Hi all

The guy who bought Golgo has asked be about a problem he's been having...

He noticed all the system warning lamps (HICAS, 4WD, A-LSD, ABS) on the dash came on. He stopped the car - turned it off and on again, and all was fine. It happened again about a week later - but this time they stayed on.

He did a brake test and a launch and said it seemed that neither ABS nor the front torque split was working.

Any thoughts?

I never had anything like this happen when I owned the car.

Have told him to reset the ECU (battery disconnect - press brake twice - battery reconnect) but just thought it would be worth asking.

Thanks

James

Does the GTR use the abs sensors to see how fast the wheels are spinning? If so maybe one of them are playing up....

Sorry not sure, just taking a guess. I'm sure someone smarter than me will know...

yes the abs sensor act as wheel speed sensors for the 4wd too.

james, if he has the problem again try and get him a CD copy of the workshop manual and show him how to run the fault diagnosis so he can pinpoint the problem.

      But seriously, can we ask for the results of the "tip a bottle of metho into a nearly empty tank" experiment?

      Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.

      Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.

      Thanks @Duncan Ride height is fine. I think it's almost stock tbh. Happy to share a pic. I don't actually have a regular mechanic as haven't lived in Sydney too long. Could you or anyone recommend any shops in Sydney?
