R32 Gtr 4wd

[32gtrsteve]

hi i have a r32 gtr and for some reason it keeps putting it self into rwd at anytime. the light will come on in the dash and stay on till completely turn it off and then most of the time the light justs comes striaght back on.

Does anyone what is f**ked or is it the cars way of saying do a skid ?

Could be a number of things.

The reservoir in the RHR quarter, is it full?

What size tyres are you running front and rear?

Have you got a mix of new and old tyres?

Could be a a sensor gone.

Have you got a copy of the workshop manual? there are some good trouble shooting steps in there.

Feel free to arrange a time to head over to Burnie if you want someone to have a look for you.

Always happy to meet another GTR owner and help out if possible.

i'd say that also..

The tyres are 235/45r17 all round and are the same the car was running for about 4 months befor (stephen corrected me if Im wrong)

My first thought was wheel speed sensor as well but its not throwing the abs light

as for reservoir Ill lol if thats all it is due to the facted that he should be smart enough to have topped that up when he bleed it. but it might not be bleed properly

When was it bled and does this coincide with the warning light issue???

Its easy enough to bleed, if you know what your doing.

If you dont, then its real easy to get it all wrong as well.

attessa is very sensitive to earth, and voltage. My car pulled the abs wires into the compresser, which kept blowing the a/c fuse, and also made the 4wd fail. I've heard of people having earthing problems that cause it to fail too.

also when it fails, look at the attessa ecu under the rear parsel shelf, and count the number of led flashes.

Same way its been bleed the same the other 3 times the gearbox has been out. tho the car has had the whole motor out and has only just got going again. from what he was telling me to day its intermittent and if you stop and turn the car off its fine for a bit then it will throw the light and be in rwd again

thanks for the help. think i have fixed it now. i bleed it again and cleaned all the abs sensors and been driving around all day and it hasn't done it again plus the 4wd seems to kick in quicker
