RE5R05A 2009-2012 Nissan Pathfinder 4.0L AWD/4WD – Remanufactured 5-Speed Automatic Trans
Description
A 3.84:1 first gear reduction ratio paired with 280 PSI main line circuit pressures transfers 281 lb-ft continuous torque to accelerate regional cargo vans using the Nissan RE5R05A Remanufactured Transmission built for 2009-2012 Pathfinder 4.0L four-wheel drive SUVs. Internal hydraulic circuits hold solid line pressures during severe off-pavement utility work.
Thick-wall A380 aluminum die-cast housings prevent structural bell housing deflection under harsh four-wheel drive transfer loads. Carbon-metallic friction plates run against heat-treated reaction plates within a ductile iron planetary carrier module. Hard-anodized Sonnax valve bore sleeves halt hydraulic fluid cross-leaks across the valve plate. Standard 3/8-inch cooler ports feed a 10.8-quart oil sump, while overall dry weight checks in at 219 lbs.
Key Features of Nissan RE5R05A
Regional service centers choose to buy Nissan RE5R05A remanufactured transmission packages to prevent downtime on demanding municipal response routes. The engineering updates eliminate common internal hydraulic pressure loss issues across all forward gear positions.
- 280 PSI line pressure output provides continuous clamping force during steep four-wheel drive ascents
- 7 direct clutch friction plates handle high-torque transfer case engagements without slippage
- 5-pinion planetary carriers split gear loads across high-strength carburized alloy gear teeth
- 10.75-inch dynamic-spin balanced torque converter features furnace-brazed blades to stop stall ballooning
- 6 pulse-width modulated solenoids direct fluid movement within 40 milliseconds for crisp shifts
- RE5R05A remanufactured valve body includes upgraded sleeve inserts to stop internal fluid loss
- 0.027-inch dialed clutch pack end-play prevents plate dragging and controls internal oil temperature
Continuous Torque Thermal Parameters
Main hydraulic line pressure operates between 215 and 280 PSI while maintaining transmission sump temperatures from 160°F to 190°F. The internal gearset handles 281 lb-ft continuous input torque at 4,000 RPM under Severe Commercial Fleet operation standards. The cooling circuit sheds 475 BTU/min across external coolers. Transmission ratios include 3.84:1 first, 2.35:1 second, 1.53:1 third, 1.00:1 fourth, and 0.83:1 fifth for balanced performance.
Transfer Case Driveline Alignment
A 31-tooth output spline shaft interfaces with four-wheel drive transfer cases without driveline slack. The mechanical parking pawl locks against 1,800 lb-ft static torque on severe surface inclines. Casing mounting faces retain alignment runout within 0.003 inches, protecting transfer case input seals from premature wear.
Operational Relearn Service Parameters
Diagnostic computers must perform clutch volume learn cycles immediately following installation to establish base shift pressures. This unit is not engineered for competitive mud racing, extreme rock bouncing, or loads exceeding gross combined weight limits.
- Check fluid condition on the transmission dipstick at hot idle each shift
- Service transmission fluid and wipe clean the bottom magnets every 30,000 miles
- Inspect external fluid cooler circuit tubes for flow obstructions every 12 months
Warranty Statement Shipping Inventory
Fleet purchase includes a 3-Year / 100,000-Mile commercial fleet warranty for complete mechanical coverage. The sturdy palletized crate contains a remanufactured transmission unit, balanced torque converter, replacement cooler line fittings, vehicle installation instructions, and an authenticated dynamometer test sheet.
