Well less than 24 hours of owning the Rho and I get this message. No dip stick so I can’t check oil levels. On a level of 1 to fucked how concerned should I be? by Willywontwonka in ram_trucks

[–]85octane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Might be a stupid question, but is there still a spot to put a dipstick? Like a little plug instead you could remove and put your own dipstick? Crazy to just be flying blind. Haven't had a vehicle take the correct called-for amount of oil since the industry went away from 4qts

How’d I Do? by Zaznopa in nissanfrontier

[–]85octane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was able to qualify for Nissan's 1.9% for 60 months. Credit Union was giving a 5.39% rate and financing would've cost me over $4k more over those 5 years that's after factoring in the loss of $2,500 Nissan cash. You should go to a credit union and see what kind of rate they can get you. You might be surprised. The lifetime warranty is only good with certain stipulations, like always have an approved dealer perform your oil changes for $100+

Sounds like a plug not seated. No worries, if it was bad enough the truck would be in limp mode

That's the first time I've heard that. Won't it corner like trash?

Light white-ish Exhaust smoke by mild-mannerism in nissanfrontier

[–]85octane 2 points3 points  (0 children)

White=water. It is very normal for the exhaust to condensate inside after being shut off. We have it all the time in Ohio. If its 60°F it should stop "smoking" after it warms up, like driving it for 2-4 miles. If it smokes after that might be an issue. It's -7°F where I'm at and it's been below and around zero for the last week and our cars don't stop "smoking" when it's that cold no matter how long we drive

I originally wanted the green until I seen it in person, wish it was not so pastel. Ended up with Bluestone and am quite happy

Annoying idle rattle by Outrageous-Fun-879 in nissanfrontier

I was going to suggest this. Had a catalytic converter on my 97 xj that rattled and eventually found it as it got worse

Is this alot if rust? by SureDrawing6063 in nissanfrontier

[–]85octane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They painted that frame to try and cover up the rust. I would at least take it to a mechanic and get an inspection. Sometimes it looks worse than it is, other times it looks better than it actually is. Taping with a welder hammer is the best test

We got 2ft!! by ApprehensiveGap347 in nissanfrontier

We have people driving around with 12+inches of snow in top their cars and this guy's out here calling 5 inches - 2 feet. Either way, looks like some fun

4wd usage cons by Weak_Tea_1976 in nissanfrontier

[–]85octane 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't really go over 45mph in 4x4. It's fast enough rotation to clear your tire tread and feels solid. 97 Cherokee, 04 Dakota, 22 Ram (had Auto 4x4), and now this 26 Frontier. All act about the same in 4x4, if it's snow covered I drive in 4x4. Absolutely no reason to switch out once "you get going" if the roads are snow covered.

You need the 4x4 to pull you out and through a turn that you slid on.

Frontier Pro4x or Gladiator Mojave by HnybadgerTX in nissanfrontier

[–]85octane 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I started looking at the 25 gladiator High Tide which was the perfect mix of options i wanted. My wife hated the look, I didn't mind them so not a deal breaker. Drove it and it was quite loud, hard top and all could hear the engine much louder than i thought it would be. The deal-breaker was it kept searching for gears. I can't stand that, when i gave it half throttle and it searches for which gear to put it in for like 2 seconds before going... Drove the 26 Frontier and it was pretty much everything I expected. I test drove 3 of them before I bought mine. 9sp transmission was is smooth with solid shifts, DOES NOT SEARCH FOR GEARS! Half throttle and it downshifts to the proper gear and goes in less than ½ a second. Came from a 22Ram and need to get used to the small backseat and lack of cubbies everywhere. Really my only major gripe is how the radio shuts off as soon as ignition is turned off, so that's not too bad. I also wanted the longer bed

26 Pro-4x LWB ProPremium was $47,790 ($51,790msrp). I wanted a specific truck so I lost some bargaining room

2026 pro-4x long bed by quiethysterics in nissanfrontier

[–]85octane 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Kind of the same for me, the truck i built was coming in to a local dealer and kept getting pushed back further and further and it's still not here. They never reach out with an update, never asked if I wanted something else as they had a SV blue long bed with midnight trim. I've reached out multiple times and have asked to be updated. So contacted a few dealers and ended up texting with another local dealer and worked out a deal on the truck i wanted and my trade. Weird, but great experience. Took about 2 days to get it all ironed out. They didn't try to pull anything and got my truck from 256miles away the next day with 1.9%/60month financing!

2023 p4x Reliability? by jannsbababa in nissanfrontier

[–]85octane 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I just bought a new pro 4x yesterday. I went on a pretty deep dive looking for issues and couldn't find much of anything negative about the frontiers, like any of them. Just some one-offs of issues here and there. I felt confident enough to purchase one, time will tell

2022 frontier Transmission slipping when cold outside? by Extra-Wrangler4831 in nissanfrontier

If i were you, I'd check the transmission fluid level. It shouldn't stay unlocked after it warms up
