I think what lionbull is describing is what I'm experiencing (described in another post). It's like the springs are too stiff and there's not enough give... you feel every single bump and fault in the road, right?
Thanks much for all the advice. I'm going to swap the struts and see how it feels. Still experimenting with the airbag pressure. When I think about it, two things that are probably adding to the harsh ride is the 18" rims (less tire sidewall) and the added weight of the V8. The truck I drove ha...
Ah, gotcha. I'm wondering if the springs and shocks are the same.
I took it to the dealer and a tire place, both said everything looked normal. I got the AirLift 1000, which nicely lifts the rear, but it also makes the rear feel a little more sensitive and bouncy.
I see a lot of posts where people justify the Pathfinder's violent ride by saying it's a truck. So every time I drive through town and look at my kids in the rearview mirror being tossed around like rag dolls, I think to myself, "Okay, it's supposed to be like this because it's a truck." T...
Anyone know where to get horizontal MightyMounts for the '05+ Pathfinder? Every parts place sells rack accessories (like the AnkleBiter roof rack) that require the horizontal MightyMounts...which do not exist.
I have a VW and there's no shortage of online parts suppliers. Last weekend I bought a rearview mirror, OEM brake rotors, performance shocks, power window switch and an air injection pump... all from ONE place. I can not seem to find such a place for my Pathfinder. The only thing I've found is "...
Great, that's what I was wondering - if it's a switch or something in the motor. Anyone know how to pop that switch out? Is it a 'remove the whole door panel' thing or does that trim just pop off? That lock button locks all windows except the driver's -- even on the driver's window switch panel. Tha...
So I'm sitting in traffic when all of a sudden my passenger window starts freaking out. It automatically rolls down 3/4 of the way, pauses, and then back up to almost shut, then all the way down, then half way shut, and so on...up and down. By itself. I can make it stop by engaging the window lock b...
Thank you so much for the detailed reply! I love this forum, especially compared to the VW forums (for my wife's car), where they only want to talk about loud exhausts and how low they can get 'em. :) Okay, so I think I'm going to wait until I hit 80K miles when the warranty expires and then look in...
Hi guys, Just bought an '08 V8 Pathfinder and just spent what seems like 5 hours reading through transmission/radiator posts in different forums. Here are some questions I have to which I didn't find answers: 1. Have the radiators been improved since the warranty extension? In other words, if I go t...
Just bought an '08 V8 LE and have 30 days to make a list of everything that's wrong with it before the warranty expires.
Does the rear AC have a separate compressor or does it run off of the front compressor? The rear AC doesn't get very cold so I want to have that looked at.
