When an entered key is detected the red light stops flashing.
I don't know of any way to remove the system from the vehicle. If you could it wouldn't be much of a security system, would it? It's tied into the engine ecu.
the last couple of oil changes there is no oil on the dip stick. It smokes a little on start up and it's gray, white I guess. The dealership keeps saying there's nothing wrong with it. If someone has the same problem or can help please do.
When the shaking and rattling happens, which is occassional such as once a week, everything rattles including the steering wheel, rear hatch, etc. Any suggestions now?
These guys claim they can fix the CD changer: http://www.carstereohelp.com/strnissan.htm
I will continue to update everyone on the progress or lack of progress on this problem. PM me if you would like to have more details that what I have provided over the last 3 months.
(Executive Specialist name omitted),
Thank you for returning my call on from Friday even though I was unable to answer at the time. I have left you and (Executive Specialist name omitted) messages to please call me back again. Please reply or give me a call back at your earliest convenience.
I would like to know the status the claim regarding the reoccurring problems of the 2001 Nissan/Infiniti Pathfinder/QX4 6-disc CD changer. Since you have access to the VIN database, a few contacts to owners would identify the problems with the CD changer mechanism is quite widespread. I hope you understand the denial of this problem does not help anyone. Many consumers, if not all the consumers, owning the 2001 Nissan Pathfinder and Infiniti QX4 have experienced this problem on more than one occasion. Both of you mentioned that a denial letter had been sent. The letter mentioned has never made it to me. If at all possible, I would like to know how this problem was researched and how Nissan and Infiniti can deny this problem. If you can provide this information, it would be much appreciated.
My address and contact information are listed below, so you may send me a copy of the denial letter:
Beginning of paraphrase:
...I received your voice mail regarding the letter and touched base with (other Executive Specialist name omitted) that was providing the letter. (Name omitted) said that a second copy was sent last week; however, I will print something out, will draft a new letter. For my own measures, I will draft a new letter and send it to you FedEx Overnight it should arrive no later than noon tomorrow and will have a tracking number. I will do this in the next 5-10 minutes, and it will have a tracking number to verify it gets to your address without any hiccups or problems.
End of paraphrase.
I do not understand why the first letter which was sent twice did not arrive in my mailbox. I have provided NNA with my address, VIN, phone, email, fax, and pager each time I sent an email. I have never had this much problem with the post office or parcel carriers. I can't help but think that the original letter was never sent to me even one time. So I wonder if FedEx overnight can actually deliver the letter (denying any reoccurring problems with the 6-disc CD changer) that continues to vanish when sent to me.
If you find an answer please share it.

And a secondary request, should I consider any wheel/tire size other than what was on there already?
Thanks so much.
Sincerely - In Texas *******GOOD LUCK********
Ive heard of this before, my moms crapalier did it too the additve package in the oil used doesnt agree with the materials in the engine and the oil turns almost like a molassess type substance in the bottom of the oil pan.... we found this out because a week later the engine spun the main bearings, broke the crank, conrods, and siezed a piston. and once the stealership dissassembled the engine they discovered this stuff in the oil pan. dont know if this is true for you, but id definitly have that possibility checked.

Any suggestions?

I wish I had the answer. So you don't feel alone, I also have the same problem with my '03 LE (3.5L), probably a bit worse. I'm not driving it hard, and I'll only get about 15 at best with pure highway driving, 10-12 with mixed driving. Pretty frustrating. The stealer is no help with this one either.
Thanks,
Tom
Leaving the vehicle sitting will drain the battery slowly and can be hard on it if you don't take it for a long drive once a week (an hour or more).
My 2001 has removable caps on the battery, and I've been able to top up the fluid with distilled water. If the fluid gets down, the battery looses power. If you can top it up, try that before replacing it. You need to charge it up properly after topping it up - again, a one hour or longer drive will do that.
With the engine running, you should see between 13 and 14 V at the battery, nominally 13.8 or so. When it's cold it should increase to 14 or so. If you see these voltages, your charging system is ok.
