You weren't the only one off-road last weekend.

My '08 had the fuel level sender replaced under a recall. It wasn't even bad.

It sounds like the range fork was stuck in Neutral between high and low. I haven't had it happen on the PF, but it does give a good crunch when shifting in and out of low range. The clunck clunck you heard was probably it finally shifting back to high range. On tranfer cases in the old days, you had...

Have you turned on the AC and seen if the compressor spins? Does the AC click on with the defrost?

I throught the AC lines were two different sizes running to the rear while the coolant lines were both the same size. I have an "S" so I'm not familiar with those lines myself.

They usually use a cleaner when they do a flush. This may dislodge some of the debris. I have an old '79 F-150 with a C6 that had fluid in terrible shape that was brown with little black flecks in it. It was shifting a bit erratic every now and then. My mechanic flushed this tranny but recommended n...

Tech - I got the letter and the little sticker for the front of warrany book last week.

Is the radiator issue DEFINITELY only applicable to cars with automatic transmission? I have a manual gearbox R51 2.4SVE in the UK and was under the impression that they were also susceptible to this problem. Anyone know? I've personally never seen a manual tranny with a cooler. Checking the bottom...

I doubt your going to toast the transmission. The Titan and Armada have GCVWR about 4,000lbs heavier than ours. I haven't actually heard of anyone toasting one of these tranny from hard use. If it helps, this is only the 2nd tow vehicle I've even had that even has a lock-up converter. All the others...

I guess they have to go where the money is. We found the field a little limited for a true SUV even back in 2008. Nissan had a good line-up and we were choosing between an Xterra and Pathfinder(Armada is too big for us). All others had dropped off the list. We usually keep our vehicles for about 10 ...

I spoke with one retired transmission engineer back in the mid 90's, and another one hangs out on the Ford Truck forums. Both have said the same thing. The internal cooler never does warm up the fluid. It DOES cool the fluid even in the worst conditions as water to air coolers are highly efficient. ...

Gorgeous. We're going to have to move that one up on our list.

They must have made some changes as I am 6'4" and I didn't fit in the 4Runner. This was back in 2007 when we were making decisions. The 3rd row was hard to find in a 4Runner, and it was even tighter than the one in Pathfinder. The build quality was something was noticed right off. It well off o...

That's the same error that I got when installing a fan for my 2nd tranny cooler. The spinning fan caused voltage to keep the ECM "alive" after I turned off the key. I'm not sure where I found the reference, but that code was titled something like "general communication error". I ...

The '08 manual reads different.

08Datsun

I did the bypass a while ago on my '08. I haven't heard of a problem with any '08 PF, Xterra, or Frontier, but I'm not gambling with such an expensive transmission. I added a cooler while I was at it.
