hey all,

having a wierd prob with the auto .. not sure whats causing it, wondering if anyone else has had a similar prob

usually only happens when the car is cold, after about 5 mins of driving, and only if i have accelorated hard (usually)

the prob is it wont change out of first, will just keep revving away... one way around it is to use the "power / snow" switch to force it into 2nd gear, it will change and hold in that .. but not change up. tried using the shifter to manually change, and doesnt do a thing. then after a few mins of that it will change into 3rd and all will be fine.

any ideas ppl?

cheers

from what i was told when i had the shift kit installed they did a service at the same time. i seen ya in adelaide, i had it done @ MV auto's, they seemed pretty good so i wouldnt wanna think they didnt do something when they said they did ??

no harm in having another done tho ...

cheers for the advice

hmm... i was thinking it could be an electronic prob, but i didnt consider the ecu having any affect on it?

i guess it wouldnt hurt at all to do a reset?

does the trans have its on comp, and if so would that be "reset" if the supply is removed too? i wouldnt think the auto comp (if it has one) would learn **** all tho, so it would have nothing to reset back to.

so i explained it ok then if you had the exact same probs i guess ....lol

cheers

i got an alarm installed within first week of buying car, but cant say i noticed it until months later i think.

first would happen once in a blue moon, its progressivly happened more and more often til now when its on kinda a daily basis, perhaps every 2 - 3 days

was it exactly the same prob that i described, if so did it happen to you everytime you would drive the car? or occasionally like mine

cheers again

shannon, my problem was EXACTLY what your talking about. I disconnected my battery overnight, so it may have had an effect on the auto's computer also.

Maybe you have been driving your auto a little like a manual?, holding it in 2nd till redline? *shrugs*

anyway, try disconnect the battery overnight, if it doesnt solve your problem i would suggest a tranny flush.

Shannon:

Just wondering if you had an aftermarket BOV....

...too weak a spring on the valve can cause it to stay slightly open on partial throttle, ie mild acceleration.....and that seems to cause the auto box to stay in gear ever so often...

...easily solved by uprating the spring, or adding a washer or two to shim it out....

If you have a standard recirc BOV, and think it might be weak, borrow someone else's, or blank it off for a bit...just take it easy if you do...

Hope to help..

      Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily.

      Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?

      What Duncan said sounds right. Also, it looks like they only have the driver's mat. Not the rest. Because looking at the diagram: KG4911 is just the mat for the driver. KG4900 is the full set if I'm not mistaken and discontinued.   But, it looks like they may still have the full set for the manual S2. Might be worth checking for the other models as well as they seem slightly different. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/epc/nissan-japan/stagea/wgnc34/6649-rb25det/misc/G49 Man, I'm tempted.

      I dunno about that as a blanket statement. Pitwork is Nissan's "Nissan genuine" thing, and for stuff like timing belts, I have found them to be excellent. Of course, for things like oil filters, you always use proper trusted brands anyway, not whatever the OEM has taken to using.

      Ahhhh... If you were putting 12V to the led in there, that's likely made it very unhappy. Chances are how you put power, was 12V across an LED that's meant to only have about 20mA through it at peak, and a forward voltage of about 1.8 to 2.4 volts. That circuit is likely only a 3V3 circuit, and will have a resistor in series with the led too. That's my guesstimate on that light, without having touched one.
