I'm replacing the front two brake lines. Should I bleed LF, LR, then RF? Or just those two? I don't want to introduce air into the LR, but that's the "remaining" order.

It didn’t go away, but it was much more pronounced when accelerating and hitting the brakes, and hardly any noise when just coasting.

Thats the steering angle sensor that just needs to be reset. Depending on year some people say you should be able to turn the truck off with wheels perfectly straight, start it, then drive in a straight line for a bit and it will reset itself. In my case I had to use Nisscan software (equivalent...

For what it’s worth, this is the only other reference I’ve found of this issue on a later model VQ40: https://www.clubfrontier.org/threads/uprev-will-not-switch-maps.317721/ It seems like there’s a way to do it, but it’s a matter of getting the right person to do it. (The guy mentioned in that...

Have you done the front bearings? I have a whole thread here and had videos and everything of something similar I was convinced was the rear diff, but was actually the front passenger hub/bearing. I checked it for play and it didn’t have any until after the noise got louder.

Received a call from Z1 within a few minutes of them seeing me tag them on Instagram. Refund is on the way. Updated the title to reflect that. I’m still angry it had to come to that point. If I didn’t have Instagram I don’t think I’d have a refund yet.

In the interest of clarity, I am going to skip straight to factual statements: In October 2023, I emailed Z1 Offroad to explicitly ask if their UpRev tune would work with my 2015 Xterra. They requested my VIN, then "confirmed" it would work before I made my purchase. This is in writing. As it...

I’m just annoyed at the timing. I have a rigs and coffee + trail ride I’m supposed to be hosting Saturday morning and I’m annoyed at how much $$ I’ve had to continually dump into this set over the course of weeks. Holding on to it until I know the new stuff isn’t going to blow up. Once all the...

No play anywhere. With the scope right under the CV on the diff and right under the pinion there was no difference in sound. Honestly about to just put my stock stuff back in and learn the lesson of not messing with things that are working fine.

I have a mechanic stethoscope so tonight I’ll get it up in the air and see if I can listen for the exact spot it’s loudest.

Think that’s what it is? That’s what I would guess but I’m new to anything inside a diff.

Also if it’s the bearings in the front diff, is it easier/cheaper to replace them or to just take the gears from this R180 and throw them in my other one? I’ve been looking for write ups on regearing the front but it seems everybody just finds a whole new front diff.

When recording this I thought it was my brand new wheel hub, but heard it on the other side too and realized it’s the front diff. Anybody have a quick diagnosis? Both wheels off the ground. View: https://youtube.com/shorts/f1fqRH_FKgA?si=h7xRo4En9Nn7DTAd
