ive got the same problem in my 33 gts4. The AWD Light Is On And when the AWD comes in the SLIP light dose not flash on. It is still working tho.

Ive had is checked out by two different mechanics and an auto electrician and they cant find the problem, I had it hooked up to a Nissan diag test and it came up with an ABS problem, Got a new unit and Still the same issue.

Have you got the same size tyres and rims front and rear? Having different rolling circumfrances will cause this problem as the computer reads the front wheel travelling faster than the rears or vice versa

This... different wheel circumfrence is bad enough for a regular diff, and for AWD... my parents dropped about $5k worth on diff repair/replacement in their Volvo XC70 before it was discovered that a tyre shop (that shall remain nameless) put the wrong diameter tyre on... fairly subtle difference too apparently. Aforementioned tyre shop ended up reimbursing them for diff repair/replacement, towing fees etc.

So I wouldn't at all surprised if it would also cause ATTESA to chuck a spaz.

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/St...amp;pid=4643006 - suggests that a 2% difference in rolling diameter is acceptable, maybe check your tyre/rim sizes?

If it's not that, I have NFI coz I don't really know much about ATTESA :P (jack in fact)

Hi guys,

Just want to know how to check if your 4wd is working? My 4wd light is on and the fuse is in aswell. What could be the problem if my 4wd isnt kicking in.

Thanks

If the 4wd light is on, there is a fault. So obviously it isn't going to work.

Check the fault code.

The light isn't on to tell you it is working... there is a fault. Wether you in particular have some weird-o issue that no matter the amount of auto tech's can't find is not the question, in the op's case that is what he needs to do first.

if you want to see if its working, drop the clutch on some grass and see if the front tyres spun as well. either the grass will be flat, beaten and ripped a bit, or it'll be dug up. or do the same on some dirt or something. but if the car flys off into the distance instead of just sitting there burning out its probably working...

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      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

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      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.
