?
It would be a surprise if a 2011 or 2012 model year pathfinder had this problem.

I can think of other things that could possibly cause your problem, but your truck is too new for that.

One is that you turbo actuator is stuck (rusted or whatever) causing overboost/limp. Does the truck fail to rev past 2000 rpm or so sometimes?
Can you feel the turbo actuator shaft by hand and ...

Finally watched your video.
It is a diesel and it has manual transmission! I am jealous!

It looks like it is cold over there, -3C according to you thermometer so the white smoke can be explained as a cold start white smoke. Nothing abnormal for a diesel. If it goes away after driving it for a bit ...

impulsepath

Your problem is very likely different from "normal" gurgling, but the mechanism why you hear the sound is the same, cavitation noise in the heater core. I am not sure what white smoke means? Coolant getting in the engine? If you pull out the oil dipstick, do you see coolant droplets in the oil on ...

It looks like a starter disable system. I would trace it and remove it from the car. It does not seem to be working anyway. There may be a GPS unit in the car as part of the system. Lenders use it to disable cars of delinquent customers.

impulsepath

Bubbling or gurgling coming from the passenger side of the dashboard is air in the cooling system. Air in the heater core makes a cavitation sound.
Pathfinders by design are plagued by this issue (and Nissans in general).
My 3 month old Pathfinder gurgles straight from the factory... :)

Not sure ...

impulsepath

Hopefully so. MAF, mass airflow sensor measures the amount of air flowing into the engine based on which the computer decides how much fuel to deliver. I would recommend replacing it with a new one.
Once you do you will most likely find lower fuel consumption, better driveability and one less thing ...

The mode is called limp mode.

I would try to dry out the engine bay. Also check for water in electrical connectors, wiring harnesses, MAF etc... If you had a bad ground somewhere water would certainly not help it.

Are you positive this problem did not exist BEFORE the engine bay wash?

You need to ...

I was on the fence between buying a 2012 S or SV. One of the high points of SV over S was climate control. Glad I went with the S.

Is there an audible parking brake indicator when moving on R51?
I see the light that turns on on the dashboard. I was wondering if there is a warning buzzer on higher end models (I have an S).

Also, how does the parking brake work? I am thinking that it is cable actuated and that it operates a ...

you may want to invest in some new battery terminals on the end of your cables. the ones that came on my truck are pretty wimpy and will be gone at next battery replacement.

Yeah, um, have to get the truck started to test under load, and I'm not walking it to Walmart :-P But with 12.6V I should ...

Thanks! partsweb says it is for Pathfinders made until Jan 2010. Mine is 05/2012 and it does have a different looking bumper. Not as boxy, more of a rounded design than what is shown in the pic. I will give it a shot with a local dealer and see what they say.

I also found a cargo cover you ...
