Discussion Looking at buying a 2010 Xterra

1 Upvotes

Hey yall. Never owned a Nissan, and I'm looking at a 2010 Xterra 4x4 with 87k miles. I'm here to see if anyone can tell me about general reliability and any known issues with this model year. It looks like the majority of reported issues are with the 2nd gen Xs manufactured before late 2010, and this one has a manufacture date of 11/2009. Is it worth going out of my way to find a newer one? Any info is appreciated.

Discussion Help with a titan swap

2 Upvotes

If I were to do a titan swap up front I would gain around 3 inch’s of stance on each side, so 6 total. Would you really have to run 3 inch spacers in the rear? Or is it better to just do a titan axle swap because that’ll be a bit more work then I was thinking. And should I do stock titan uca, lca, and everything else or should I splurge more on a z1 titan swap components?

Technical Question Rear Main Seal

1 Upvotes

I'm replacing my clutch and replacing rear main in my 2000 V6 manual, I don't have a lot of options near me and I really need to get this done soon. Is OEM a must? Or would a set from Fel Pro do the job just fine?

Technical Question Smoke from engine bay on the way to work

Post image
6 Upvotes

Was driving into work this morning and thought I saw some smoke in my rear view mirror, it was overcast so thought maybe it could be the air. Once I pulled into work, I started smelling something and looked at the hood, smoke coming from the sides. I opened up the hood and saw this.

I’m going to go check the coolant tank once it cools down and see if it leaked out, but literally got it serviced 2 weeks ago.

Any thoughts on what could be wrong?

Any

Technical Question 2012 front suspension squeek while braking

2 Upvotes

I installed an Ironman lift kit on my Xterra a while ago. Not a big lift. Maybe 2 inches taller at most. Shortly after the install I noticed a squeek coming from the front suspension while braking. I can't tell if it's on the driver, passenger side, or both. It only happens if I'm breaking while going over bumps. Even hard braking on a smooth road produces no squeek. I checked the torque of all the front suspension fasteners. Every was within spec. Does anyone have any tips on what might be causing it and how I can address the squeek?

SOLVED! Audio - Pulling my hair out.

1 Upvotes

New to the group, so, hello!

I'm at a loss with my wife's 2012 Xterra S. When using the aftermarket pioneer stereo from 0 to roughly 20-25ish volume, it works fine. Anything above that, it'll run for a few, then shut down. It'll then power off and on sporadically.

After turning the truck off and back on, it resets. Sometimes in a few minutes, sometimes the next day. I've replaced the head unit and checked... 3 or 4 different fuses. The new head unit has been taken out and reinstalled to insure its wired in correctly.

My wife is about to cancel my oxygen subscription if I don't figure this out... 🤣 HELP!!!

Thanks, lol.

Hit a local pull-and-save…. Needed a visor and some of hardware for two …. found they had 3 (well picked) 1st Gens and a Frontier. I was able to cobble together a working configuration . Paid $12 for one panel & hardware for both. Also, spied a transmission cooler that I may revisit . Don’t forget to remember your local pick-n-saves. 😉

Technical Question Help me pick rock sliders for my 2012.

6 Upvotes

I removed the stock running boards for fear of bending them into the body, and want to pickup some proper rock sliders.

I've been mostly looking at the z1 because they are currently on sale, but am a bit confused about the kickup. I think from the description that's to aid as a step for the rear which is a plus for loading kids and tying stuff to the rack. Seems solid for the price, but I'm open to other options?

Technical Question Parts and tips pre-purchase

Looking at buying a decent specimen for.my teenager. How is the parts situation? Watched some YT and seems there are not many quirks/issues.

Any tips and things to look for on a Xterra 2012 beyond SMOD, rust, door locks?

Driven Nissan Patrol for many years before moving to US...

Thx!

Technical Question Does anybody know what this noise is? it's a 2006 Nissan Xterra with 193,000 miles but is in good shape.

4 Upvotes

We purchased it a few months ago and have been doing work to it and it wasn't making this noise until the other day. I changed the oil because the person we bought it from had a quarter and a half too much oil in it but it was not driven much.

Discussion Valve Cover and Sensors

Post image
14 Upvotes

I have a 2013 Xterra Pro4X with a leaking valve cover. I took it to the dealership to have them replace the valve cover. While they are in there with the air intake off I asked them to change out the crank and cam sensors (3 sensors), replace the spark plugs, clean the throttle body and change its gasket, and do an oil change.

I have all of my own parts it will cost me around $450. The dealership has quoted me only labor and they said it will be $1468 out the door.

Is that a good price or should I look elsewhere? My truck has 89k miles.

I’ve been looking at getting a manual transmission xterra for a while now and found 2001 3.3l v6 manual xterra with 212,000 miles on it. It looks pretty nice to me minus some of the upholstery. I wound really appreciate some input on how y’all think this looks and if it’s a decent deal. Looking to drive this to and from work (about 30 miles one way) and for pleasure (camping and stuff).
