[[d a n n y]] Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 I cant believe this has happened the next day i put my new rims on.. getting on the M2 i accelerated put the foot down.. car looses power whilst gearing down. no power at all i can hear the turbo spooling but it's making a wierd noise instead of the familiar high pitch noise... the noise sounds like a electrical fan thats on it's way out everytime the turbo kicks in... So far i 've checked the codes on the car and it seems the Air Mass Senesor is faulity and also have another code on the Manifold Absolute pressure. ive ordered a new AFM but people whom had turbo trouble in the past please shed some light to me.. Do u guys think it's new turbo time?? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/279106-i-think-my-cars-ed/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

iamhe77 Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 (edited) hmmmm without seeing I think it may be +1. Does it just make a high pitched sound or is it a sort of "Lllllolololololololololololo" type sound when under "boost"? Not only that, but we had another M35 turbo go last week, exhaust wheel sheared itself from the shaft... Rumour has it, that is rather common... Never heard of it happening myself (Let me know how you go Jase. Hope the info helped.)

I am wondering how long an RB's OE turbo would last at 12-15psi... 100,000km's? Doubt it. Not to mention the timing belt... Don't you wish you had a chain instead? Thats why i stuck to an RB stagea... coulda gone the volvo looking new one, but f**k that. LOL I suppose that is why you are selling it. Must be real happy with your C34, ay?

MyStag260 Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 Could be just on totally the wrong track here, but i have found with a manual car anyway, when you put power down get a whole lota noise and such but no power its clutch, not too sure how this works with an auto but could it be something there?

andy65b Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 Hi Danny I don't know if this any help to you but I have a spare turbo that I am renting (for lack of a better word), so you could get this rebuilt and then just do a straight swap on the turbo. The change over cost will be $50, provided I am given a turbo with in tact housing on return. Let me know if you are interested. Send me a PM.

Danny - check your intake piping, you'll be pissed if you start pulling everything apart expecting a turbo fault & discover a loose hose clamp, or split pipe... WRT to the RB OE turbo at 15psi - not very bloody long. But it's not designed to, whereas the M35's is (theoretically...) Yes, I wish I had a chain I was brought up on the L/FJ series, and the double-row chains are a 'good thing'! (don't get me started on the SR timing gear - the Nissan engineers were having an off-day when they designed that one) Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/279106-i-think-my-cars-ed/#findComment-4714520 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rumour has it, that is rather common... Never heard of it happening myself This is rather common in the 'frog eye' WRX Subarus with the TD04, I know 3-4 WRX drivers who've had this happen, havn't heard of a NISSAN with the same issue though.

pixel8r Posted July 15, 2009 Share Posted July 15, 2009 With stat's like that, it's confirmed the C34 is more reliable than the M35 and a much better car.(let the fight begin) My s2 turbo died at less kms than my M35 has now. The M35 turbo is likely very similar to the one used in the s2 stageas. Either way they are both ceramic and suffer the same limitations. The M35 only runs ~11 psi out of the factory so to my mind the only danger occurs when increasing the boost by either a boost guage or altering pressure somewhere in the system (ie. free-er flowing exhaust). Of course there are some that are just unlucky, but that happens to the s2's as well (happened to mine at stock boost). We could always run 7-8psi boost on the M35, but then we'd have to put up with s2 performance (just teasing - i used to own one). Other than this I've yet to see or hear of evidence of any model of stagea having any "weak points" reliability-wise.

After a quick search I found 1 thread regarding this - the button still worked but just not the AUTO part. Sorry Danny, offtopic... Hope you get it sorted...
