#howto #diy #xterra - Авто та транспорт
I have a "vintage" (2003) Xterra with a ton of miles. It is strong and reliable; I intend to keep it forever. Videos like yours help me do that. Thanks.
ditto.
Looking to buy an Xterra right now and this will really help when I'm inspecting them. Thanks!
Love your vids. Keep em coming!
Very helpful! Thank you for your information on the IAT sensor!
This really is so helpful. I just got an Xterra. Thanks
How is your xterra doing?
Great video very helpful
Dude, thank you so much for this video. I believe because you made this video I have found an issue and was able to fix it. Very helpful and informative. Thank you again for you expertise.
Hell yea man! Thanks for watching. Be sure to Subscribe, I still have the Xterra.
Thanks, this is super helpful! I learned a lot. I had a leaky windshield washer reservoir on purchase of my used Xterra as well. Unfortunately I didn't notice until I got home. It is fixed though, for now...
Helpful video as usual, thanks
You got it!
Very useful video!
thanks for the video! was looking for something like this
My pleasure! Glad you like it. Thanks for watching.
Really informative video, great job!
Thank you! Glad you liked it.
Thank you for such a great presentation 👏 😊
Most welcome 😊
I have referenced your videos more times than I can count. I have a 2011 pro-4x but most procedures have been the same. 240K on the clock and running like a top, thanks so much for your incredibly in depth and detailed tutorials/walkthroughs.
Very glad to hear!! Thanks for watching man.
Any issuies at all with your 2011pro 4x ? I bought a 2012 love it.
Now a sub! Excellent videos! Wow!
Thank you! I appreciate you joining the fun. 👍🏻
Salute to you brother. this video is very informative and helpful.
Glad it was helpful! :D
You are a Godsend! Thank you so very much!!!!❤
You're welcome! ❤️
Thanks. Good video, I learned a lot too.
Glad to hear! Thanks for watching,
Love the Xterra videos! I have had mine for 10 years and learned a lot from your expertise. I wish I was able to watch this video 10 years ago.
A request for future video- motor mounts replacement. Sounds like they usually should be replaced around 100K on this vehicle, and if that engine starts to settle it can cause your cat's to go which is very expensive! Thank you!
Another video suggestion: u-joint replacement.
Hope you can help me. I have the very truck, my Xterra brake pedal is a bit heavy. Can you guide me to what can I look for?
Very helpful tks.
NICE ENGINE TOUR - VERY COMPREHENSIVE & USEFUL - KNOWLEDGE IS POWER - GREAT TO BOOKMARK - THANKS 👍 👍
You're welcome 😀
I have just learned something brand spankin new about your video brother because I am actually looking at buying myself a used Nissan Frontier bro and now I know what exactly too look for in a used truck so thank you brother for the great information that I now know myself
Glad I could help!
guys thank very much though because now I can't really get ripped off by anyone else because then I will definitely what exactly too look for in the Vehicle and if it doesn't sound right away whenever possible here people because if it doesn't really sound correct then something else is wrong with that engine and it might just not be worth buying
Thanks for these awesome videos. Can you do a video on replacing the Coolant Reservoir Tank.
Thank you
Thanks!
Wow, thank you for this! I really appreciate it.
Great video as usual. Can you do one on the gauge cluster menu? The one that does lights test, gauge test, shows exact RPMs, temperature, digital speedometer etc... These are the only things I could understand.
Wish I had a video like this for all my cars.
Glad you like it. What other cars do you have?
2006 M45, 2006 Impreza, 2001 Grand Cherokee, 2009 Yaris; but my 2006 Xterra is my favorite!
Man your the best' what can i say" but thanks...jay miami
Thanks for this one! Got a request for you. Everyone seems to be blowing/cracking their heater core hose attachments. Right up at the firewall, both left and right sides are failing. Seems like someone is posting weekly "what is this part called" along with a pic of the broken part.
Thank you so much for these amazing detailed videos. You are super great.
For 2006 pathfinder, is the fuel line - you showed at 7.00 to 7.06- the port to use to clean injectors and catylytic convertor. I want to use a catylytic convertor cleaner and it says that this port is more effective in cleaning catylytic convertor (code p0430).
Please advise.
Thank you
Thanks Ray your videos are really helpful, I have an issue with my Xterra 2007 the gas leaks most probably from the top of the tank when I top it up do you have any idea how hard its to DIY fix it?
Thank you for your video. Question on the brake booster where does the PVC pipe connects the one that is on the left,
Great video. I have a 2002 nissan xterra, wanted to fit an auxiliary battery in the upper left hand side of the engine bay, in between the firewall and the fuse box. But there is this thing mounted on a bracket that has one end with some electrical going through the firewall, the other end has a cable that goes to the engine block. What is it, and can i remove it from the bracket and nudge it over? Not sure if it has to be grounded (hence the bracket it sits on)
Hi! Love your Channel! Hope you can help me. I have the very truck, my Xterra brake pedal is a bit heavy. Can you guide me to what can I look for?
Any chance you can go through a video of how to hunt down and test all the ground wires? I've had headlights that oscillate dim/bright for years. Now dealing with a P0301 code and P0420 code and one of those whispers of bad grounds causing these issues. Makes no sense & I don't know where or how to trace grounds and test.
I just picked up a 2014 Xterra Pro-4X and just wondering if a aftermarket intake system is any benefit to these vehicles? Or any other small mods like certain plugs,injectors and such?
Addition to my xterra, it will only rev up and down when in neutral or in park
hey. can you tell me. nissan pathfinder 2005, says service engine soon. dealer keeps reseting it. says its catalytic converter ??? does this sound right? would it say it that its plugged? is why code or o2 sendor on thae katt. lean bank one. AL from alsvintagehelicopters
So, for 6spd manual v6, the brake fluid is also the reservoir for clutch as well? Manual says DOT3. Is it okay to use DOT4 instead?
What plastic push pins do I need for my 09 Xterra grill
Does the 2nd gen xterra have a battery charging monitoring system that is connected to the battery?
Which plug and fuse or relay connects to the transmission range sensor
Big fan of your videos, I just wanna know did you ever do a video about vacum leak , cuz i have 2009 xterra and I can hear a hissing noise and also the car shake a bit when in idle, the problem is I couldn't find the source and to be frank I have no clue how many tubes i should check or it could be something else, keep in mind that there's no check the engine light or any codes.
This is why I’m on this video. Let me know if you found something!
How are you dear I hope your health is good. I have a 2008 Nissan Xterra and the engine is in a state of oil leakage from the cylinders. Do you advise me to disassemble it and make a reconstruction or a difficult one? Do you have a plan for the engine parts in the form of pictures for each part and if there is a video? Thank you.
Please tell me (us) where to find the map sensor or the Frontier.
Can you please help to explain where engine room will not safe cause of water washing. Frm Thailand
Hello Sir. Where to replace transmission fluid?
i have a 2002 xterra 3.3l i bought fog lights and hooked up to existing connections my issue is i found out that my turn signal switch is without fog light so i purchased with turn signal with fog lights the problem is the turn signal with fog light came with connector which i don't have any slightest idea where to connect maybe with your knowledge and skill i am asking for help i thank you
Thanks for the information. I just purchased a 2008 Nissan X-terra SE in Western Canada thought these would have a block heater. Do you know if Nissan X-terra were ever made with engine block heaters?
I am not sure. I have personally never seen one.
Does anybody know if the 2000 nissan xterra have a trans temp sensor? If so where is it located?
i love your videos man, i just want to ask i am having a hard time to fix the check engine soon light, i tried to fix the gas cap, i change the front O2 sensors, what else should i do? thanks
What's the code?
@@Rythecarguy it is P0011 a camshaft position , please if you can give me a good advice for that, cause i have no idea what does it mean. thanks ry
Ry, hopefully you see or read this! Have you ever had to replace the IPDM in your xterra? Currently have issue of not turning over, not starting. Luckily I was able to get home and park her before she crapped the 🛌.
Checked starter, works fine, checked relay and fuse for ignition and starter, all fine, replaced the battery, cold start it puts out 12.64 dcV, so plenty of power to start. Cleaned elec connection with new battery so no dirty terminals etc. The high fan kicks on, while hear one small click when key gets turned to start the motor. Also all the lights on the dash light up, so I am betting it is IPDM . Have you dealt with a dead or bad IPDM before? Does my problem sound familiar? Let me know thanks man love the videos!
Late to the part here...but I had that same issue on mine. Ended up replacing the connectors to the battery terminal and the starter motor and that solved the issue.
@@austingillem5312 oh shit, forgot I posted this.... so after checking starter motor, the ipdm, ignition, new battery, multiple fuses and relays, it turned out to be a 20 amp I fuse thay I didn’t check.. I was close to giving up and calling a mechanic, but had a feeling to check the ecu fuse and bingo, fixed it.. man that was so stressful
Hello Ry, do you have any videos on how to replace the Master cylinder on a (2005 -2011) Pathfinder ?? Thanks in advance.
No sorry man. Might have one someday!
Hey Ry
Maybe you can help me with my 08 xterra. Between the upper right quandron and lower right quandron, below the air filter box and the brake reservoir, there is a rubber hose not plugged into anything. I can't tell if it's part of the air intake system or air conditioning lines or what. I followed the hose and it looks like it goes down towards the bottom right side of the engine. I was hoping this video would get a good view of that area of your xterra so I could compare. Do you have any idea of what this mystery rubber hose could be?
Yes. Sounds like you have 4 wheel drive? That hose is going to be the breather tube for your front differential. If you follow it and it goes to your front diff then it's ok that it's not plugged into anything. It's not supposed to be.
Yeah. 4 wheel drive. I will follow that hose again to see for sure if it comes from the front diff.
One other thing I noticed was your collant overflow resevoir right below the cap has a small rubber hose. i don't have that hose, only the stem piece. I looked for a detached hose down below in the wheel well and couldn't find anything. Any idea?
Gracias.
Dónde está ubicado el distribuidor de corriente en la Xterra 2006 .
El carro se me apaga de repente en marcha por la carretera 🚙 🤯
has same engine as xtrera. but gets bad milage but runs perfect. is a pathfider that much worse than xtrea. my wife has a 2005 xtera and hers gets 30mpg on highway. mine gets 16mpg all the time. mines a 4x4. hers is not. you think a bad katt would cause the poor milage?? AL
As usual ry we enjoy of your videos ......islam from Egypt....don’t forget what I told you before a bout solving inductor of fule level..... its give us fake information in spite of changed it
Have you replaced the fuel pump?
Yes ry ....all housing
Main fuse box by the engien
Your videos have helped me a lot. I have the exact same Xterra. I recently ran into a issue with mine and was wondering if you have any advise. I got a new throttle body and did the relearning process after I installed it a few times. Now when ever I turn my vehicle on, it starts on a really high idle and after warming up it then will keep idling up and down from 1000rpm to 2000rpm constantly. I checked for any codes and none have popped up at all. I’m not quite sure on what I should do or check next. Any advise or possible video would be appreciated very much.
Thank you.
Hi Joshua, I have an '05. The local shop did an install for me and had the same problem. We must have run through the relearn 100 times!! I was forced to drive the vehicle...revs. ramping up and down at every stop light...to the dealership. They fixed it in 10 minutes!
I would prefer not to pay the 90$ to get it checked and then do it my self. Would you happen to know what was wrong with yours.was it just the relearning process? Or something else.
joshua montoya I presume Nissan have a better “relearn” than messing with the key!

How to Replace A Fan Clutch ua-cam.com/video/zcM4argVRkI/v-deo.html
Ry do you have a video on the oil catch can?
Yes sir! It’s my last two videos.
hello you completely skipped what i wanted to know what is the electric motor next to the master cylinder with tubes running out of it mine just keeps running with the key off
So as i trust your videos im regard to my xterra i decided to see if maybe youd point something out i wasnt aware of…..got a serious lol about battery description ending …”so youre not aah, so youre not killing yourself”….then just moves on 😂
Wait …..im getting older now ,but how did i not know the throttle(aka gas pedal) now controls air flow instead of fuel flow as it had for a century …?
Big a question on my 08 Pathfinder my fan clutch seems to stay on and sounds very loud while drive what's the problem
Just a bad fan clutch. Happens all the time on these engines. Here you go: ua-cam.com/video/zcM4argVRkI/v-deo.html
Where is tha clutch fluid reservoir?
I bought an 07 Xterra a couple months ago with 180k miles on it. It does not have the pink milkshake, but how do I make sure it won’t happen? Could the previous owner have put a more modern radiator in it? The carfax said that the radiator was replaced recently, are modern radiators better?
Definitely replace radiator and hose, if not already replaced. Nissan used a hose connecting transmission to radiator that has failed enough times for recall. I have had my 2007 x since 2009, right at 100k miles mine needed new radiator and new transmission
Wouldn't hurt to have it checked to be sure, but most did fail around 100k miles, mines almost at 180k now, next is timing chain replacement. The tensioner guides on secondary chain fail bc they are made of plastic, making your car "whine" when running. If not replaced, can mess up whole engine
Hey man I have a 2006 Nissan Xterra, I was wondering if you can help me out with something. My dash always gives me a VDC off and slip light and I don’t know what that means and also I press on the vdc button but it does not turn on or off, just remains on, on my dash. Please and thanks👍🏻
Probably have to replace your clockspring... Fairly common with the Xterra. Throw a scanner on it and it should give you some codes to start with.
Do you have a video on the "creative" ways to remove and replace the passenger side spark plugs without removing the excessive parts that block access?
I'm sorry no. I ended up taking everything off. I heard that you can use a few elbow connectors on your ratchet to get them out. It I have never tried. Sorry I can't be more help.
@@Rythecarguy Yes, I think I remember you doing it. I have the real ngk plugs waiting in my garage, but I am hesitant to start fooling with a similar removal. Yes, I have heard of the elbow connector technique but I really can't imagine Nissan service dealers really taking the intake manifold off to just remove and replace the plugs.....as you know what $$$$ the custormer would be paying.
Hey Ry. I've had a problem with my 2006 xterra and haven't been able to solve it for the past 2 weeks. The rpm are at 600 doesn't accelerate after the 2nd shift. Changed the intel manifold because it made a weird noise, the maf sensor and still nothing, could you give me some advise. Thank you
It sounds like your truck might be in “limp mode”. This is an event where one of your vehicles control unit fails. Is your MIL on? If so you need to pull the code and research it. Otherwise you would need to get it to a professional and they would use what’s called the CAN system in your truck to figure out what’s going on.
Thanks Ry. It turn out to be the timing chain, the tensioner was broken
Hey question if your rpm are high do you have to clean the throttle body
Yes I would clean it and then do the throttle relearn procedure. You can find that here: ua-cam.com/video/B65UAHHVN3o/v-deo.html
So what’s the little yellow cap on the bottom middle
The radiator cap.
where is the tpc sensor location
What year is your xterra? Have you replaced the Radiator? Are you worried about the SMOD problem?
Mine is an 05. Mine will not have the SMOD problem since it is a manual transmission.
Good stuff. About to tackle the radiator on my ‘07. No videos as good as yours out there, but think I have cobbled together the necessary info by watching several.
Heh, I don't know when it happened but someone took my cover with the V6 logo off and didn't put it back on. Not sure if I want to spend the $25 to replace it.
Eh, skip it. They are just for looks/sound anyway.

WHERE IS THE COMPUTER ON A 2008
Here's a suggestion for your next Xterra video.
Coolant hose replacement.
A video to show the replacement of all coolant system hoses, not just the upper & loser radiator hoses, but replacement of all of them.
I heard somewhere there were up to 14 of them.
Also you could cover replacement of the plastic heater hose inlet ( the replacement is now aluminum ) and the outlet which is also plastic and often breaks.
It's very difficult to even know what there is by looking at parts diagrams.
Also go over the coolant .... do a flush .... and explain the difference between the old green and newer blue formulations.
That’s the blue thing in zone 2
Thats my oil catch can.
Thank you my friend. My husband is a POS who doesn't do much to teach only seek to make fun. Now I don't feel as stupid as he makes me out to be. XD you kick @$$!!! ***Subscription***** **clicketty - friggin - click click!!!*****.
I don't know if I missed it but what year is this Nissan
2005
I have been looking at these, but the list of common catastrophic problems has given me pause.
They are all preventable. If properly maintained, the Xterra is a really reliable vehicle.
@@Rythecarguy Yes. Just have to find a good example. Pricing is all over the place. Thanks for the wonderful content! You really do a great job!
@@mattwernecke2342 thanks man. I try my best. 💪🏻💪🏻 great let me know if you have any questions.
You missed the transmission district/fill tibe
Great video though....thanks

Where is the IAT sensor?
It’s built into the MAF sensor
