I test drove 3 R51s before I purchased the one I have. All 4 of them will automatically display “4” as soon as I switch from D to manual mode irrespective of 2H, 4H, 4Lo. The being said, if I drive reasonably, I can get it to shift at about the same time I move the lever (I.e. little to no delays). ...

Good to know - thanks SMJ for all your advise. My biggest worry with draining the coolant is that the drain plug is from the calsonic radiator and the radiator itself is a TYC. When put this plug in, it felt a little tighter than what it “felt” on the Calsonic radiator. I drove it for 40 miles yeste...

Yikes! It’s what I figured. I switched the radiator with the TYC one. The radiator itself is comparable to the Calsonic one that came out of the car. But the little drain plug from TYC was absolutely garbage. It started leaking as soon as the system pressured and when I turned the screw a smidge (le...

Turns out I just had to drive like 20feet and the VDC light turned off. So all good there. I had bought the fan clutch from AM Auto and they sent me a replacement unit that gets here tomorrow. I’ll post back on what the results are. Is there any way at all to check the clutch prior to putting it on ...

Perfect, thank you for the very detailed response! I ended up buying the TYC radiator off RA since it was lifetime warranty and only 8 bucks more than the CSF plastic/aluminum radiator which has 2 years warranty. Also going to replace the radiator hoses while I’m in there. Is there a reason why my V...

So the radiator definitely has a very slow leak. Are the TYC radiators from RA any good? It’s got lifetime warranty. Or the radiator from 1A auto which has lifetime warranty as well? If not, I’ve heard CSF radiators are good and they are on RA with 2 years warranty. Are any of the above acceptable? ...

Universal joint and short sockets did the trick. Didn’t see any coolant leaks from the radiator after running the truck for 25 mins while burping the cooling system. However, the replacement aftermarket fan clutch is worse than the one I took off!!!! It roars really really loudly constantly. The old...

Thanks Smj!! The brake bleeder hoses are 7/32”. Except due to the corrosion on the bleeders, I sprayed them with PB blaster and put a wrench on there and the things dissolved. On 3 of the calipers the rust just dissolved with a very tiny amount of torque on the wrench. So I’ve given up on that endea...

I would change them out. And don't forget the t-case fluid (which is the same as the ATF). For transmission and t-case, I used Valvoline Maxlife ATF (drain and re-fill). For the rear diff, 75w90 synthetic and 80w90 (although I believe you can use 75w90 too) for the fronts. Folks around here generall...

I’m planning on getting some maintenance done and out of the way before winter kicks in. Last week’s cold was a reminder of what’s coming my way brrrrr. I had a few questions. The Pathy is at 101k miles: 1. For a 2011, should I stick with the laser iridium NGK 93759 or will the ruthenium NGK 96355 a...

No love? Am I the only wanting to have a heated steering wheel amongst those without a LE?

brickbox

So, after many months of just putzing around town in the Pathy (thanks Covid!), I am getting restless at tackling a project and am toying with the idea of adding heated steering wheel to my Silver edition 2011 Pathy. Coming fresh off the install of heated seats in my other car for the upcoming cold ...

Congrats on the purchase. I am curious to see how you plan to fix the frame rust.
Will you be documenting it here?

brickbox

Looks sharp. I definitely think the contrast pops on a lighter color like silver.

Bump! Seems like 25560-ZL05A will also fit.
