pictures as promised.

got it. Looks good. well packaged and radiator cap fits no issues. Looks the same as original.
Looking at instructions, doesn't seem too difficult to do the swap.
What coolant fluid do you recommend ? Nissan oem ?

According to fedex, I will have it on Saturday. I'll take pictures and post them here. I'll have my mechanic do the swap.
"Cheap" insurance. I'd rather blow a cheaper radiator than a transmission..

Still no recall from Nissan on that known issue..crazy..

I'm putting one of those new valued Nissan OEM radiator in mine.
I really love the Pathy so I don't feel like blowing a transmission.

V8Pathy

beside the hissing noise...do you experience a sudden loss in power ?

V8Pathy

good to know. thanks for the info

V8Pathy

thanks. I ordered the OEM valued radiator and 4 OEM seals off ebay.
I'll take that to my local dealership to have them install it.
came out to $264 shipped for all the ebay parts.

V8Pathy

thanks.

Nissan sells a new cheaper OEM version that fits the 2008 V8.

B1D60-EA21JNW

$220 shipped on ebay.

thanks.

V8Pathy

V8Pathy

thanks. Do I still need to do the bypass with the new radiator ?

V8Pathy

I also have a 2008 V8.

will the new radiator B1D60-EA21JNW fix the issue ? Did they reroute the coolant tubes differently ?

ebay has them for $220 shipped.

thanks

I have a 2008 V8 with 77,000 miles. I had the extended warranty 7years/100K but it expired recently (7 years mark).
I checked the radiator P/N and it is one of the bad ones.
For the peace of mind, I'm thinking of having the radiator fixed before it's too late...Can a Nissan dealership do it ? Do ...

just saw yours is 2008 too. Most likely dead battery.
I advice you change all 4 at the same time. Costco tire shop knew how to pair the new sensors with my car.

V8Pathy

how old is your PAthy ?reason I ask is i went though the same last year. One sensor died ( PF is 2008 and that was same location as you . front right.
