Can you help me troubleshoot Nissan Pathfinder transmission problems?

Answer by  txglory (32)

First vital thing when diagnosing transmission problems is to look around for any kind of leaks. Leaks can cause rough shifting of gears,causing gear breakage. Another thing to get checked is the transmission filter. If the filter is okay, and there are no transmission leaks, then the problems are deeper within the transmission, in which a rebuild might be needed.

Take it to a shop for the tranny. The shop will have to take the sealing around the housing outside apart or put on machine to trouble shoot the problem.

No one can help troubleshoot the transmission problems on a Nissan Pathfinder with out knowing the manufacture year of the vehicle and if it's equipped with a manual transmission or an automatic transmission. Need more info.

A transmission is a very complicated piece. Whether its a torque converter, clutch, or planetary gear I suggest not trying to fix it yourself unless you have a good amount of mechanical experience.

You will need to tell us a little more about your problem. If your pathfinder is new take it to a shop and have them plus it in and tell you the issues.
