Nissan Pathfinder Real World MPG

Re: Nissan Pathfinder Owners: MPG-Real World Numbers [paisan]

Written by: villahidalgo on Feb 11, 2007 06:45 PM

A solid rear axle, and yet better ride than most car based SUVs. The armada is not a mid size SUV, so it is not really comparable to the 4runner, so why even bring it up? However, read any reviews on the Armada and it is usually on all the worst reliability full size SUV lists. Here is one of such lists from Consumer Reports: Least reliable (Worst score first) Nissan Armada ... Read More...

Real World Towing with the Pathfinder

Re: Travel trailer and the 2006 Pathfinder [trailerguy]

Written by: boda47 on Feb 07, 2007 08:20 PM

Thanks for the input, I will take your advice regarding the tow equipment. Anything bad to say about the Casita? I am looking at the 17'. Also, another question. The Nissan Pathfinder brochure states that it is 6,000 lbs. rated with a 7 pin wiring harness. The Pathfinder SE has a 4 pin harness. The dealer says that all I have to do is use a 7 pin plug that plugs into the ... Read More...

Nissan Pathfinder Noises and Sounds

Noisey limited slip rear differential

Written by: robh243 on Feb 06, 2007 03:45 PM

Anyone notice the sound that the Pathfinder (this case is a 2006) when the limited slip kicks in? What I'm being told is that this sound is normal but I see nothing from Nissan to assure me. Any thoughts out there? The sound is like gears meshing together and I have confirmed that it's the LSD because the "SLIP" light comes on at the time the noise occurs. Thanks for ... Read More...

Opening another window does not help, it gets louder. Nissan should be made aware of this problem. They should install wind deflectors on the rear windows and the fronts. I have a 2006 Pathfinder and this problem is a pain in the #@%&*! How can we get this Problem sent to Nissan. Anyone know? Read More...

Real World Towing with the Pathfinder

Re: Travel trailer and the 2006 Pathfinder [boda47]

Written by: trailerguy on Jan 26, 2007 05:06 PM

We finally got out in mid-January and again this past week. This was all dry camping and much of it was on poor back roads (i. e. unpaved). Since we also use the "Pathy" in pretty real outback, I am in favor of 4WD and use the LO range a bit. For pulling the TT 2WD would by just fine on the highway and any paved or level unpaved roads. it will also free up a few lbs. of towing ... Read More...

Yep! Toyota revised their HP ratings for the 2006 model year. 236 V6 and 260 V8, compared to 245 and 270 in 2005. Based on that, Toyota was fudging just a wee bit more than Nissan. ;) Read More...

Written by: Car_man on Jan 23, 2007 03:42 AM

Hello kh_edmunds. These trucks' lease payments will depend upon what sort of selling price you are able to negotiate on them. For now I will assume that you were able to negotiate a $2,000 discount on these trucks. For feedback on how much you should pay for them make sure to stop by the following discussion: "Nissan Pathfinder: Prices Paid & Buying Experience". ... Read More...

Nissan Pathfinder Tire Pressure Monitor

Re: 2006 Nissan pathfinder/frustrated [geetha]

Written by: rookmaster on Dec 27, 2006 08:31 PM

I exactly had that same "tire pressure" problem on my 2006 Pathfinder. When it first appeared, knowing that the problem is not that bad, I disregarded if for over a week. Then, one time, I did a hi-way driving and the pressure light disappeared. I thought that the problem was gone. The following day, that low-tire pressure light appeared again. I checked the pressure ... Read More...

I called Nissan and left a message on Friday 12/15/06 and was unable to answer when the Nissan representative returned my call later in the morning (10:00am).

Hopefully, someone will respond to ... Read More...
