About A Torelli
Expertise
I have over 22 years in this buisness and will try and help you the best that I can. I will apologize now for any of you that I cant help. Remember that vehicles are very complex and not actually being able to examine the vehicle can make a diagnosis difficult if not impossible. I am not a miracle worker. I do this for free on my own time and hope that you appreciate it. PLease make sure that you provide me with all of the vehicle information in your questions: Year, Make, Model, Trim Level, Engine size, Trans = Manual or Automatic, production date and mileage. This will make my response to you as efficient as possible. I do not answer questions on the weekends.

Experience
22 years as an automotive technician and shop owner

Education/Credentials
ASE Master Automobile Technician, Nissan Master Tech, Toyota and Honda factory training, L1 certified and a whole lot more.

Nissan - 2005 Nissan Pathfinder


Expert: A Torelli - 3/20/2007

Question
The last couple of weeks my Pathfinder (which as 41,000 miles) did not start and now the DTE is acting flaky.  Then the Check Engine Soon light came on.  They are saying my fuel pump is going bad.  Is that normal for a 2005 vehicle with 41,000 miles?  If so, what makes it go bad?

Thank you.

Answer
What was the code? What is the fuel pressure reading? and no its not normal but it could happen. I have seen cars come off the tractor trailer and not start. You really need to get a pressure reading. Fuel pumps do not normally trigger MIL lights to go on. ????? The pmp is simply and electrical motor that moves fuel. Many things can go wrong with it.
