#391 of 460 Re: 2007 Frontier, clutch out at 14,000 miles [mommamadsen] by asa Oct 10, 2007 (3:17 pm)
Replying to: mommamadsen (Oct 06, 2007 12:11 pm) I have only 9500 Miles on my '06 6-Speed and it shifts beautifully with no hint of clutch wear. I think I've read a few stories on forums, but they're usually attributable to smoking the clutch on wet boat ramps, tall offroad obstacles and new drivers not used to shifting. Time will tell with mine. I don't tow anything; mostly use mine for firewood, landscaping materials, plywood/lumber, furniture and family trips, so it's mot exposed to anything extreme. Best of luck with yours. Maybe you can negotiate some sort of a price break to ease the pain.
#393 of 460 Daytime Running Lights (DRL) by vtdog Oct 25, 2007 (10:24 am)
I am often in Canada where DRLs are required. I know Canadian models have DRLs standard. Does anyone know how (if?) a US model could be adapted to DRL, or if it is even possible without a ton of money being spent Replies to this message: rcourtna (Dec 13, 2007 9:04 pm) vtdog (Dec 17, 2007 4:56 pm) wvtassel (Jan 03, 2008 12:28 pm)
#394 of 460 Glad to be here and thanks! by mistermerlot Nov 02, 2007 (12:37 pm)
Hey folks! Just joined here and I own a 1995 Nissan 4WD 4 cyl. p/u which is experiencing the same "earthquake syndrome" posted earlier. I just tuned mine up and I guess I need to spend the extra bucks for "genuine Nissan" plugs and wires. Oh, great! I'll do that and hope it goes away. By the way, if the one writer still can't find his fuel filter, mine happened to be WAY UP on the passenger side of my engine in never-never land! Just the right spot to cause me to twist my arm in 18 different directions and cover me with gasoline!
#395 of 460 05 Frontier CC-transmission oil by richbf2 Nov 08, 2007 (10:52 am)
Hi all! has anyone had experience in replacing tran. oil in an 05 frontier? do i have to replace the filter as well? please share. How come nissan put a nut on a dipstick? No one is able to check for oil level unless one has to unscrew the nut. Thank you! Replies to this message: garyinfante (Dec 15, 2007 8:42 pm) asa (Dec 17, 2007 6:56 am)
#396 of 460 1989 D21 Nissan starter problem by tporter2 Nov 12, 2007 (6:08 pm)
The solenoid is staying engaged. Replaced starter as I thought the solenoid was bad. I still have the same result. At the time of purchase of the starter I also purchased a starter relay. The one I was given does not match anything on my truck. It is a large blue relay with a place for 2 separate connectors. After doing a site search, it looks like it may be a start/inhibit relay. My truck is a Smyrna built truck with an automatic transmission, so I think this relay must be for a standard trans equipped truck. My question is, can the relay stick and cause the run on problem? And where is the relay located for this truck? Thanks in advance.

Replying to: vtdog (Oct 25, 2007 10:24 am) Hello,   I know you posted this 2 years ago, but I'm hoping you'll come back and share what you ended up doing to get DRL on your Frontier. I've just received my '06 Frontier and am faced with the same issue in order to pass the federal inspection.   Thanks!

Replying to: richbf2 (Nov 08, 2007 10:52 am) I just was told today (while getting my oil changed) that the transmission is a selaed system and that any attempts to removed the "nut" and unseal the system voids your warranty.   I would contact your Nissan dealer to discuss thsi further but this is what an apparent seasoned mechanic told me today.

#399 of 460 2005 Nismo 4X4 King Cab - Acting Old by garyinfante Dec 15, 2007 (8:50 pm)
I have owned the vehicle in the title since it was new and now have about 18,500 miles on it.   I am generally happy with the vehicle experiencing 17-19 MPG fuel economy, plenty of get up and go, nice stereo, very nice interior styling.   What I am not so happy about is that it recently has started to behave as though it is much older than it is. It has lots of squeaks and other annoying noises. The most annoying item is that when you are at a stop light and are idling (but it it is in drive) it makes so much noise and rumbles so much that something really seems amiss. This behavior is not displayed every time you come to a stop but perhaps 10-20 percent of the time.   I plan to take it to a dealer as it is still well within the warranty period but before I do, was wondering if others have had any similar experiences and have any advice or information to add to the discussion.   Many thanks in advance for your help.

Replying to: garyinfante (Dec 15, 2007 8:50 pm) Does your engine idle speed vary and dip down below 800 when you notice the noisy rumble? Perhaps your throttle body is dirtied up, thus impeding a steady idle. Could be a tempermental injector too. If it's thrown a code, the dealer will pick it up.   I've not had this issue, but I have only 10,500 Miles on mine.
