Hi Eric.
This is Mustafa with the 2008 nissan frontier. thanks for the help with the suspension noise I had. it was the stabilizer links that was causing the issue. well I live in Boise, Idaho and this year been a special winter that made a record. temperatures been in the low single digits and even below zeros. everytime i start my pickup when its been sitting in the cold for a while, I smell heavy or rich air coming out of tail pipe till the engine runs for about 5 min at idle or driving it for couple minutes. I also notice gasoline smell from underneath the hood. check engine light came on for a day for cylinder #1 misfire then went away the next day and also I’m noticing that I’m burning more fuel than normal. I was wondering if this condition is normal for this crazy winter? and any ideas why did the engine light triggered for that cylinder and went away?
Thanks for your videos, your A/C basic operation video helped me get a 100% on my A/C exam back in 2014 when i was in the Diesel Program in College of Western Idaho. the college where I graduated from. Thanks and stay dirty.Hi Eric
I’m Mustafa and I’m a diesel mechanic ASE certified. I’m trying to learn more about cars though, I have a 2008 nissan frontier. Last month the front suspension started making noise everytime I go over a bump or when I make a sudden stop. Came to conclusion that my lower control arm on both sides are bad. So I went ahead and replaced the lower and upper on both sides. Took it to a shop for an alingment. The noise went away for two weeks then came back again. Also found the shock had a bad bushing on bottom. Could the control arm I bought possibly be bad? Shock, strut? Thanks!
