All same exact issues(or normal function) here with my 05 nismo crewcab 4x4
I just drive, deal with it, carry on
...
Maybe there really is something wrong with it, regardless, it functions perfectly. Could be the horrible u-joints nissan puts on these trucks, could be the dreaded differential clunk, could be the electronic lockup torque converter, could be shi* in the bed of your truck rolling back and forth that you've been meaning to get out of there for months. who knows
But, really, in your case, at your mileage, you could have crapped out u-joints... you're under warranty, tell them to change everything they can, may as well! Differential, u-joints, ECU reprogramming, front differential, front u-joints, hell... transmission, .. hmm
In my case, truck works perfectly, those slacky drivetrain feelings at low highway speeds I don't even notice anymore, the clink when changing auto tranny positions.. don't even think about it at all. Now as I think about it, my rodeo has all the same issues, eventually got use to them, just over time and 130k miles later, maybe they're not problems at all.
I think any auto transmission ECU controlled is going to have some lag problems when going from park/r/d quickly and maybe get confused between driving positions sometimes. Mine does this too on occasion.. I just give it a good couple seconds with my foot on the brake when forward and reversing or trying to get unstuck, just give it a good amount of brake just before and during changing of gears in tight situations to prevent any hangups. My rodeo does this sometimes, .. reverse, drive, reverse, drive (23,123 point turn).... and...... acting like it's in neutral... and... oh... ohh.. wait for it... OH andd.. there it goes!
