I have had this short 'grinding' noise intermittently for several months. Low speed, first gear, once or twice low speed second maybe?

I have only used LC2 a couple of times (no not understating to protect myself)

Anyone else had this here?

Taking car to Nissan prior to next track day.

lol whats FWIW stand for, i cant work it out.

Just sounds like that its a pretty rare issue at this point in time, probably one of those things that happens to every car model, there are so many things that can go wrong that its amazing that the r35 has such few things that are actually failing on them, thje more parts and gizmos in a car, the more chance that something can go wrong.

Don't worry about it untill it happens to your car or you will always be paranoid looking for something to break

the GR6 transmitions not very smooth at low speeds but several R35s already have transmition problems like while they are still new and not even driven hard. have your tranny checked, hopefully its just the normal operation. we do have customers coming in complainin about some rattly or grinding noise before as well.

this occured with oem fluid long before the pentosin went in. havent had it since (you can work it out by dating this topics post date and the pentosin post date).

The transmission is actually a bit quieter and smoother with the pentosin in for what thats worth.

proof will be in how it holds up to the 10,000 road km use and 1,200 track km per year over the next year or so if the tanny lasts that long.

the car is a 2009 model.

I have had a slightly different noise when changing from first to second. There is a bit of a clunk noise from the gear box. It is not a gear clunck, it it more like a sound of metal hitting metal for a split second. I hear it more when travelling through tunnels or when the sound bounces of surrounding buildings, it is more pronounced under hard acceleration.

I havent had any grinding noises but FWIW whilst there is no doubt the Willal oil is the best track solution, and still beautifully smooth on the shift, my car (tranny) shudders like a bucking bronco off the line in daily driving. I'm thinking about going back to Nissan oil for a while to see the difference...

that sounds like gearbox/engine mounts to me which makes no sense as they usually take a while to give up

      spot the stagea

      By AnimalGarage · Posted

      It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack.

      Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.

      In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).

      ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.

      OK, if it idles at 1000+ with the AAC, its not an idle airflow problem. The cold start valve just gives extra air when the engine is cold, but you have enough air without it to idle at 1000. I think you are back to a fuel problem, sorry. Can you see the fuel pressure staying constant or does it drop as the revs drop to a stall?
