Hey guys, when i bought the car it had an aftermarket alarm system in it, Dont know what brand or anything, the only thing it said on the original Remote which allowed me to Remote Start the car had a logo called " MANNIX ".

Now that funky looking remote, ive lost it. And just left with this second remote, rather plain looking, but it worked fine for a week after i lost the original one.

Now suddenly it doesnt even want to lock my car or open it anymore?

I thought the battery was dead, but changed that aswell. Still no luck, sometimes it might arm it, dis arm it.. same cycle 4 times. Then stop working again.

I have no idea whats wrong with it, and hate to leave my car un alarmed. My immoboliser still works though, it comes on automatically after 1 minute. And that has a seperate plastic key thing to disarm the immoboliser.

Now, i dont know what to do.

Can anyone help. :D

when you open the remotes case, is there a little pot you can turn? if so, try turning it a little bit in one directions to see if it starts working, if not try it in the other direction. the frequency might be off just a tad.

Im gonna go home tonight, goto late night, then come back and take a pic of the inside of the remote. It doesnt look like there was a dial or anything i could turn inside of it. But under my steering column, i have a box. It has 2 dials on it. and 2 lights.

I'll take a pic of it aswell maybe that will help?

Coz i accidentally turned one of the dials.

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
