2008 Pathfindedr Ti

My daughter announced that she is buying a new Pathfinder Ti (diesel).

Anything she (I) should know about them? Serviciing costs, things that go bump in the middle of the night etc?

I have been told by the local service people that they need to run on full synthetic oil in the engine because of particulate filter etc in the emissions control. That will be more expense.

What about the towbar? Something in the back of my mind says that there was a problem some time back with towbars failing. Anyone enlighten me on that?

Thanks in advance for your help.

european assembled with alot of european stocked parts.

It'll be OK under warranty but she'll probably want to flog it off soon after its out.
