They typically make noise just before stoping and sometimes when coming to a slow moving stop (parking lots). I'd say I'm hearing it 90ish percent of the time but what's worse than hearing it, I can feel it. Not vibration but I can feel he grinding/ rubbing through the pedal. The pads were not chang...

Brake Grinding

I've been driving my 08 v8 LE 4x4 for a few months now. Happy with it other than the apparently normal rattles. When I first got it the brakes made a grinding (not high pitched squeal, more like a a rubbing growl) upon stopping. It was within the month warranty and the dealership said the pads were ...

Strange metallic dash rattle

New to this forum, as well as the world Pathfinders. Picked up an 08 V8 LE 4x4 @ 40k miles about 2 weeks ago. Aside from a slight metallic rattle behind the driver side temp adjust knob couldn't be happier. If I put pressure on the plastic beside it the rattle stops. I only really notice it when goi...

Thanks for all the replies and info. No I didn't get the V8 for mileage, got it for power. The slight rattle comes from right behind the driver side temp adjustment knob. It really only rattled over bumps/ rough roads (aka all roads in NC....). It's faint and to be totally honest almost sounds like ...

Was this warranty tacked on by nissan to the normal 60k powertrian warranty or is it something extra that must be purchased? I'm looking around to see what the part number of the new transmission is.

Thanks for the good information. I've read lots of things about radiator coolant getting into the transmission and basically frying them.... Nothing extremely conclusive though? Some say it's just the V6? Would I know I'm having problems by slipping/ hard shifts etc?

New V8 pathfinder owner.... Eternal premium fuel debate...

New to this forum, as well as the world Pathfinders. Picked up an 08 V8 LE 4x4 @ 40k miles about a week ago. Aside from a rattle or two could be happier with it. It's a real upgrade from the 94 passport I had.... This is also the 4th nissan I've owned, one actually being a Datsun. Anyway, my thought...
