Let's Play: Guess This Noise

Noticed this noise about 2 weeks ago and it's getting louder. It's a whirrrrrrrr noise that has a 1:1 rate increase/decrease with speed so I'm guessing wheel bearing or u joint. It's loudest between 40-55mph. There are vibrations in the steering wheel, gear selector and floor boards although "s...

I took a loot at Courtesy and Nissanpartsdeal and the tubes and muffler not including bolts and things is about $1500. Really wasn't expecting that. So, I'll continue to look around maybe some local shops.

Thanks. Should have said stock and have the V6. I'm looking for something to last another 100k miles and would prefer the stainless.

Exhaust Replacement

What are people doing for OE cat-back exhaust replacement? I have a couple leaks and it's about time.

Not interested in aftermarket/performance based systems.

Replaced Plugs at 112k

Just did this and I would like to share what the plugs looked like. Overall, they look good. No missing parts. Great job on NGK and Nissan for selecting them.

Took a break. I was stressing, overthinking and getting tunnel vision.

Went back and found a loose harness on the back of the intake more towards driver side. Didn't look it up but assume it's a fuel injector. Thanks for all the input.
