cheers Dale

All good man Ive never purchased brand new before and rarely actually get time to drive the car, mostly the Stagea use to live at the airport. Hense why the wife gets the Jeep and i get the Camry haha... (still feels so gay every time i say it) ATS Maitland not sure if they did a sh!t job or not, truthfully i cant even tell you what he did to the transmission to get it running again but for 3K it should have come out of there ready to cook me breakfast.

I guess ill take the time to say thanks to every one on here who provided me with information and help with my 2 versions of stagea. massive thanks to Scott (scotty nm35) and Craig (jetwreck) for all the work and parts they put into my car. if you guys are ever up in the hunter give us a yell (you both have my number) the whiskey is always top shelf and the accomodation is always free. After much stuffing around with my M35 I managed to kill the tranny. Took it into a tranny specialist who repaired it for 3K. Problem was it was still not working correctly and kept throwing a preassure sensor alarm and 4WD light. Some times when you punched it, it felt like it would try pull real hard and then you would lose every thing for about a second before it kicked in and pulled like a freight train. Made overtaking very defficult. http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/CREADER-VI-OBD-GENUINE-Scan-tool-/261131494973?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item3ccca6663d I purchased one of these code readers ($135 delivered off ebay) to see what was going on but then got jack of the car and traded it for a new Jeep. Never got a chance to actually use it on the stag, I did use it on my wifes 2010 camry that had an O2 sensor alarm, it worked well and cleard the alarm. I'll deffinately be keeping this to use on our current cars. It says its JODB compliant and will work with Asian cars, any one in the hunter wanna give it ago or know someone who has tried it? might be a good little investment if it works. a little info about the Jeep for those of you thinking about trading to something different Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo 3L turbo Diesel (8 speed) this thing is a massive winner so far... i thought it would be lacking power but it to pulls like a freight train and has every option under the sun. My wife drove it and the VW Toureg (both new) and prefered the drivability of the Jeep (i thought she had come down with mad cow disease) untill i drove it. Air bag susspension with three hight levels to choose from full 4WD capability with a low 4WD selectable english TV screen and to top it all off.... paddle shift from factory It to me would be every thing you would expect in a brand new stagea on steroids if they made them. The only downside is my wife gets it and i inherit her Camry lol and the little crystal around the rearview mirror. (so hot right now) Anyway adios amigos its been super fun with its share of super frustrating events.

lol craig... ill keep them till i get bored... will see you in a few weeks, but if another set of coil-overs turn up its not my fault. blame Dale for making it take more then three weeks for sway bays to travel from melbourne to sydney. " Oh no he din't..."

*sorry if dupe* Another option? thoughts? http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/BLITZ-DAMPER-ZZ-R-NISSAN-Stagea-NM35-VQ25DET-10-01-7-04-92424-/151033143603?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item232a46e133

hhhhrrrmm sounds like my issue around 100 KM/S + -,the car shudders like it doesnt know what gear to select. im about to have a shift kit fitted and oil changed ill let you know if this fixes the issue i think it is, which is oil thats lost its viscosity and causing the auto to do silly things. if it does fix this issue try sending a message to Jetwreck, he is doing all of my work as i cant be fkt, coz im lazy................... Actually I just read your sig and it says ur in Auckland and im pretty sure he wont go there unless you pay for it. but it might be worth asking him for a decent oil for your auto unless you know of one your self?

since the cruise control has been unplugged she seems to be running ok... 2 hours of driving and nothing. not holding my breath but will just have to see what happens.

I have Cruise controll, i just unplugged it and will drive it round for a bit to see what happens. ive had the cruise control for ages, this fault has only recently started happening. ill buy the new pedal assembly and throw it in. do you have a part number for us please? cheers

yeah i just realised this thanks scotty and dale, had a go at it and got two codes, (thought you needed to get the code when it was happening) P0121 Throttle Position Sensor/Switch A Circuit Range/Performance Problem P0235 Turbocharger Boost Sensor A Circuit Malfunction Car idles fine when its cold and warm? not sure what the boost issue is, not running any boost controllers. last thing we did to it was swap the turbo for Hi-Flow and put in a boost guage, also i think i have one of your presprung waste gates scotty ? none of these should be throwing a code yeah ?

?

cant get the fault code? dont have a code reader thinger and if i turn the car off it resets its self.

Yeah issue happened again this morning, started car, had no accelerator with a solid engine light. turned ther car off and turned it back on every thing was back to normal took it for a drive down the street and while i was driving (about 60 km/h) same thing happened engine was still on engine light apeared lost my accelerator, slipped it into neutral turned the car off, turned it back on and engine light went away and car was working again. any ideas?

lol man honestly im so lazey when im not at work, i just cant be stuffed trying to fix stuff, id rather just buy a new one and know itll last another 10 years before i have to replace it again (knowing i wont have the car for another ten years also helps). ahhhhh i cant lie with a straight face once i replaced it i opened the other one up by cutting the pop rivets off to see whats inside. What i noticed inside is, i don't think cleaning out will fix any issues, there is only three gears, a DC motor and a Spring. if there was a sensor of some type yeah cleaning mite aid this but its pretty much mechanical besides the DC motor that has a + and - terminal. It has no other electronics.

nah not sure if its fixed the issue. lol was there supposed to be heaps of cleaning involved? coz all i did was remove the old one and put the new one in. I took it for an hour drive and couldnt get it to fault?

lol nah, who is Jesse Streeter?
