Ok this is really hard to explain so bare with me , this is a head F**k and im getting really pisssed off with it atm , aside from the airbox lol

anyway here goes, ive had my car for about 4 mnths and when i got it home i put the fuse in and bled it and after that the 4wd has never worked 2 months ago i pulled down the transfer and found nothing (gearbox biulder of 4 yrs) wrong so i replaced a few bearings and reinstalled it . great lol still no 4wd . i have checked this infamous led you all talk about and mine has never flashed once , ive even checked if its blown LOL , i purchased a torque split controller just for shits and giggles and installed that . blah nothing , the pump pressurises on ingition on , ive bled it a million times, with that plug dissconntected and also bled the pump itself , Also used the multimeter to check the voltages of the plug according to the manual thing ,

Now heres the head f**k , ive had my car sitting in my shed for like 2 weeks and taken it out and the bloody thing is working perfectly , like it never had a problem , the tsc does everything its suppose to and all the garbage ,

what wanna know is what are the most common problems with these systems ? ie the G sensor or ?

can anyone offer some sort of explination coz im so sick of it lol im just worried itll cut out again !!

Are thier anyworkshops who know these systems in and out coz im at the point were i want somone else to tackle it , ,

any ideas boys and girl ?

well if the 4wd light on the dash is not on, and the led on the attessa computer is not flashing, then attessa thinks it is working OK. this means all your sensors, actuators etc etc all have outputs in the expected ranges.

intermittent problem the main reason I could think of would be earthing issues they can be a bit tricky to sort out.

The system is usually pretty fool proof.

Does the light come on when you turn the key on before starting the engine??

Does the tourqe guage still work when accelerating etc.

The are a few things that can cause the problem, a blocked pressure line to the actuator.

A crook actuator,

Worn out transfer case which you have elliminated already

Air in the system,

crook pump. Seen them run and make noise but produce no pressure. When your bleeding the system do you get a strong flow of fluid or a dribble??

Most of the sensors will put the light on if they are not working.

You need to work through the system and diagnosis it. If its working occasionally it may be a stuck actuator though

need to know the lights activities and what the guage does though

i had similair experiences with my a-lsd system

it was terrible for ages - i drained it flat out, ran daigs etc, over and over. drained it heaps, had a diff place pull apart the housing etc

all didnt help and was still toast. i ended up overfilling the resivour in the boot by more than half. left it for like 2 weeks and it worked prefectly after that

go figure

ok what is this acuator your talking about ? and yes it pumps very strong sprayes everywhere when no hose connect to the nipple .. this acuator sounds interesting as some hoses have been screwed with in the engin bay ,

and when i accelerate the gauge moves and i cant spin the rears in motion in the wet , as before it was all over the road,and the guage didnt move ,

keep the input coming i need more ideas to check ,.

cheers pete.

You said you put a fuse in when you first got the car home. Why was the fuse out in the first place? And is it still out?

Did you bleed the system properly after rebuilding the gearbox?

Are you sure the globe for the warning light isn't blown?

Anyway, seeing as it appears to be working now, what's the problem?

Pete, this sounds like the system is working fine.

Yes i know it seems fine now but the question is why ?

as for the post above , the fuse was out so some moron could do burnouts and yes i bled it properly started with the pump (gravity fed ) turned it (undid the plug in the kick panel) reopend the pump let it bleed more. then moved tho the transfer . blah blah ive set more than one of these up before after in stalling gearboxes, Mine is something else its stupid .

im thinking its a plug or acutator rusted as my car was from the snow apperently , im going to get some contact cleaner and have a bash at it LOL

cheers pete .

      Who has a Infiniti Q60, Q50 (V37)?

      Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

      The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week

      Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.

      What ECU are you running? This is probably the biggest question. If it's a PowerFC, I'd probably change the ECU and get something newer that will handle the injectors in a nicer way.
