In the United States, the 3.5L V6 engine found in the 2004 Nissan Pathfinder is equipped with a timing belt as standard. It is important to replace this timing belt in your vehicle to avoid potential damage if it breaks. This maintenance task is one of the pricier ones for your SUV and should be performed every 60,000 to 100,000 miles. Failing to replace the timing belt could result in engine failure due to a loss of timing. I suggest replacing the water pump at the same time as the timing belt since they are located in the same area at the back of the engine.
