Hi everyone!
I own a second hand 2001 Frontier, and I went to a local repair shop here in Carson and have my ride diagnosed for an upcoming road trip. The mechanic at that time was kinda having a bad day so we really didn't talked to each other that much.
He started testing several parts of the car with different apparatus and after several minutes he approached me and said "Dude, we need to replace your air filter if you plan to hit the long road. Ya know what I mean?" in a very cold and intimidating way.
So, all I could do was nod at his suggestion. Then he went into a sort of "stock room" and took some boxes out and pulled out a car part so alien to my eyes. He opened the hood and all I could here from where I was situated was engine parts clanking. Then afterwards, he approached me with stains of grease all over him and said in the same cold, intimidating tone "You're done. Just hooked you up with an AFE air filter. Don't worry, it's on me. I'll be quiting this job tomorrow anyhow." And then he just walked away and turned on the t.v.
Shocked as I was, I went home with my ride still astounded on what has just transpired and confused whether or not I should be happy or scared. It was really a mix of emotions.
Bottom line, I'm really scared s**t if there will any be any compatibility issues with the AFE filter with my Frontier? Anyone out there who knows this kind of issue?
Kind Regards and Good Times!
