Has anyone encountered this problem? My r32 gtr's 4wd isnt working properly. it works and then stops working. the 4wd lights up in the dash and then the 4wd stops working. I have had it checked its not mechanical, its an electrical problem. Something obviously triggers the 4wd to stop working. Can anyone please help?

Check the amount of fluid in the reservoir - in the boot - right hand side there is a panel (opposite to where the jack is stored on the left).

If this is low the sensor will disable 4wd and the light on your dash will come on. Needs to be filled up with Nissan matic-D special blend trans fluid.

When all else fails get the computer to tell you what is wrong. :P

The procedure is simple & applies to anyone who has the HICAS light come on.

1. Park the car by the road side. Do not turn it off.

2. Open the boot.

3. Look at the underside of the ATTESSA computer & count the number of times the light flashes. It will flash for anything up to 20 odd times before stopping for a few seconds.

4. Remember the number then look it up in the workshop manual.

5. Then follow the diagnostic/repair procedure as detailed there.

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
