Did anyone else on the waiting list get an email from JPNZ about the workshop manual?

They're about to start work, want a $50 deposit, manual will cost $150NZ and will take 2 months.

Anyone keen?

i got an email, again im not puting a deposit becouse from all their other work im unsure what exactly will be translated, and what is including, and the quality of the job, if its done well, im willing to pay 150 but not going to pay 50 sight unseen for somthing that may be worthless

Yeah, agreed.

I think it's taking the piss a bit to wait this long with nothing, then expect 33% upfront with no guarantee of the content, or quality.

Their previous reputation certainly doesn't reassure me.

Hey Josh,

I have little luck with search also - it appears I suck at the internet, lol.

Do you have an oil leak from the drivers' side? So far I've not heard of anyone with that issue. I'm about to pull the plenum & passenger side valve cover off mine to 'fix' the leak for the third time.

13270AL612 – Passenger side valve cover gasket

13270AQ800 – Driver side valve cover gasket

Edit: Too slow (got distracted) - now there is more results for the search function :)

Well I hope you don't have the same problem as me then. My plastic cover is flexing slightly as it's tensioned down, so that the gasket isn't compressed enough in the middle (between two bolts positions) to stop oil leaking out. I'm going to have to take more drastic measures to fix it.

I guess what I'm saying is 'if it aint leaking, don't fix it", lol.

Ok guys I have a bit of an 4WD problem with my M35. Last week I had the tyres flipped on the rims and while doing it the tyre centre split the side wall of one tyre (their fault and trying to get them to replace it at their cost) Now they fitted a temporary s/hand tyre in the same 245/45-18 size but its a Bridgestone instead of the Kumho ku31 it had.

The Bridgestone has 2mm less tread depth than the KU31. Its only been on for a couple days and now the car has started randomly throwing up the 4WD warning light.

Could the attesa system be that picky that the s/hand bridgestone is causing the problem? I checked the fluid level and its fine, car drives as normal but when the lights on if I select syncro mode it won't drive the front wheels at all. If I turn the car off and restart it sometimes the light will not appear and then if I select syncro mode it works as normal.

Any help is appreciated as Im worried now that if they replace that 1 tyre with a new KU31, that tyre will be 2mm more tread depth than they other 3 and still cause this problem, so I may need to try and get another tyre replace so both tyres on the same axel are the same rolling diameter.

So does anyone know exactly what veriance Nissan have given the attesa system for rolling diameter?

    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
