Can and how do you reset the tps switch on a 2005 pathfinder auto tranmission?
The tps (throttle position switch), comes preset from the factory. It shouldn't need any adjusting unless someone played around with it. On Toyotas they are security marked so you don't touch them because then you loose your warranty.
If you just want to reset your ECM(computer) then the easiest way is to disconnect the battery for a few minutes, but remember that you will loose the radio security code so you will need to know your radio security code beforehand. I think another way to reset ECM is to remove the fuse marked ECM or CCM or something similar for a few minutes.
After reseting ECM, turn ignition switch to the ON position (Car OFF) and depress accelerator all the way to the floor TWICE. This will recalibrate throttle position switch. Well that's how you do it on Toyotas anyway.

Loss of power
Disconnect the actuator and see if the problem goes away. If it does, replace the actuator. If the problem persists then look at MAP sensor as the possible culprit

2005 pathfinder lose oil presure
Have you removed the oil pressure sending unit and hooked up a mechanical gauge to verify oil pressure? They also sell an inexpensive oil pressure tester that easily attaches to the oil filter mount. The oil pump is regulated. Did you inspect the oil pressure regulator? Debris can cause the regulator to malfunction. Also a weak or broken spring could be at fault as well. Give me as much specific information as you can and I will try to help you narrow it down, if I can. Good luck.
Milky antifreeze but car accelerate just fine only at 20 mph it shifts...
You should go right away to a nissan dealership. Your Trans cooler may be mixing your coolant and transmission fluid. After time your transmission will start shifting hard or have a delayed shift. you could also drain some trans fluid out yourself and see if it looks like your coolant. It will look pink and possibly foamy.
Not starting
Not that I know of. And even if there was, it should still crank.
Do you have power at the starter and have you tried cranking it in neutral ?
