My Pathfinder's not a Lemon after all.....

Well after a few arguments with the Dealer (Carline Automotive) I managed to get all my problems solved plus an apology from the owner for getting mad at me, I took the Pathfinder to Nissan on Wednesday and told them to go over the whole truck, they did a compression test checked the suspension, exhaust, all the fluids and flushed out the Tranny fluid, over all they told me the truck was in great shape inside and out for the year and km's, it does need a tune up, midpipe is starting to rot, and the stabilizer links are a little loose other than that its in good shape. I took it back to Carline Auto for them to check and refill the A/C fix a leak from the oil cooler, and the passenger front Bering needed to be greased.

I can now say that I am happy with my truck and I'll finally be able to enjoy it problem free..........for now.

What year is your Pathfinder? Do you experience the infamous "wobble" caused by the trailing arm bushings and causes the car to feel like its "wobbling" when driving? I had an 01 Pathfinder prior to the G and I had the problem I was describing. I also bought some polyurethane bushings to solve the problem I was describing, but ended up selling the car before I had the opportunity to installed them.

Hmmm no wobbling yet I'll have to keep an eye out for that.

Great news. Mine needed two tranny seals and some fluid. Nothing 3 bills wouldn't fix. Hope it ends there.
