V35 Coupe Seat Question

Hi,

I have a 2004 350GT coupe. Amazing handling car.

I remembered reading about the fuel flap release on this site, prior to purchasing, but got caught out with the "Won't start unless your foot is on the clutch trick" For some reason Jumper leads didn't help...

Have had the power window problem also.

Anyway, one quirk I was looking for some help with is the Seats. Whenever I open a seat to put the kids in the back, it doesn't go back to the same position. The seatback is more upright than before accessing the rear (same whether accessing from the rear or the side lever). Not a major thing, but annoying, so is this the same on all coupes???

Is there any fix?

the seats have no memory, so i think it goes back to a default position... cant be fixed...

I thought those clever Japanese would have thought of that, they think of most other things. Maybe on the V36?

No worries, thanks for reply.

Yeah i think seat memory was introduced in later models, so it should be implemented in the V36. after all this is a entry model luxury cruiser... :P

clarify your question a bit. they do go back tot he position you left them however the seat back does not. if you have a lean on it then it will go to the first notch when clicked back. irony being that the USDM car had full memory seats.

      After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive

      Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.

      I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.

      No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
