Get the Duramax.TallTexan said:After having rear ends fail all through my warranty period and the last differential still under the 12000 mile part warranty, Nissan has refused to fix it. The general Manager of Baker-Jackson Nissan South gave me the news but he invited me to come on down and buy a 08 Titan. I asked if the differential problems had been fixed but he said he did not know. He said sometime the best thing to do with a bad truck is to just trade it in. What a guy! He needs to work in Nissan Consumer affairs. Driving one of the Titans past 60k is dangerous. I was going to install a Tru-Trac but I think I will just get that Diesel I have been wanting. Now which one to pick.
You don't understand his predicament. Read some of his posts, he's been through more differentials than most have been with tires.bl12345 said:Call Nissan direct. Be polite, but persistant. They fixed my fuel pump for free when I had about 115,000 miles on my Frontier.
It was a recall thing for Frontiers in bought in the rust belt states. I bought mine in California and then moved to a rust belt state.

AHHHH Why this?.......................jasonmotox said:yeah, ban him he's got a potty mouth, go buy a ford crybaby
I guess so. Dodge would be my second choice because of the mega cab, but i had problems with my trans on my last Dodge truck. Hopefully they fixed that problem. I know i wouldn't buy a Ford.AF-Medic said:Then you would have an ugly tailpipe. Look at some of Helinut's Photo's. Get a Dodge Mega cab. Lift it and put some tires on it.
What kind of problems did you experience with the Duramax? Just curious? I had problems with my Powerstroke work truck which had all the options. I'm just looking for a good diesel truck to tow with to the dunes and keep my Titan.Z-Hauler said:Truly if you think about it, getting a truetrac will save you thousands. You will have to pay for the diff itself and the work to have it put in( which will be about $800 [550 for the part, 250 for install]) rather than having to buy another truck at whatever APR and plus what rollover you might have to eat. Now if you really want a diesel, I would go for the Cummins (Dodge). When it comes to domestics, I generally lean towards Chevy, but with the price and power, Dodge has what you need. Ford powerstrokes are expensive but the best out there and the Duramax IMO just doesn't cut it (with my experiences).
Thanks 37L1, I thought I could outlast Nissan and force a fix. I think they know what the problem is but fix mine and they would have to fix them all. Amazingly Nissan still acts like no problem exists. The one good thing is that some members are having good luck. Wish I knew what the problem is with mine. Something weird, I can rock my rear tires back and forth and watch the diff rotate up and down. The driveshaft bends up and down as the tires rotate. The problem might just lie with the axle wrap problem causing a lot of movement in the axle. The axle is designed to go up and down with the spring movement not rotate back and forth. Just my thoughts. Nissan will never know because the refuse to check it, only bolt a new diff on and send you on your way.37L1 said:You don't understand his predicament.

Why wait, I'm all about the premptive strike. Iffy rearend, get TruTrac, iffy exhaust manifolds, get headers, lol. I plan on keeping this pig well into the next paint job and like the performance mods anyway but if it was just another truck to me I would trade her in.Wildmike said:I would just get a truetrac also. In fact if my rearend ever goes out that is what I will do.
Too bad you have gotten such poor customer service.
