When the car is at idle (cold or at operating temp) and you put it in gear the revs jump immediately to 2000rpm, if you keep the clutch engaged and take it out of gear this does not happen, only when you put it in gear, any gear?

This problem is driving me nuts, I have checked for vacuum leaks, installed new hoses, new rubber plug for inlet rocker cover etc etc.

Yet to clean IAC unit, waiting for gasket.

Standard COILS, NGK Ir's 1.1mm (fairly new), BLitz BOV, pretty stock std setup.

I have read about a neutral switch problem but this is the opposite I believe, it is only when in gear.

I still have a high cold start idle too at 2000rpm.

Please HELP!!

This sound like an idle air problem

i.e. the ECU doesnt know how much air to take in at idle, so it "hangs" and "searches" for an idle.

I've got the exact problem with my x-trail at the moment.

Its an easy fix for me, just need an ECU reset.

i dont know how stag ECUs work, but someone here should know how to perform an "Idle Air Relearn", most nissan cars have the function.

BUT, could be the IAC valve, try that first!

From what I've heard, RB engines have this problem heaps, and its solved by cleaning the IAC, theres a How-to somewhere on here...

Hey mate,

Yeah there seems to be a lot of threads on this one, no definite 'this is how you fix that exact problem', so I have to try all methods I guess, I just read a post where a guy had the same type issue, it was his ECU connector was not plugged in properly, if that is all it is whoot! easy fix, although I have never been in there to disrupt anything yet! :)

I for the first time connected to the car last night using 'OBD Data Scan full version', very interesting read outs, everything appears ok voltage wise, could be an issue with neutral swtich?, cyclinder 1 has a really bad result when tested in a 6 cyl test. Did an ECU reset and cleared all codes!

I received fault codes 17? and 43 (boost sensor) so all in all that is okay until I figure out what is wrong with the boost sensor??

I need to set my TPS correctly with a multimeter this may also be wrong, but looking forward to cleaning the IAC as soon as I get the gasket or goo and time this weekend.

I must search the car again for more vacuum leaks, as I can still hear a very slight hissing noise around the front plenum area, all hoses are new now, all are fixed tight, so maybe a gasket leak from the plenum is adding to the whole equation/problem or a dodgy injector?

Ahh cars eh! :D

As I have 2 x r34's, I have not driven the turbo one for about a week now, every night after work thought I have been checking the car for the problem and testing, resetting the TPS voltage which I still do not think is giving me any decent readings. (not sure how my multimeter is to read between .045 & 5

I decided to start her up and let her warm for a drive, I have to unplug the TPS switch for the idle to drop down to normal (could be a TPS replacement now), I took her for a good run and she is driving very nicely until I stop and put in gear, the same thing happens the car revs high and in neutral it is fine. Just as I was putting her back in the garage, I was halfway to backing in (ramp is on a slope) and it stopped reving at high when in gear, I sat for about 2 mins testing this (in and out of gear and it appeared fixed) as soon as I got on the flat when inside the garage it started again. I am thinking there must be some cable not earthingn now that is causing this, casue when on that angle it the problem completely went away. I gather there are many earths on this vehicle, but where to start???? It must be hanging lose somewhere.

Ah forgot to mention that when checking TPS using the white wire with Ignition ON/Engine OFF on RB25DET NEO, I do not seem to get a good reading, my power voltage it fine at 5V so I know at least it is has power to work, but getting a reading on my multimeter is sooo hard to get the magic .045v, it really does not matter if I move the TPS clock or anti as the voltage really does not change that much .3 -.4, perhaps I am not using the correct setting to get a reading on the meter, although I have tried all settings?

Still does not explain however why when the TPS is disconneted and idle goes to normal that when a gear is engaged the revs go straight back to 2000rpm, I will get some gasket goo today and clean IAC unit while I am at it. I still reckon there is a bad earth hanging somewhere, any ideas guys??

Hmm i have code 17 & 46 also, I think these are both fuel injection circut/grounding problems?

I really cannot find a definitive answer on these fault codes for the rb25det neo 6 engine, anyone out there know??

Thanks

I don't know about the stagea, but for the gtt those codes are,

17: abs-tcs control unit circuit.

46: throttle motor sensor signal circuit.

Hey mate, just to clarify this is happening on my R34 GTT 1999, good to hear from another fellow KIWI.

Is the 46 code relating to the other sensor opposite the TPS on the TB of the NEO6?

  • 3 months later...

Sorry to revive this thread but I have this exact same problem with the idling in gear at 2000rpm (and on cold start) but normal idle when neutral and stationary.

It has only recently developed and I have not done any new mods recently to the car to cause it.

I have a consult cable and I have no error codes. I reset self learn and the problem went away for 1 trip and then came back on next startup.

Was this problem ever fixed?

Car: R33 GTST RB25DET

    • 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.
