    Well it is totaled.

    They burn oil which coats the honeycomb and throws the p0420 code. It does not affect the way it drives, mpg or anything other than a CEL. Drive it how it is and forget about it

    Tag question

    Reuse the tag. If the vehicle you are purchasing is the same model year or older and your old tag is up to date, it will save you money. Out-of-state vehicles require VIN inspections.

    Well it is totaled.

    It's tax time and that pathfinder is an easy 4k dollar car. The engine and transmission will last 200k+ miles. My experience working on them- they leak a little oil and burn a lot, the tensioner pulleys fail every now and then and the front wheel bearings need to be adjusted from time to time...

    Paint and Body.

    No, you can get away with painting only part of it. It will need to be blended though, especially with its age. I repair and resell vehicles. I just locate and bolt on parts and hire out the paint and bodywork portion of it. If you post pics I can give you an idea of what I would expect to pay...

    Anyone know anything about Nissans?

    It is the 2007-12 Altima and Rogue mainly. Maxima, Murano, and Quests had valve body issues in the prior years(04-07ish). Most of the 2008+ come with push start. I don't recommend Nissans to friends when there are better options out there like Honda, Toyota, and Subaru.

    Anyone know anything about Nissans?

    Steer clear of Nissans unless you get a smoking deal. 08-12 have transmission issues. Post up pics of the Rav4 damage if you want to know if it is worth fixing.

    Different rim sizes

    There should be a sticker in the driver's door jamb that has the correct tire sizes for the front, rear, and spare. Not uncommon to see a smaller rim on a spare but with a taller sidewall to make the overall diameter the same. It is important to have to same size as what is listed so you don't...

    Indepentent Auto Service place - Stillwater?

    They charge by the book(flag) hour generally based on what Alldata or Mitchell ondemand says the hours will be. A dealership will charge around $200 a flag hour while an independent shop may charge $80 or 100.

    Indepentent Auto Service place - Stillwater?

    ^This. With the code, you can call ahead and get a ballpark on what a repair might entail or google/youtube it and fix it yourself. I recommend investing in a cheap(<$30) bluetooth obd2 device that will read the P codes. Sometimes it will throw a code for something simple like forgetting to...

    Oil overfilled ?

    Check the oil with the engine off, on a level surface. Remove dipstick, wipe, reinsert, remove and read. Was P0198 present before taking it in for a change? If not, check the oil sensor harness for oil that may have been spilled on it during the oil change. Oil on connectors can cause faulty...

    Need a good mechanic Edmond

    You can probably just get away with changing the spark plugs. If the plugs are bad, it can throw a P0420 or similar code. Typically sensors don't need to be replaced.

    Do you have an Espresso / Coffee Bar? Lets see!

    You can add water to it, add more steamed milk, ice it, or dress it up however. An Americano is just watered-down espresso. If you are making it at your house, make it how you like it. The pressurized extraction (9 bar is standard) is what gives it a smooth flavor. I started off with a very...

    Do you have an Espresso / Coffee Bar? Lets see!

    Mine thinks I spent 1/2 of what I actually paid and was still upset. I told her good coffee is priceless and I make her espresso every morning and evening so she stopped yapping(about that at least).

    Appliance repair experts

    I would check the airflow from the freezer to the refrigerator. Sometimes the vent holes can freeze up over time or some models use a fan to move freezer air to the fridge. Sometimes a byproduct of this is heavy condensation on the upper shelves. Also, check the seals for large leaks or check to...

    Had the most unusual interaction with a Highway Patrol trooper yesterday.

    Troopers generally don't enjoy writing tickets for people as old as their parents/grandparents and they don't have a quota on tickets, just contacts so they have a lot of latitude in how they deal with people. Pulling over first also went a long way in assuring you didn't get a ticket.

    Ransomware attack on Hillcrest

    They hit OSU Medical almost a month ago and worked their way to Hillcrest(both in the Ardent family). Hillcrest finally got their time clocks fixed and are working on Epic(the charting system). For now, it is paper charting. The same thing happened a little over a year ago- it just wasn't...

    Would you sell?

    Housing and used auto prices have been dropping for the last few months, so it will soon be a buyer's market. 21K was a fair offer and you should take it, especially since you have it listed for 23K on FB marketplace. I dont see any Tundras near that price and doubt it will bring that with a...
