Thanks for the post - I had read it before and wondered if that could have been the problem, but since i replaced the fan and had a different problem. Before it wasn't working at all on any speed, after it ran great but wasn't getting any volume out the vents. Went out into a snowy parking lot tonig...

Replaced blower motor, no air coming from front vents

Hey guys, hoping someone can help me out. I've been going through some heater problems on my 2005 LE, auto climate system. I'll put it in point form to make it easier to read. Hoping someone can help me out quickly because I need to take it on the highway in a week! - Everything worked fine one day ...

update - gave in and took the pathfinder to the shop when I got back to town. Turns out the problem was due to worn out u-joints. They did a check on the oil leak while it was in there and it turns out that a bunch of valves are passing oil. Fixed the joints and it sounds and feels great again. At $...

I looked all in under the engine. There's a bit of a stain around the oil filter but nothing more than typical from changing the filter myself. There are usually marks around the filler cap that make a mess of the area in the valve cover surrounding the coils. Neither of those areas would suggest 1L...

I bought some of the spark plug non fowlers and was disappointed to see that the ones I got were too small (14mm). The right size (18mm) are on order and I'll pick them up thursday. I'll have a good chance to test them out because as of my lunch break today one of my front cats is empty. The other o...

for anyone that is following along... Put the fender liners and wheels back on this morning and went for a quick test drive with no exhaust connected. I didn't feel any hesitation at high speeds, though it was a gravel road and it was of course loud so I can't be 100% sure. It would seem as though t...

Do any of your programmers have the ability to read / alter / disable signals from the rear o2 sensors? Have to do some work to the front cats which will end up throwing the SES light and reprogramming is a cheaper option than some other things i'm looking at. Do you guys use the stock tunes that co...

Also as previously mentioned, the PCV is on the passenger side of the valve cover. It's way back in by the firewall. I managed to get it out without removing more than the engine cover but it was a time consuming pain. Once you pull the hose off of it you'll see the green plastic sticking out about ...

I replaced the PCV about a year ago. The old one was certainly dirty, but performance didn't improve after replacing it. Unfortunately I don't have access to a backpressure gauge right now as I'm stuck at work in the middle of nowhere. I took off both rear cats, all four o2 sensors, and the driver's...

P0430 code and engine stumbles above 70km/h

Hey guys, getting a P0430 code. Normally I wouldn't think the cats are the problem, but I've got a serious oil burning problem. Some details: - 2005 Pathfinder, 180,000kms (115,000 miles) - uses 1L of oil every 2000kms driving and has been quite some time. Money is tight and I don't want to do a ful...
