Replying to: july2004quest (Oct 04, 2006 8:54 am) I haven't seen a portable cesium clock yet, but you can get one for your home that resets itself several times daily on a radio signal from the atomic clock in Colorado. But: does anybody really know what time it is? We've all got time enough to cry... all got time enough to die... Ben |

Replying to: cirruss (Oct 04, 2006 7:44 am) The thing you have to consider is do you want them ripping open the dash to replace the clock that will still run fast? Or can you live with arriving at your destination 2-3 minutes ahead of time? |

I've noticed that the ngine air filter on our '04 gets dirty unusually fast. Our driving conditions are not dirty at all. At the rate it gets dirty, I figure it would need replacement on a quarterly basis. At $10 a pop from the dealer for an air filter, I've decided to try the Fram Air Hog ($43). Cleaning this filter 4 times a year will have it paid for itself in just over a year. We'll see if this filter affects gas mileage. Has anyone else observed this issue with their engine air filter, especially those who are getting poor gas mileage? |

| Well went to the dealer today, and the service guy first said they need couple hours to diagnose. After waiting for half an hour, the service advisor told me the mechanic set the clock to their "SYSTEM" clock and ask that I come back in 2 weeks and see how much it changed. If it's outside the Nissan spec, then they will replace the clock. I will be back in 2 weeks and see what they have to say. | |

Yes, the filter in teh Quest gets dirty very quickly and that's because the air inlet is right below the hood. As long as you are moving forward, you will be sucking in everthing that comes your way. Last year, I ended up replacing it with a K&N filter (33-2031-2) which is good forever. You don't need to wash & oil 4 times a year. Just periodically remove it and tap the dirt out. With the K&N, you can probably just do a wash&oil once a year. By the way, our filter is the same one used on MANY other nissan cars.

Replying to: cirruss (Oct 05, 2006 10:01 pm) Interesting that this filter is used on many Nissans. It makes sense now that the filter was available in Air Hog and K&N. They're not available for everything. How has your gas mileage been since going with the K&N? |

It's not going to really change your gas mileage. I am driving it like normal - don't notice any better or worst. Here is the K&N website for our filter: http://www.knfilters.com/search/product.aspx?Prod=33-2031-2 Here is just a sample of all the Nissan cars using the same filter (there is more earlier models but don't want to do this massive post): 2006 NISSAN X-TRAIL 2.5L L4 F/I - All 2006 NISSAN X-TRAIL 2.2L L4 DSL - All 2006 NISSAN X-TRAIL 2.0L L4 F/I - All 2006 NISSAN SENTRA 2.5L L4 F/I - All 2006 NISSAN SENTRA 1.8L L4 F/I - All 2006 NISSAN QUEST 3.5L V6 F/I - All 2006 NISSAN MURANO 3.5L V6 F/I - All 2006 NISSAN MAXIMA 3.5L V6 F/I - All 2006 NISSAN ALTIMA 3.5L V6 F/I - All 2006 NISSAN ALTIMA 2.5L L4 F/I - All 2006 NISSAN 350Z 3.5L V6 F/I - All 2006 INFINITI G35 3.5L V6 F/I - All 2006 INFINITI G35 3.5L V6 F/I - All 2006 INFINITI FX35 3.5L V6 F/I - All 2005 NISSAN X-TRAIL 2.5L L4 F/I - All 2005 NISSAN X-TRAIL 2.2L L4 DSL - All 2005 NISSAN X-TRAIL 2.0L L4 F/I - All 2005 NISSAN TERRANO LL 2.4L L4 F/I - All 2005 NISSAN SENTRA 2.5L L4 F/I - All 2005 NISSAN SENTRA 1.8L L4 F/I - All 2005 NISSAN QUEST 3.5L V6 F/I - All 2005 NISSAN MURANO 3.5L V6 F/I - All 2005 NISSAN MAXIMA 3.5L V6 F/I - All 2005 NISSAN ALTIMA 3.5L V6 F/I - All 2005 NISSAN ALTIMA 2.5L L4 F/I - All 2005 NISSAN 350Z 3.5L V6 F/I - All 2005 INFINITI G35 3.5L V6 F/I - All 2005 INFINITI G35 3.5L V6 F/I - All 2005 INFINITI FX35 3.5L V6 F/I - All 2004 NISSAN XTERRA 3.3L V6 F/I - S/C 2004 NISSAN XTERRA 3.3L V6 F/I - exc.

We've got 66,000 miles on our '04. I just got a great deal on some Quaker State synthetic oil. Has anyone tried synthetic in their Quest?
