hey folks, ok basicly my car is stalling while im moving, an it tends to be in 5th gear and when im clutching in, thats when this has happend, luckily ive been driving in a straight line because the steering goes when this happens so ive been lucky so far but i need to get it fixed asap, anyone know why and how to fix this?

note i recently installed a pod and put new oil in the gearbox, theres another thread on here regarding the oil i put in but no one has answered and i realy need this solved, basicly in regards to the oil i put in 3 litres according to the help from autobarn, and that worries me alone.

Anyone know whats going on and how to fix this?

Ok thats really weird cause my car just started to do that, out of the blue really but has happened only twice will post if anything knew happens otherwise will be following this thread closley

i forgot to mention it sputters while cruising, like vvvvvv.vvvv.vvvvvvvvv.vv every now and then. also, i was testing it a bit and it only stalls when i hold the clutch in to long when changing gears. the revvs just drop like a rock, so i goto keep blipping the velocitator to keep it from stalling, any difference in story?

cheers

Mine is stalling a little often at the moment too... ...but when I go from 1st to Neutral... ...and mostly while turning while doing that... ...eg three point turns...

But it's been a while since I got it serviced (damn cash flow)... ...So I think it will be picked up in my next service...

its the afm 100% you probably havent clamped the pod on properly. Ages ago id taken the lid off my airbox to get that gay woosh sound and for about a day the car would stall like urs too until the computer kind of worked out what the hell was going on and it went away. If the car wasnt doing it prior to the pod being installed then chances are its something to do with that.

good luck!

cheers mate, i think your right, i had a glance last night, and i might have found some spots, i really thought it was the computer cracking the shits, but still hasnt worked out the right amount of fuel/air ratio. awell, will pull apart and start again lol.

oh P.S is there a way to reduce the WHOOSH sound the pod makes? it sounds a bit wankish lol

PEACE

    • Hi from Canada, Both of my calipers are starting to fail. My car is a 2005 M35 Stagea ARX and I can't seem to find any parts or any cross reference caliper that would fit my car. Is there a company or a similar caliper that would fit and I could replace the OEM one. Or if anyone knows where I can find a new OEM. Any help is very appreciated. Let me know!
    • Maf is a question mark but TPS  I have set at 0.47, the fact that I’m getting proper voltage range out of it with the key on leads me to believe it’s functioning properly. I’m getting proper voltages on basically everything. I still need to look up voltage ranges for z32 maf and test that 
    • Honestly no not at all, but it’s a very basic tune, it’s stock injectors q45 tps and z32 maf. Other than that it’s a completely stock base map. The file is from nistune and from my understanding if it was tune related I would be able to unplug maf and tps and it would still start even if it was a really shitty start. I have tried starting it with coolant temp, maf, and tps unplugged none of those 3 togethor or individually changes anything

    • What does it look like with highway driving? And yes, I had a similar thought as Duncan. It looks quite similar in my Stagea and I have made myself accept it as normal. Might have to look into it some day   Highway gets as low as 10l/100km on my end so I'm not as worried about it being a mechanical issue. More likely just the tune on the haltech.
