problem #1

Jul 142015

Nitro RT 4L V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 66,487 miles

The head unit stopped loading properly during a 1500km trip in July 2015. I found a replacement hard drive to install and paid for the disk image. This did NOT fix the problem and it appears that the mainboard or other circuitry failed. The cost for a used 430N on eBay etc is ~$1000; from OEM it is closer to $2000. I went to a junkyard and found an '07 with a standard non-MyGig radio of the same 'speed' and installed it.
