32gtr 4wd Light, Isthere A Workshop/specialist Arround Dandenong Or A Bit Further


Recommended Posts

hey guys iv got the 4wd light on,on my 32gtr.i wana take it to a workshop/specialst that can fix the problem.is there anyone in dandenong area or a bit further?

help much appreciated thanks guys

Racepace in Bayswater fixed mine,

There might be a leak in your power steering system, even a small one will trigger the light to comes on i think.

Racepace is booked til next year.dont wana wait.i wanted to get it fixed this week as i wanted to go to werribee/geelong this weekend but wanted it running normal.Anywere else i can try guys as i really wana fix this.

Are you experiencing any other problems apart from the light coming up?

Do the diagnostic and see what the problem is and go from there.

Edit: 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). Could be low, but only fill it up with 'Nissan matic-D special blend trans fluid.'

Diagnostic should be as simple as,

1. Park the car by the road side (when the light has come on). 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.

Guy any were else re customs is bookd for ages,need to go some were asap even if sum1 wnts to come have a look is welcome.

Give Amberley Autos in Dandenong a try. I took my R33 GTR there when my ABS/4WD lights were coming on. They have diagnostic equipment to check error codes etc.

amberley autos.they said they do that diagnostic thing just resets some code but not 100% if error will come up.and there booked also.does anyone wana help me try bleed the thing maybe give that a shot.any1 else i can try guys???

Why dont you do what the other guy posted by diong a diag and checking in the book whats wrong with it????Im not suprised no one has offered to directly help as you can only help those that help themselves

the way i read it it looked like 2,8,9 .i dont think its would be the abs as it has been taken out b4 i got it and i have the car for 8months and 4wd problem only started last week.

does any1 know some one that works after hours or even at home that can have a look whats wrong and fix the problem???

well if the abs was taken out that would explain 8 and 9, number 2 might be the issue.

mines had the abs module taken out, and it occasionally gets code 8 and 9 as well.

yer but as i was saying iv had it for 8months and its never been a prob,how did you fix your problem cejay

Well can't really fix 8 and 9 without putting the abs back in. I normally turn the car off and restart it if it's just 8 and 9, I'd try and ask a specialist about your other error code. I have an intermittent problem as well myself but its a different code, in my case it was a g sensor related issue.

so isnt there anyway of getting my 4wd to work even with those errors no abs wires we can cut to stop getting the errors or some kinda short cut to get my 4wd workn till i take it some were?

wouldn't have a clue, just know that my 4wd does work even though I have no abs actuator etc (occasionally it doesn't but normally it's due to another error code) don't know why it's working best to take it to someone who knows more about the system.

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
