2005 pathfinder P0300 code after went in the ditch . Snow covered road , could not see the edge of the road , tow truck pulled me out no problem . Had some snow on the engine ( lightly covered ) , Left it in the heated garage for 2 days with a fan on the engine . Now I'm getting the P0300 error code . Ideas , the vehicle ran 100 % before this ,,,,
Thanks

Is the truck actually running rough? I threw that code when I SeaFoamed it, but reset it and it never came back. Try resetting the code to see if that helps. Might be able to get the tech at AutoZone to do it for you. You can also unhook the battery and let things drain out overnight.

I reset the code with my code reader , It will return when the check engine light starts to flash and the engine slows down .

Not sure but all is OK after I cleaned the MAF sensor ..

Glad you got it working. Makes me wonder now if the airbox and piping are sealed tightly or the bump of the ditch knocked some dust/dirt loose from the air filter and it just so happened to get on the MAF sensor.
