Hey Guys,

Im a proud new order of a 300GT sedan, but as i was driving home the engine light turned on.

Now when i turn the car on, theres a small announcement in Japaneses about it, as it shows up on the screen.

I was reading on the G35driver website and they said check the oil. ive checked it and even replaced the oil and filter

but the light is still on.

Has any1 had problems with the engine light on the dash?

Thanks,

Joey.

I have had problems with it for a week...

Do this:

Turn ignition on (dont start it)

Wait 3 seconds

Press the accelerator down fully and release it 5 times within 5 seconds

Wait 10 secs

Press and hold the accelerator down fully for 10 secs (at the 10 second mark the engine light should start blinking...

Now it will blink 10 times slowly and then blink the error code...

To clear the codes press the accelerator down fully again and hold for another 10secs let it go wait 10 seconds and turn the ignition off.. This will clear the codes.. but wont stop the light coming back on if there is still a fault somewhere.

You can download the workshop manual from 350z-tech.com it tells you all about it and the codes and what they mean.

Ive been systamatically checkin every damn sensor in mine for the last few days.. If ur in brissy by all means bring it down to the workshop and ill have a look at it for ya..

Hey Mate,

That worked a treat...it took me a few times for it to get into that dionostic mode (or whatever you call it)

The engine light stayed off, no problem with the car. YAY!!!!!!!

1 problem solved...now onto the next...stupid clicking noise on the cd player!!!

Thanks again!!

    • I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.
    • Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.
    • Thanks @jtha7 I will have a look around tomorrow but it is a prick of a spot. These are some photos i tried taking 
    • I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.
    • Hi @Chupapy i had several leaks from coolant pipes being corroded, i also had one leak on back of the head onto transmission. For me that leak was from the turbo water line. Follow the line to the back of the head The hose and metal pipe had perished these are the best pics I took of it at the time
