Where is the front diff vent tube suppose to attach at? I noticed when I had my up to rotate the tires and do a little looking around, that my was hanging down. Didn't know if it was pulled loose when I had the dealer replace the front sway bar bushings while they were replacing my transmission shif...

When I purchased my 08 SE, I noticed that my sub didn't work. Found a fuse that was blown. Replaced fuse and works GREAT ever since but, I don't crank the volume up much. I like the hearing I currently have left. :D

I actually have a set on my wife's 05 Chevy Trailblazer. The first set we had on there lasted her about 70K+. They wear really well and are a nice ride for the trailblazer.

Mine is installed finally, got around to it this morning, then took a brief 5 miler.. Like everyone else, money VERY well spent... in shock actually because I didn't think airbags could do this.. I thought I'd be bouncy (I'm at 10.2 psi (digital gauge)). Going to ramp up to 12 tomorrow for the 75 m...

Quick update... After looking around on Frontier forums it became apparent that this issue is not that uncommon. I picked up a pair of Moog end-links (a little beefier than OEM stuff) and installed them - so far the problem has not manifester it self. I tried duplicating all the conditions when the...

Check your CV axles. They will tick when they are starting to wear out.

The resounding answer seems to be no. I finally got around to swapping the OEM bushings. The new ones are a little different and supposed to be better from a durability standpoint. The material seems to be identical but the joint is in a different location. Nice improvement though...just drove in o...

Mine has been doing the same thing with shuddering at 60mph and will not up shift unless you mash the gas. Fluid is fine. Went to a tranny shop they told me to take it to dealer. Did you take it to the dealer? I took mine to the dealer for it doing the shuddering at 40mph and they told me it was a ...

Any other advice and or assistance would be GREATLY appreciated. before you do anything else, no matter what anyone has told you, verify that your ATF is not coolant contaminated because if it is, it's in Nissans lap, which is exactly where you want it to be at this point (should radiator failure/c...

33k miles? thats like what 50,00KM roughly? Lowest i've heard is around 80,000Km. My trans died at just under 100,000KM (60,000 Miles) so at 33k? like others said, possible but unlikely That is what I was thinking. But, I know that dealers tell you one thing and if it doesn't fix the problem, then ...

I doubt it. Dealers seem to be ignorant of the trans problems on these trucks. most likely a contamination issue. either they are ignorant of a very important extended warranty related issue or, more likely, they play ignorant as part of the customer run-around to avoid a very time consuming job th...
