    Default Anyone know Xterra repair?

    My son bought a 2001 Xterra. There are a few electrical issues plus we need to replace the rear wiper motor. Anyone know these things? Email or pm and we exchange numbers, thanks. We're in Centennial near Southglenn if that helps.

    Jack up radiator cap.
    Remove Nissan vehicle from under radiator cap.
    Place real vehicle (Ford / Chevy / Dodge) under radiator cap.
    Lower radiator cap.
    Drive vehicle as normal.

    No, he admitted it was a vehicle. No one would DARE call it a truck. Remember, the Yugo was a vehicle also.

    Ouch!! Funny but I've had great luck with Nissan's (had a '93 Pathfinder, '06 Frontier) as has my older son-he has a '12 Xterra and had an Altima before that. Seriously though pretty much every mfg has issues but we just get lucky every now and then

    Hahaha, that would have been believable if you'd have left the Ford out, LOL.

    Oh I got, sorry if it appeared I didn't. A good ribbing is fine with me.

    I appreciate all the info and suggestions. One more example of what makes this a great place!

    I actually just started working at Nissan. Too far away to help. However, I will offer this advice. Replace your radiator every 5-8 years. From the main shop techs there, it sounds like there is an issue where the transmission fluid will get into the coolant because of the way the radiator is designed. Eventually it weakens, and the fluids mix, killing the trans.
