| Oct 2016130000 miUS $320 | The xterra had random computer issues, lots of main electrical harness connection issues, communication errors, my (U1000 codes I believe), the trans computer kicking out, and the trans dash lights flashing. After much research, there was recall for a faulty relay on the main power board (IPDM board) which led me to discover the early generation IPDM boards had enough issues that nissan completely re-engineered the IPDM board but not enough problems to recall it. SO IF YOU HAVE A WHITE FUSE BOARD NEXT TO THE BATTERY REPLACE IT WITH THE NEW BLACK REPLACEMENT BOARD. Install is easy, disconnect the battery, pop the cover off, carefully unplug all the 7 or so car harness plugs, unclip the two clips retaining the board in the box and slide out the old. In with the new board install it as the old one came out. | ||
| Apr 2017135000 miUS $650 | The xterra would crank but not start, the battery terminal was loose so the computer was getting a poor signal. This led to the dealership failure to identify the actual problem, and instead diagnosed it as a pump failure, so this costed me the effort to drop the tank and replace a perfectly good fuel pump unit. | ||

| Nissan Xterra in Ohio, United States - Feb 2017 | |||

But vehicle needed all new calipers, rotors, pads.. 4 shocks. Muffker. Tires. Distributor cap. Plugs. Home in manifold. Hi pressure Ac hose. Right control arm ball joint. Stabilizer. Almost all linkages. Both torsion bars. I suggest the torsion bar design was ill conceived. Can't even buy them from Nissan. Have to get off road stuff. Only good part is engine is almost unkillable. Runs great. Despite bad knock sensor. That alone just to replace is another $1700. Engine tear down to get to one sensor. Makes you wonder who designs cars??? | ||
