this a old topic and wanted to bring it up again since my 08 does it the old topic i seen was posted back in 06 so i guess no solutions since then. here it is on my 2008 Frontier se there feels like 3 quick shift on acceleration at about 2 to 4 mph and at deceleration at about 2 mph, then when you come to a complete stop it feels like a rubberband. well i saw a sevice guy today and told me its the spline and needs to put grease just like the Titans.heard so many theories anyone have a definite answer. putting it in the shop this wednesday will let you guys know.

Seen lots of failures in u-joints on the rear as well as the front driveshaft. It's a lot easier to know what vehicle it is, if people state what vehicle they own by listing them in their signature.

08 frontier se 2wd automatic. service guy never mentioned u-joints or driveshaft, he said the promblem i had was in the rear axle the spline needed grease, he said the titans has had the same promblems. just saying what he said.... i seen this promblem was posted as far back as 06 with all different theories, so i'm assuming they have not fixed it.well it's in the shop so i guess i'll know soon.

well i've been to my nissan service 3 times already this week, first they were positive it was the rear drive axle so they put some grease no luck, now nissan corp. said to reprogram the transmission no luck again. my service guy is going to call nissan corp. again stay tuned.... should i go to another service dealer maybe i just need someone else to look at it.

I hate to say this but it sounds like your truck is a ginny pig for testing or you rear end atleast I hope it gets fixed.
