2003 Nissan Xterra XE - 2WD

Written by: dzuba on Aug 07, 2008 05:36 AM

Considering buying this for my 16yr old...........w/94K miles on it for 5K. Not sure if I will as it does not have side air bags. I used to have a 98 Maxima that ran forever and was very reliable. Any thoughts on the reliability of this model, and specific issues/parts inherent to the 03 Xterra? Read More...

Nissan Xterra Maintenance and Repair

fuel level sending unit...

Written by: rockhead911 on May 12, 2008 02:35 PM

If you have a fuel gauge that doesn't go up to full after you fill your tank coupled with a "Service Engine Soon" MIL on your console, the problem is probably an error code PO463. This is the fuel level sending unit. It's a common to very common issue with the Xterra at around 40k miles. Mine went bad on a cross country trip at 39980 miles. No, it's not covered beyond the ...

I just bought a 2003 XTerra XE, power windows and locks with 25,700 miles for $16,500. It was about $1200 less than the KBB rating. I feel I got a good eal but then later on I was looking in at the dealer's web site and the car I bought was still isted as an "internet" price of about 1 grand less. I wonder if the internet price was a ploy to get people to come in, because none ... Read More...

2005 Xterra Questions from a Pathfinder owner

Written by: mbunting on Jun 03, 2005 04:41 AM

hello all.... I'm a habitual PF owner (Previously owned a 2001 LE) and currently own a 2003 LE. I'm LOVING the looks on the new Xterra (and also the new Pathy) and am contemplating purchasing another one sometime this summer. I just can't decide if I want to stay with the Pathy or step (a bit?) down to the Xterra. Some Q's on the Xterra: Moon Roof: Can you see anything ... Read More...

Side air bags

Written by: jcliffro on Jul 09, 2003 03:55 PM

I wonder what percentage of Xterras are being manufactured with the optional side air bags? I would venture to guess it is below 5%. I did an internet search within 100 miles of New Orleans and only found one Xterra in dealer inventory with side air bags. I hope the Insurance Institute's recent findings on how poorly most smaller SUVs did in a side impact when not ... Read More...

Xterra-ble Update!

Written by: m1garand on Mar 11, 2003 01:04 PM

Follow up to my post #2290, 21 Feb 2003. My 2002 Xterra still sits awaiting another engine. After numerous calls to Nissan in Calif. over the last month I got no place, it was almost as if the Cust. Rep. used a recording? Weekly calls and visits to the dealer were sympathetic and reassuring at best, but no real answers other than to be patient and Nissan would make good. ... Read More...
