wow i came to the site to see reviews on the 2005 pathfinder, not much help bu after reading a few comments, i wantded to add one. my pathfinder was a 1993 vgr30 motor (v6) stick i put over 335,000 miles on this car. i was a sales men in the bayarea N. Cali and would drive 150- 200 miles a day. the only reasion i dont have the car now is becouse it was takin from me and stripped. i only change the starter once i used slick 50, and moblie one oil three clutches four barake jobs and four timming belts. nad she would have done so much more. i only wish it had a little more power but thats why i got a stick not a auto 93 pathfinder one bad ass suv
