So let me start by saying I have a 2007 SLT, 4.7 (flex fuel), 4WD, Crew Cab.
Issue #1: So I keep having some bug issues with the truck. Every once in a while the "check gauges" light comes on upon start up and the oil pressure gauge shows 0. So I shut the truck off and back on and it's fixed. Doesn't happen often.
Issue #2: Low washer fluid warning. So same issue here, doesn't happen often only once in a while. Restarting the truck doesn't always fix this.
Issue #3: Transmission not shifting right. So this has only happened like 3 times in the last 8 months. The truck will drive like **** and won't shift correctly. I did a complete flush and filter change, so it's not that. Why I think this is a "bug" is because a restart of the truck fixes it.
Issue #4: And this is the most annoying, especially during the summer heat of coastal Georgia; the AC vents. So I've been having the typical issue if the fan blowing but not much coming out of the vents. So after some research and digging, I found out that the fresh air door wasn't broke but was clocked wrong on the door motor. So the door would operate but only open half way. So I removed the motor and held the door shut and replaced the motor. Problem fixed, or so I thought. Now intermittently I get zero air from the vents. The fan is blowing but nothing from the vents. Again, this is intermittent and really depends on if I change the controls at all. For example, I switched from AC and the upper vents to the defrost and it worked fine, but when I switched back to the AC and top vents there was nothing coming out of the vents. And no matter what setting I put it on there was nothing. Floor vents, upper vents or defrost vents. Turned the truck off for an hour and came back out and worked fine. Very frustrating!
*note: Even when I say "works fine", it still doesn't blow that had. Maybe about 50% of my wife's 2016 Pathfinder...
Thoughts? Suggestions?
