When your Pathfinder overheated you now have a blown engine head & gasket. When it overheats you run into costly problems that make your vehicle only worth scrape. You do know that using your a/c or heater puts strain on engine and could have leak at freeze plug or plugs and slowly leaking water from radiator or water backing into overflow that has it boiling with steam coming out.

Check tightness of the clamps on battery & make sure the earth cable is tight from battery to engine, also check tightness of nut holding the cable 2 starter motor if all ok there its most probably the solenoid on top of starter motor replace this with new all will b ok.

Hi, Check fuses. Which is under the hood near the battery.

Good luck.

Hi, My guess is the oil in the transmission is low and needs to be topped up to level. Good luck.

The problem could be a coolant leak. A coolant pressure test would confirm. The leak could be from a loose or defective hose, a worn/damaged head-gasket, water-pump, freeze-plug, radiator, heater-core, or other component that antifreeze runs through. Please let me know if you have more questions or findings.

Possibly the "Mass airflow sensor". I had a similar problem, basically the car behaved like it didn't have a turbo and was really slow. Unfortunately the Mass airflow sensor is expensive, about AU$800. Only failed once several years ago. Hope this helps.
