Im new bee here, but I want to ask you something. Running Pathy 3,3 LE in UAE and have touble with noise coming from front axle ( may be ). Noise similar to bearing, but all of them I have change, have checked diff fluid act. It is coming any any gear any 2H/4H/4L mainly at 40-50 KM/H. Have 235000 Km and have this car 1,5 year from 120000 KM. Was really badly maintained, but I have changed nearly all needed parts (shocks a**, lever arm,bearings, oils,CV) Everything from Nissan parts. They are very cheep here. Im very good mechanic ( European ), but with this I really don't knew

Have you greased your driveshaft? It probably won't help but it doesn't hurt to rule it out, either.
