Unless they're "universal lug" type wheels,they won't fit because the 2005 and later Pathfinders use a smaller bolt circle than earlier Nissans, like the Hardbodies and WD21/R50 Pathfinders. Stupid decision by Nissan, if you ask me!

Surprised that an LE doesn't have a Bose system; I'm pretty sure all US-built LE's have the Bose. Not relevant to yours, but a correction to an earlier post: VIN's that start with "5" are made in Canton, Mississippi, not Smyrna.

Today's drive belts use EDPM construction and don't show wear like Neoprene belts do...or "did"....years ago. They can last over 100,000 miles and show little signs of wear, unlike Neoprene belts which would last half that long. EDPM belts tend to wear on the sides of the rib without affec...

You need to replace the window regulator. The cable, nylon guides and metal track are all part of the assembly. Front regulators are readily available on the aftermarket, but rear regulators may be a little tougher to find. You may have to get one from Nissan. Yeah, it's tight, but not too bad of a ...

The "W" is a winter viscosity rating, so the "10W" is only a thicker viscosity at cold temperatures when compared to a "5W." That said, 5W30 is recommended by Nissan for all temperatures.

Looks good! FYI, that "hood fabric" is called the "flame arrestor."

Nissan parts:

999T8-R517P 7-Pin Tow Harness
24167-A6000 Wiring Harness - Vehicle Brakes to Trailer Brakes
25230-79964 6 pole relay

I also recommend the Airlift 1000's; well worth the price, especially when towing.

The TPS is part of the TAC (throttle control actuator), located at the front of the intake plenum. Even with the MIL "off," you still might want to check for stored trouble codes. Accelerating with the cruise "on" would not, or should not, cause a problem and if the cruise was se...

Those lines can be repaired in many cases, as opposed to replacing them and have to lift the body off of the frame...if that is what the problem is. Pressure testing is the way to go at this point.

It's likely to vacuum hose to the fuel pressure regulator located at the end of the fuel rail at the back side of the engine. Disconnected, it will cause the fuel system to run at full, unregulated pressure.

2002 Pathy's don't have timing belts. It sounds to be like you have a faulty fan clutch. At highway speeds, the air forced through the radiator core alone is sufficient to cool the engine's coolant. When a vehicle is under high load, standing still or at low speeds, the fan clutch will start to enga...

Yeah...inside the canister is a foam liner that contains the charcoal. Sometimes they break and tiny pits of charcoal can get sucked all the way up to the intake manifold in some circumstances. This can jam the purge control valve and contaminate everything else on the vacuum line circuit of the Eva...

There is no code specifically for a faulty gas cap; likely you have an Evap system leak code, which "could" be caused by a faulty gas cap, along with a number of other reasons (faulty vent control valve, leaking hose or fuel sender "O" seal, to name a couple). If you are experien...

If it's a 2000, then you should have the VG33E. First thing to figure out if it is not starting due to a lack of fuel or lack of ignition. Assuming you've already checked to make sure the plugs/wires/cap & rotor are in good condition, using a timing light to check for spark when the "no sta...
