I've heard of them failing on every year of the 2005-2010 range. If he thinks it only affects the first couple of years, ask him why Nissan put the radiator warranty extension up to 2010 models?Kestral wrote: I am trying to talk my friend into doing the radiator by-pass now but some auto tek told him it was only the first two years that are affected but I insist he is wrong.
$4,500 is a complete anomaly and something weird had to be at play. I was offered $9,000 trade for mine (with 130k miles) on a below invoice deal awhile back, so reasonable private party is around $10k.dlillo wrote:Wow, 4500? I can't hope to match that.
Everything we are seeing within 100 miles is '05-'08 for $9K-15K. But I am not really looking at private sales. Those deals are probably better.
Personally I just sold mine due to age, not because there was anything wrong with it. At ~10 years I trade in for something with 3-5 years on it, but I do this because I feel that after 10 years, you have a higher chance for repairs.dlillo wrote:We are looking and there seem to be a lot of '05 Pathfinders for sale. Is that normal for all vehicles at 10 years or are the '05 Pathfinders in particular starting to fall apart? Most of them have between 110-145,000 miles so I would assume they still have some life in them. (other than the radiator problem)
