when i have been pulling into the carport after work, as i slow down and near full lock and just let the auto pull me into the parking space, the car shudders and looses rpm

i have only noticed this of late with the need to use aircon.

i'm thinking it is the engine at idle turning both the powersteering pump and a/c compressor making it hesitate

is it an issue, common, really worth me worrying?

does it do it any other times? I had an issue where the steering would cause it to lose revs and sometimes stall when driving at low speeds, and very often when pulling into my driveway in a block of units (full lock one way then the other).

First I had the power steering fluid flushed (that was all nissan could find) which kind of alleviated the problem ever-so-slightly for a few days...and then it was back again.

But it turned out to be a build-up of black around the butterfly on the intake, making the butterfly sticky and so it couldn't adjust the idle quick enough. The M35 has no idle air bypass valve so it relies on the ecu adjusting the throttle to let the right amount of air in.

If you have some time, remove the throttle body and give it a good clean out. This fixed the issue 100% for me and straight after that it idled perfectly every time. I did have to do the idle-relearn procedure afterwards to make it idle at the right revs again (i think there's a sticky in the DIY or servicing section at the top of the forum).

Some other guys had the same or similar problem although not all of them were the same cause...

If you find the solution, let us know :cool:

thanks for that - it is very occasional but when it happens you notice it.

i'll give that a try one day when i'm bored and inspired - it causes no issues, just curious to why.

your example seams very plausable i'll try that first

cheers

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
