Thats the drivers side. Maybe because there is more pressure in bank two due to the return flow regulator being on that side (I think it is)?

Thats my 2c!

But that would not explane why it threw up the fault code would it?

There is only one O2 sensor on the turbo, bank one. It is seeing a lean condition and can't add enough fuel to compensate.

If the o2 sensor was buggered it could cause this along with bad fuel economy, it needs to be checked for oscillation, otherwise you should do as Cam mentioned and check the filter and fuel pump.

After doing some googling some other things that popped up with this code were:

MAF, vac leak, PCV and the fuel filter as Cam said.

Scotty:

Fuel economy has been ok, well as good an an M35 can be. Have not seen a spike as such.

When you mention the O2 sensor do you mean the one on the dump yes? If it was this would it not effect both banks not just throw up an error on bank 1?

FYI: The issue came about from normal driving conditions in peak hour, not giving it much stick at all. When I got home I checked the fault code and then cleared it, ran the car for 5-10 min and it has yet to come backl.

Cheers.

There is only one o2 sensor (the one in the dump), bank one is it's name. The 3.5's have bank one and two as they run twin o2 sensors. If it doesn't come back you may be fine.

O2 sensors only have an 80,000k life so there is a good chance it needs changing anyway.

Genuine.

Have the books and also the de-reg papers that show the kms every time it was serviced and everytime it was registered. When I received it the kms were only at 29XXX.

Yeah I paid a bit more for it but got a very clean car, inside and out. I have seen other M35's, most other M35's I have seen have very dirty under carriage and engine bays. This is so clean you could eat off any surface, the previous owner must of only drove it once in a blue moon.

Cool, good to hear. Mine had genuine 59k on it with de reg paper and also was very clean under the car and engine bay. Only problem I found was a chocolate milk stain on the back seat from kids. When I removed the rear seat I found little girls hair clips and collector cards, so was deffinately the family wagon.

Hi everyone

a +38 offset will sit inside an ARX more? 18x8

if will, can I run bolt on spaces to make it sit flash?

The spacers you buy will have to be custom if the wheels you are fitting are stock. This is due to the hub centering ring on the hub and groove in the wheel being the same. Normally when running a bolt on spacer you are using aftermarket wheels which have a larger bore and that's what off the shelf spacers centering hub on the wheel side will allow for.

Hope that makes sence...

Actually, most of the off the shelf spacers will have both hub centering bore/rings the same size.

If you go different hub bore size on new wheels; it's normally up to you.

The thinnest custom spacer I've ever machined for a Nissan with hub centering rings on the outside, and matching bores on the inside is 8mm; anything below that, and the centering ring on the outside has no material behind it.

I've never seen an off the shelf spacer with centering bore/rings thinner than 10mm, so Rafael should be ok.

Could you please point me in the direction of these as most places I've been to in Adelaide only stock ones with a 66.1 inner but a 73.1 or other outer meaning you can't space out stock wheels.

    • Thought I would get some advice from others on this situation.    Relevant info: R33 GTS25t Link G4x ECU Walbro 255LPH w/ OEM FP Relay (No relay mod) Scenario: I accidentally messed up my old AVS S5 (rev.1) at the start of the year and the cars been immobilised. Also the siren BBU has completely failed; so I decided to upgrade it.  I got a newer AVS S5 (rev.2?) installed on Friday. The guy removed the old one and its immobilisers. Tried to start it; the car cranks but doesnt start.  The new one was installed and all the alarm functions seem to be working as they should; still wouldn't start Went to bed; got up on Friday morning and decided to have a look into the no start problem. Found the car completely dead.  Charged the battery; plugged it back in and found the brake lights were stuck on.  Unplugging the brake pedal switch the lights turn off. Plug it back in and theyre stuck on again. I tested the switch (continuity test and resistance); all looks good (0-1kohm).  On talking to AVS; found its because of the rubber stopper on the brake pedal; sure enough the middle of it is missing so have ordered a new one. One of those wear items; which was confusing what was going on However when I try unplugging the STOP Light fuses (under the dash and under the hood) the brake light still stays on. Should those fuses not cut the brake light circuit?  I then checked the ECU; FP Speed Error.  Testing the pump again; I can hear the relay clicking every time I switch it to ON. I unplugged the pump and put the multimeter across the plug. No continuity; im seeing 0.6V (ECU signal?) and when it switches the relay I think its like 20mA or 200mA). Not seeing 12.4V / 7-9A. As far as I know; the Fuel Pump was wired through one of the immobiliser relays on the old alarm.  He pulled some thick gauged harness out with the old alarm wiring; which looks to me like it was to bridge connections into the immobilisers? Before it got immobilised it was running just fine.  Im at a loss to why the FP is getting no voltage; I thought maybe the FP was faulty (even though I havent even done 50km on the new pump) but no voltage at the harness plug.  Questions: Could it be he didnt reconnect the fuel pump when testing it after the old alarm removal (before installing the new alarm)?  Is this a case of bridging to the brake lights instead of the fuel pump circuit? It's a bit beyond me as I dont do a lot with electrical; so have tried my best to diagnose what I think seems to make sense.  Seeking advice if theres for sure an issue with the alarm install to get him back here; or if I do infact, need an auto electrician to diagnose it. 
    • Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber
    • I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option 
    • You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)
    • I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.
