So, here's an interesting development. I just got back from a trip to Park City, Utah, and used the auto climate control for most of the time. When I left Las Vegas in the morning on my way there, it was a cold 35 degrees, and of course the Pathfinder was cooking me out set all the way down to 65 d...

Mine have never been accurate and the pressure displayed changes based on many factors, including temperature, speed, and the location of Mars in relation to Mercury. My digital gauge will say 35psi all the way around while the screen ranges from 31psi to 38psi. While the sensors are inaccurate in w...

Yep, I have to do this every year to get my rear heat to work for the winter.

[/quote] You can get the PF into recirculate if you change the mode to dash then hit recirculate. Temp doesn't matter. But when you run up on one of these bro-dozers with their diesel smoke rolling out, it's tough to hit the right combination of buttons fast enough.[/quote] Ah, good call—you're tota...

I mounted some just behind the sunroof and thought they looked good. I ran a powder coated steel bar from rail to rail. You had to close the sunroof shade when they were on to keep them from lighting the cabin up like the sun. I ultimately moved them to the bull bar because they were so bright that ...

Yeah, one of those features where they meant well but didn't quite hit the mark. I'd much rather go back to manual. On mine, I've discovered that, even in manual mode, the temperature of the air coming out of the vents is always in auto based on the temperature in the cabin. For example, if your sys...

Look for uneven wear. Particularly cupping http://www.procarcare.com/includes/content/resourcecenter/encyclopedia/ch25/25readtirewear.html. Tire cupping is one of the more common culprits of speed-related humming sounds and road vibrations. Unless it's really bad, it's often difficult to spot with a...

Sounds simple but have you checked your tires? Rotate them and see if the sound moves. Check the hubs while you have the truck jacked up.

I drive a lot of curvy/hilly back roads and the V6 felt more agile to me Funny, I was going to write that but decided to leave it out for the sake of not getting too wordy. The V6 is definitely more fun on curvy country roads. The V8 is a champ if you do a lot of highway driving. As for gas mileage...

I own the V8 and drive the V6 on occasion. The V8 does feel heavier. Not sure if it's the weight of the engine itself as much as the overall feeling of the drivetrain and the upgraded rear end. There may also be some psychological factors in play from the sound and response of the drivetrain. The V6...

Three things to check: 1. Open the hatch and check the two screws on the bottom that hold the latch mechanism in place. I think they're 10mm or something. Mine used to come loose until I put thread locker on them. 2. If you have the cinch motor ('08 & '09), make sure it's cinching. A dying motor...

It's on the cowl in front of the windshield. Black grille. Cabin air filter is a solid start. Go to an auto parts store and buy two cans of AC duct cleaner (IDQ is a good brand). It's a stronger version of Lysol and works much better. Treat it twice--one can now and once again in two weeks. This usu...

^ Exactly what he said. I have a V8 LE and love it (got mine from Carmax, too). I drive a friend's V6 occasionally and, aside from the "stuff" (leather, features, etc.), the V8 is a completely different driving experience. It feels bigger, heavier, more refined, more powerful, and smoother...

I bought a kit from SuperBrightLEDs.com and love 'em. The kit came with front, middle and cargo bulbs. Took me a while to get used to them because they're insanely bright (about three times brighter than tungsten). When I open the door at night, the inside of the truck lights up like the surface of ...
