Hey people

So i think i have a coil pack problem, i did a quick search through the posts on here and it seems as if this is the go but i thought i would just make sure and ask others if they had the same things happen.

This has only happened to me twice, both in the last month. The first time i had just got out of the drive way and all of a sudden the TCS and SLIP dash lights came on as did the check engine light. The check engine light went off, but TCS and SLIP stayed on. The car still drove fine, so i got where i needed to go and then shut the car off. When i came back to the car i turned it on and it started no problems, but the A/T (Auto/triptronic) light started flashing, it flashed a number of times and then went off. After that i drove the car around no worries then yesterday i got in the car turned it on, reversed down the drive way and as i reached the bottom the TCS and SLIP lights came on again and stayed on, and the check engine light came on and then went off. I drove the car back up the driveway and turned it off. I then turned it straight back on and the A/T light flashed a number of times (16 i think i counted). I turned it off, then back on and it started fine, no warning lights at all.

As i said i think it is a coil pack problem from what i have read, the car is going in for a service Wednesday (in 2 days) so i want to get the problem fixed then. So i'm just making sure this is the problem and that others had the same type things happen to them. Also how did others work out which coil was bad?

*****EDIT*******

I ran a Self-Diagnostic and got Error Codes

26 -----Turbo Pressure Senor Signal Circuit: Turbo pressure sensor output voltage is aprox 4.8V or greater open circuit or less than 0.06V closed circuit for a predetermined time.

43----- Throttle Position Sensor Signal Circuit: Throttle position sensor output voltage is aprox 4.7V or greater open circuit or less than 0.06 short circuit for a predetermined time while park/neutral position switch is OFF and vehicle speed is 4 km/h or higher.

So aparantly these are my problems, but i have also heard of people having coil pack problems and the 21 code not showing up and them getting other fault codes instead. Yet when the coils were changed the other issues went away. Has anyone had these fault/error codes on there 34 before?

Cheers

doesnt sound like coil packs. Do you have any hesitation around 4-5000RPM? This would be cracked coil packs.

Sounds like an issue with your traction control. Could be a faulty wheel speed sensor. The flashing dash light sounds like it was indicating the fault code. Get the service place to do a fault code diagnostic, or search the forums here for how to do it yourself.

cheers,

Hey mate

I had exactly the same problem the tcc & slip & check engine lights call came on, the car would sound really deep sorta like a rexy and if you turned it off and on it would sometimes fix it.

however I got the coil packs checked out and yeah they were stuffed

heres a thread all about it

OK seeing as you've got error 26, 43 and had 16 I'd say it's the voltage feed to all three (they all share the same 5v from the ECU)

Most likely it's on one of the sensor as they daisy-chain to each other, so if one is unplugged it can take the others out.

Unplug and replug your TPS sensor, Turbo pressure sensor and secondary throttle sensor and see how it goes.

Mechanic has checked it all out and he can't find a single fault with the car. I belevie he has done this but might pay just do double check. Whgere can i find these sensors??

Hey, I've got this problem too. When the TC light on means my TC is not working. My car slide in wet. I took my car to Nissan and they can't find any problem. If anyone know how to fit it, pls let me know.

Also, My R34, since I changed HKS exhaust and trust in-take then I have missed fire especially when pushing hard in 1 & 2 gears. Anyone have any idea of how to fit it?

Hi Sean, How you run a Self- Diagnostic?

    • That sounds like an excellent idea. But total self-sufficiency means exactly that. You have no-one else to blame when your system faults out and you have no power for a week or two while it gets fixed. You'd have to go the whole hog and get a diesel genny and all the switchover gear, to get you through such times. And, despite the fact that over 20 years, my system has been pretty reliable**, I have seen so many inverter explosions (or less dramatic deaths), panel and roof JB fires, and so on, over that time, to know that the stuff is the same as any other bulk Chinese manufactured stuff. The failure rate is well above zero - both on the equipment and on behalf of the meth addled installation labour force. And then..... warranty and means of redress against the supplier you bought the gear from. Best I can tell is that only a handful of solar companies are still around within 5 years of starting their advertising pitch. They disappear and phoenix like crazy. So, as per 1st paragraph, I suspect the only way to is go balls deep and spend maybe 2-3 times as much as you might think, so that you have every base covered. Plus, know and understand your gear intimately, so you can diagnose problems, sort them out yourself, etc, etc. Plus, probably have to consider upgrading various parts as the years pass, to maintain compatibility with newer stuff, performance and reliability, etc, etc. Whereas, remaining attached to the grid has an ongoing cost that keeps going up even if you use bugger all power from it. But it does provide the fallback in case of the worst case with your own gear. You either pay up front or as you go, I suspect.
    • Add more solar panels to the array. Call the electricity company and tell them you're moving out... Live off grid electric wise
    • Hi Jasmine. How's the war going?
    • I'm extremely suspicious of the VPP stuff. Best I can tell, you surrender any and all control of your panels and battery to the VPP, because there's no way that anyone could write a sufficiently useful set of "rules" as to how much you would be willing to let out of your export meter at any given time. If one of your main interests is to have enough in your battery every evening to get you through the night without having to import, you could easily find yourself with nothing in your battery at the end of the day, or part way through the night, and then be paying import pricing instead of paying nothing. I cannot see how this cannot come to pass.
    • majority aftermarket is an10 yes, but majority of OEM is An12 r35 OEM cooler lines at close to an 12, the hard line that car uses is almost 20mm  Porsche OEM is also AN12   i figure, if our power levels are close to 1000hp, then AN12 should be a must if many OEM standard power vehicles use AN12
