Hey guys hoping you could help me with a problem i have with my r32 gtst, it cuts in and out say you are driving along normally than it will stutter (kinda like fuel cut) a couple of times and then it will cut out completly and just coast down revs dropping if you put your foot down nothing happens, then it will cut back in with a bit of a stutter and drive ok for about 5 mins give or take, then it will happen again... it doesnt allways completly cut out but it will stutter alot. Checked ecu for error codes and it came up with 34 which i believe is the Throttle Postion Sensor? Could that cause this? other suggestions have been AFM and possibly water in the fuel tank... dont believe it is water in the fuel tank as have already poured a litre of metho in it and left it over night then took it for a drive and still happens.... any help would be apprieciated as need car to get too work on monday lol thanks guys

Error 34: is knock sensors;

Codes:
11 Crankshaft position sensor
12 MAF sensor circuit
13 Coolent temperature circuit
14 Vehicle speed sensor circuit
21 Ignition circuit
31 ECU
34 Knock sensor
43 Throttle position circuit
45 Injector leak
51 Ignition circuit
54 Auto signal to ECU
55 All OK

See my thread if its similar problem

So possibly airflow meter? will have to double check error codes could have possibly been 43.... i know ther is a sensor on the back of the intake plenum that was unplugged (since i got it) and when my brother plugged it back in the throttle position sensor (black box on throttle body on the side thats towards the front of the car) started too make a horrible vibrating noise (not a constant noise, just on and off) on idle, after it made the noise the engine would rev up to about 1200rpm then drop back down to idle wait a little and the proccess would repeat.... i got a pik of the sensor on the back of the intake plenum for people who are confused... thanks guys

    • Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked...

    • I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)
    • 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?
