Not to make this a long story the short of it . Engine is barely running like it's spitting and sputtering is I bring it to Nissan for diagnostic. They tell me my engine is shot the cats were sucked in throw the intake and I need a new engine 5,000 to 10,000 !!!

So this is where it gets interesting

Now mine you I have a little mechanic experience so I'm like yea ok it's not looked up ,it still runs I got this

So I start googling the VK56DE my engine all I can get it the Nissan dealer ship

At this time I'm trying to get mechanics to look at it their all telling me Nissan has the codes an they will not share it .

At this point I'm getting mad so I Google ( engine close to the VK56DE )Ferrari comes and I'm like yea ok what ever F-ing Google right

So I decide to have fun with it so I'm scrolling through pics.and what do I see it's a titan engine low an behold Ferrari and Nissan have the same type of V8 engines

So I start like for info on the Ferrari v8 and they had problems with the cats they were getting sucked in, the exhaust was to small

Now it's two years later I'm pissed

So I start working on it

I took out injectors, intake manifold, spark plugs, O2 sensors, and cats

Cleaned everything and put it all back

It took one week now that's working on it after work

And now it is running great!

My Titan won't go over 3k rpm and I can't stomp on it without it falling on its face.This is my first truck so I'm really new to this but could this be the problem?

So I have a Po420. Thinking it is caused by a cracked manifold. Want to install a set of jba headers.if the cat is bad is there and alternative to OEM?or can the cat be eliminated?

I have a 2006 LE crew cab AEM intake, Flowmaster. Recently threw this code. I really do not have a thousand dollars for one side of manifold/cat. Is there any alternative such as headers and an aftermarket cat? Here's the kicker I live in commiefornia. So it also has to be CARB compliant any help or advice is greatly appreciated.

TruXedo Deuce 2-IN-1 Roll-Up Tonneau Cover Nissan Titan 5’ 7” box

 
TruXedo Deuce 2 for short bed Nissan.  Has clamps that mount into utilitrac system.  The Truxedo Deuce is the only soft tonneau that can be rolled completely from the rear, or folded open on the front to allow front of box access. Due to a mix up in Christmas gifts this year I ended up with two.  I have one on my 2012 and LOVE IT.  TruXedo Deuce Nissan The Truxedo Deuce is the only soft tonneau that can be rolled completely from the rear, or folded open on the front to allow front of box access. Yet with this added functionality, the Deuce is still low profile for a clean look. It only sits one inch off the bed. The Deuce exclusive hinged design includes a built-in tension control device to avoid pinch and wear of the fabric. This frame incorporates two patented features that assure a tight cover fit in any temperature. No drill installation. Easy one hand operation opens either end.  Lists online for $529.00.  Will sell for $325.00 plus shipping.  (I did some prelim checking and I believe this will cost about $89 for ground shipping so you will save about $200.

When cold goes thru all gears just fine, when it warms up no 4th or 5 gear. Oil not burnt and look good too, no codes. Changedo oil same result. If it will go into 4th or 5 get a very bad shutter from transmission when trying to accelerate unless I put it to the floor then it down shifts but will do it again when up shifts. It's a 2010 with 100 k on it. Never tow anything just normal hiway driving.

Havock, I haven't seen you on the board for years now but I wanted to wish you a happy birthday anyway. 

Thanks for adding me to the site. I'm in the middle of the search for my first used Titan. I previously had an '04 Silverado stepside that turned into a money pit over the past year and a half after it turned 140K (rockers, cab corners, transmission, alternator, yadda, yadda, yadda) so I unloaded it and am on the lookout for a Titan now as they seem to have much more power and sadly the Japanese car and truck makers seem to have their eye on the ball much more so than the domestics.

 

With a budget of $11k I've been looking at 2004-2008 king or double cab's with under 130k on the odometer and there seems to be some out there in my area of southeast PA. I've read that the exhaust manifolds and differential seals are common problems which I have been on the lookout for. Are there any other issues to keep a watchful eye on when looking at used?
