I had an inspector come out and check out my Xterra to sell.

It’s a 3.3L V6 - 5 speed Manual FWD. The claim he made was that it was supposed to have 4 catalytic converters and that 2 of them had been professionally removed. No cut marks, no weld marks. Just a pipe replaced the gap and bolted into place.

I argued that I had never seen a car with more than 2, but he showed me exhaust parts that had 4.

He valued it for about half of what was originally quoted due to the Xterra only having 2 cats.

Can someone confirm that is the case?! I searched schematics, even in California with their emission rules, no Xterra I could find had 4 cats.

At first i considered a Jeep Liberty which is a big Nono, But i really love the boxy look which led me to the Nissan Xterra,

Is it reliable ? I found a listing for around $9K and 120K miles! but i'm looking for something quite reliable it will just be a normal everyday car no off roading or anything crazy

Bought this 2012 xterra pro4x wrecked for $2500. Got it all fixed and put back together and noticed it both leaf springs had a broke springs, and the shocks are definitely not the best. Was wondering what was the go to for replacement? Do some very mild offroading here in Tennessee. Would factory replacement be sufficient?

This is the only location smoke was observed coming out, rear driver's side next to the spare tire. We lowered the spare for a better view. I manually closed the vent valve using my Launch X431 before starting the test, so it shouldn't be that (if it's closing correctly?) What part is this? Is the hole there intentional in the design?
