#47 of 55 2000 Nissan Frontier belt tension pulley by bdl1 Apr 14, 2009 (4:45 am)
I took the belt tension /idler pulley off but some of the parts fell and I cant seem to get it back together correctly. My first attempt was too close to the pulley bracket. I also think i am missing a washer somewhere. Does anyone have a good picture of the pulley assembly(pulley,bushing,beveled spacer or washer,adjusting bolt)? Thanks

#50 of 55 2002 Nissan Frontier rear shakes by jgs15 May 17, 2009 (9:32 pm)
I have a '02 Frontier desertrunner kingcab. The bed shakes bad on uneven roads. I had the propeller, u-joints, and carrier bearing checked already and was told everything was ok. A mechanic said that this was common with frontiers. Is that true?   And has someone been able to solve the problem or at least minimize the shaking/vibration? I'd appreciate any info or suggestions.   Thanks.

Replying to: sd296 (May 17, 2009 3:43 pm) You may not have one. It is standard on Frontier LE and Pro-4X Off-Road but is an option on the rest. I have an 09 SE and the cabin filter was not on the list of equipment on the window sticker and when I hit 15K miles and had the air filter changed, my Nissan Tech told me I didn't have the Cabin Filter option on my truck.   Maybe you don't either.

Replying to: sd296 (May 17, 2009 3:43 pm) I'm uncertain about the '01s, but in my '06 SE (which *does* have a cabin filter), it's accessed via a glove compartment (the 2nd Gens have two glove compartments). Your '01 owner's manual should outline how to work the replacement if indeed you have a filter. Good luck in your search.
#53 of 55 regular or premium or both by beaulac May 27, 2009 (8:17 pm)
I am looking to purchace a 2009 nissan frontier they recommend premium gas but can I use regular without damaging the truck and voiding warranty it plays a big part in my decision with gas going up Replies to this message: asa (May 28, 2009 4:54 pm)
#54 of 55 Re: regular or premium or both [beaulac] by asa May 28, 2009 (4:54 pm)
Replying to: beaulac (May 27, 2009 8:17 pm) Yes, many owners use 87 Octane with no problems. Nissan has actually changed up the verbiage on the owner's manual. In the '05 and '06 manuals it reads that 87 Octane is fine, but they changed it to the verbiage you read in '07 (I think) despite there being no changes whatsoever to the engine or fuel system.   I sometimes get a wee bit of random, very light pinging at about 35 MPG under a light throttle running 87 Octane especially when I buy the occasional tank of no-name gas. It's light enough and brief enough that you cannot hear it unless the windows are down. I never hear pinging at any other time.   Good question you ask. Some people don't care about the extra cost of premium fuel, but I do. I am amazed at the number of modern vehicles in the U.S. that require it these days.
