problem first occurred a few months ago when i AWD light stayed on for no apparent reason, had it checked by two mechanics nad an auto electrician and they all seem to think its fine with the light on.

Got in the car today and it stayed on for about 2 sec, then turned off.

Got back in a hour or so later and started the car again and the light is back to staying on.

i cant get my head around it

i noticed again something that i noticed the first time the light decided to stay on was when turning slow out of a park space ect the front wheels feel like they keep trying to grip and it feels like a studdering motion, hard to explain.

Any ideas or thoughts much appreciated.

battery is new, My mechanic and the mechanic were i got the car from both put it on the Nissan diag, was coming up with ABS problems, had a new asb unit installed and same problems, Not sure about the error code tho, im pretty sure the AWD works tho, front girps up nicely in the wet.

bump, need to get this fixed asap,

Noticed the problem again yesterday, turning out of a car park with the wheels at full lock the car make fast little jolts and shakes. And what is the Slip light for? it sometimes flickers on when its jolting.

Just an update to my problem, driving home today and was testing a vibrate in the exhaust at high revs so changing at around 7-8k, then i noticed the awd light turn off, jump in the next day and light is on again, so back to the usal problem, then jumping in and staring the car this arvo the awd light flickered on and of realyl quick with a buzzing comming from the ATTESA pump in the, last about 5sec.

Had a quick chat to my mechanic and he sed its one of the solinoids (sp)? whats are they?

    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
