Coolant leak on 3.5Ls
Coolant leak on 3.5Ls
Anyone heard of this? Looks like it would be for early 2002 models.

Coolant leakage. If you encounter
coolant leaking from underneath an
early-production 2002 Pathfinder,
Maxima or Altima with the 3.5L V6,
head straight for the water pump because
its front O-ring is susceptible to
leakage. Fortunately, Nissan is on top
of the situation in the form of a newdesign
ring that provides a more
durable seal. For reference, the new
O-ring is black and has a white paint
stripe along part of its circumference;
the old-design ring is orange, with no
stripe. When replacing the pump,
make sure you get the new O-ring. Vehicles built after 12/1/01 already have
the new ring tucked into position.
