I ordered three pairs of these: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B006R0XYGY/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00 Like 'em a lot...very "white" light, brighter than stock but not so obnoxiously bright that I can't use them while driving. I do a lot of night time mountain bike riding with the bike and...

If you're going to spend $139 at Best Buy and have the radio pulled out anyway, why not just buy a new radio with an AUX and/or USB port?

Stock radio is awful for sound quality anyway, try Crutchfield for the latest deals.

I only got a few minutes this morning to check things out and discovered that the U-joint for the forward drive shaft near the transfer case has some play in it. Not sure if that was enough to cause the vibration I was feeling, though it has to replaced anyways. I will check the ball joints next af...

Check page PR-4 in the service manual posted in the forum. Runout limit is 0.6mm or 0.024 inches. Also the manual says to check it on the vehicle...

Not sure if they changed this from one model year to another but in my 2011, of the two dash outlets, the top one is switched, the bottom one is always hot. The outlet in the arm rest storage compartment is switched and the one in the rear cargo area is always hot. p Ah...you may be right. One of m...

Center console between the seats or center in the dash? Between the seats is easy - pull up the fascia over the top of the drink holders, then pop up the centerpiece around the shifter, back end first. Beyond that depends on where you want to go and what you want to do. I'm assuming you're running s...

Re: Opening center/shift console

Looking for an instructional on how to remove the center console from my 2011 PF. There is a rattle somewhere in there that I'd like to investigate, but can't seem to find a service manual or youtube video that applies. This was mine: http://www.thenissanpath.com/viewtopic.php?t=5269&highlight=...

That sounds simple enough to do. I will give it a check this morning when I get off of work. I keep getting suggestions that the tires are most likely out of balance. I haven't had tires be perfectly in balance at low speeds and then out of balance at higher speeds. Is that a possible factor here? ...

Re: Ticking, rubbing or scraping when car slows down

Metal or plastic noise? In time with wheel speed or something faster like the engine, transmission, fan or a pump?

Something that's leaning forward under braking and back under acceleration perhaps...

Re: reply

Just went over to Carid.com and found Daystar sway bar bushings and Daystar end links. Does anyone know the size I need??? There are many options. The Prothane front sway bar bushings are part number 14-1123. I'll know a suitable replacement size for the rear by this weekend when I get under my tru...

What's a good way to check the U-joints to see if they are good or bad? Unfortunately I don't have the funds to start replacing every part until it's fixed. The quick test is to grab the shaft near the U-joint and try to shake it laterally and check for play. When I started getting the 60-80 mph ru...

The front end links are K80470 and K80471 - found lots of places that sell them, bought mine from Amazon. The only weird part is they look completely different. But, eh, it's what everyone else is putting in on all of the Nissan forums. The rear end links are K750037 and K750038. It took some diggin...

Score! Thanks! They had a couple on close out for $25. I bought both, I'll have the one replaced and just hold the other for the next time. B-)

Dunno if my scan tool will work with TPMS, but definitely worth checking out...
