Recently had some issues with the xterra having trouble shifting gears, getting stuck in first, shuddering, etc...
Apparently this is a VERYYY well known problem and documented by many independent mechanics. Checked it out myself and KNEW what I was seeing was bad news. Had it checked out today by a transmission shop and sure enough, my radiator is corroded and coolant is leaking into my transmission...$5000 quote to have everything fixed.
Here's some links I wish I would have found earlier. Goes into better explanation.

Goodbye forever Nissan. Never again will I buy one.
