Hey Xterra family, So l have an 06 xterra, that has this leak on the front passanger side. Its coming down in front of the right tire, all over the frame and even has sludge buildup. Ive checked the oil, fine, if checked to see if its coolant and l cant tell. The previous owner added an...

Hi All, I just recently replaced the clutch in my 2000 Xterra. It was a PITA to get it out and back in, but it's working great now...well....except for the fact that transmission fluid is now leaking out at the front where it connects to the engine. Sooooo....I'm assuming that in the removal...

New here... My son has a 2000 XE, 6 Cyl, manual, 180,000 miles. 1) There is an oil leak (not bad) and I found the driver side valve cover is the issue. The manual I have says I need to remove the upper intake plenum. Doesn't look too hard, just takes time. Any advice here or "heads up" ? I do...

Hello everyone. First time repair question for me. I went to change the TC fluid and noticed a clear liquid build up on the bottom of the TC at the front seal. This is the seal is just behind where the TC meet the transmission. Not the front output seal. This is the second time I have seen...

Hello, I'm sorry for jumping in like this, and if you've already addressed the question elsewhere please don't get irritated with me. My wife and I are dying to buy an Xterra to drive from FL to OR but we're worried about the automatic transmission/radiator issues. I've read the reports about...

Hey all, After reading up on the forums on this, it seems that others that have a 1st gen x have had this same problem of leaking out the RMS. However, I've also read that to many people it ends up being some other more easily fixed problem like a valve cover gasket. Last winter, my oil pan...

Hi, new member. My dad just bought a 2002 Xterra 2wd V6 3.3L and we've had many things go wrong, and anytime I google the problem, I see this forum, so I figured it was time to join, lol. So to the new problem. We were in line at a drive thru and the temp gauge kept climbing and climbing till...

I've just returned from my local Nissan dealership, getting recall repairs for my 2002 Xterra. After the work was done, the dealership did a "Courtesy Inspection". This inspection reportedly showed that my valve cover gaskets were leaking oil down onto the manifolds and other components, which...

My first post ever... so let me apologize for being a noob. The power steering reservoir is cracked at the bottom on my 2003 Xterra SE (where the hose clamp was apparently over-tightened). Also, the upper line is leaking at the connection to the reservoir. Basically, the whole passenger side of...

I just punctured something... What is it!? When it first happened I thought it was my radiator but upon further investigation i noticed my radiator is behind this thing. After I put a hole in it it started to leak air and it smelled kind of like Freon so im thinking it has something to do with...

When I got my Xterra, I knew immediately that it had an exhaust leak. Judging by older posts, its sounds like the manifold is cracked. Upon further reading, I see a DIY thread as well as solving the problem by welding the crack shut. With my X, I got a full service report full of old receipts...

Hey Folks, It looks like I'll be replacing my Head Gasket. I'll also change the timing belt, spark plugs along with a coolant flush. What else should I look at doing while replacing the head gasket ?

My '01 with 150k has a small coolant leak and I'm not sure where it is coming from. The highest point that I can tell the leak is dripping onto is the alternator and oil filter. Anyone have an idea about the location of the leak?
