so its not at any particular rpm, but more so when the engine is under load?

I think it could be:

Could be the air volumes being measured by the ecu are wrong, this being caused by a boost leak or a fault in an electrical component (AFM, AAC, O2). either way, the air thats getting pumped thru the engine isnt matching what the ecu is reading. I dont think it would be a dirty pod filter or a collapsing pipe between the AFM and turbo because you're making full boost.

OR

Fuel system problem. when the engine demands alot more fuel when on increased boost from cruising or idle, the fuel pump might be bad and not be keeping up, or the lines/filters might be partially blocked only allowing enough fuel thru for idle and cruise mode....

So I'd check: AFM, O2 sensor, AAC valve - these bits you may have cleaned but could they just be broken? Fuel pump, all fuel lines, fuel filters, fuel injectors. All air lines and hose clamps, fuel pressure reg. to plenum line in particular. Alot of this shit you've done so on goes the process of elimination! :thumbsup:

hope i could help :D

cheers

do you mean nissan Consult??

also the cat apparently has been replaced during compliance last year, if it has been replaced can it still be blocked taking into consideration that the car hasn't been driven more than 5000kms

The Cat should be OK but a dose of super fuel or a bad misfire can destroy a cat in minutes, a solid knock can also break up the guts and send fragments into the system. A good exhaust shop should be able to pressure test before and after the cat and any other muffler in the system. On the cheap grab a dud cat from a complier, Knock the guts out, bolt on and test run, same deal if you can borrow a known good system to test.

thanks guys for all your inputs but i took it to a guy i know who has a diagnostic computer and he plugged it in and said that the knock sensor needed reseting and it needed a tune.

does anyone know where the knock sensor is located? and how they tune the cars without an aftermarket management system.

there are 2 knock sensors on the block under the inlet manifold . one is near the front and 1 near the back of the block .u cant adjust the sensors , maybe they had some dirt on them and he cleaned them .

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
