mines got 105K and no real issues. I looked on rock Auto and the Front L and R CATS are about $190 each, the under cat is the same if I am reading the parts correctly. If they don't have the underneath CAT I am sure a universal will fit under there. My code reader reads Pending codes, these do not t...

there are codes and pending codes.
Most readers will read the pending codes as well. I would check this out.

So the problem is constant, I don't have any idea what the wining noise could be.

Re: 01 Pathfinder 4x4 looses power

Today I was driving along the freeway. I went to pass someone and all of a sudden my 01 PF 4x4 lost power. By lost power, I mean would not accelerate past 30 miles an hour and gets there very slowly. This is not a situation where I "need a tune up" or "better gas". Something hap...

The power valve improves torque and HP both by varying the intake runner length.

The swirl valves swirl the intake charge at part throttle to minimize pre-ignition and allow a leaner mixture.

what exactly is a power valve or swirl valve? The power valve is in the intake, consists of six butterfly's. The Nissan engines Pathy, Altima maxima etc have had an issue with the power valve screws coming out and damaging the engine. You WILL NOT have that. If you want to know more there are stick...

it shifts real good altho i think the syncro between 3rd and 4th is wearing out because if you try to shift it in any kind of hurry, it will grind. shift slow and it's smooth as silk. I would suggest you change the gearbox Oil ASAP to synthetic made for Syncro boxes. I used Redline MT90 in my other...

I am concerned you have now over filled the transfer case.
I recommend you pull fill plug with the vehicle level and let any excess run out.

BTW I don't encourage drilled rotors, slotted or solid are fine.
The EBC's are what I found quickly at a fair price.
