Hi Guys,

have been trying to resolve this problem all weekend! (was up to 1am last night)

what i have noticed is that all three lights would either randomly come on during a lap or come up immediately upon starting.

This problem has progressively gotten worse and on the last meet was in RWD all day. Being so close to Superlap i would like to fix this asap.

Seached Altessa Diagnostics on the forums and attempted to follow the instructions to run it and get a fault code but had no sucess. (Trying to

ground termal #4 on the diagnostics plug (pink wire?) whilst ignition on and a drive of 30km/h for a min) - this did not make the ABS light flash at

all - does anyone have any experience with this - is there something i need to be aware of - also the red flash on the altessa computer

seems to remain red all the time.

What i did then was address the following - still with no sucess

1. Bleed the 4wd system - ensuring there is correct amount of fluid

2. Check TPS voltage signal being sent of ecu.

3. Changed each wheel sensor

4. Changed G-sensor

5. Went to change 4wd unit and realised that there is a difference with a non-vspec - sourced one this morning

6. Swapped Altessa computers over - no luck.

last effort tonight before i burn this is to switch the 4wd units over - Any constructive help with previous experiences or know how

will be greatly appreciated.

Work starts tonight at 8pm at F&E Autoworks - in Smithfield - feel free to come done enjoy some beer!!

:P

Check that the alternator is putting out the right voltage

Copy that! i had a similar problem in my R32 ended up being the nut on the back of the alternator

connecting to the battery, it was loose therefore not charging properly, tightened her up and everything ran fine again

    • I know people cry at the price of the Getrag 12-14k for a conversion now, but it really is a nice mid point. Not going to get change from 10k on a gearset installed.  $30k++ for sequential.   I know you run the risk of a damaged used one and parts are hard to get but as a street car gearbox its really hard to beat. If you enjoy a more traditional manual, its the choice no question.
