Hi All,

Just wondering if anyone out there has managed to get the OBD-II side of things working in their V35? I have a 2003 V35 350GT and I recently purchased a OBD-II interface unit off good old eBay which claims to be compliant with most protocols. After trying to connect to the car through numerous programs, the best result I have had to date is with a Palmer Performance ScanXL trial. This software will actually connect with my car but doesnt appear to recognise any of the parameters (PIDs) whereas most other software including Centrafuse, Nissan Data Scan, Autoenguity and many others, dont even connect to the car.

Is there any particular trick to getting the car to talk to the software properly? I have installed the necessary virtual com ports to allow the USB to act a a serial port and the physical link between the car and computer is sound as data is passed between both. Im beginning to think that the hardware i purchased simply wont work with the car due to some sort of protocal difference. Maybe its just a case of I got what I paid for!

Reason I am trying to sort all this out is as I get a beeping noise coming from my centre console randomly when the ignition is on. Previous suggestions from members have not yeilded any results so I thought I would try to see if I get any error codes that instantly clear when the noise occurs. Any assistance from anyone who has already got OBD-II working on a 2003 V35 would be greatly appreciated.

Regards

Laine

it speaks a variant of J1850. that said the only beep you should have in the middle of the dash will be the screen. it you are getting that I would say the service reminder is active.

I don't think you will find any OBDII software to work with your 2003 V35 350GT. My ECM doesn't speak OBDII at all, only Consult II protocol. It might be that there was no requirement in Japan to support OBDII protocol back in 2003. Even though all G35 Infinities support it.

Nissan DataScan II will work with your car and you will be able to diagnose and monitor the engine ECU (ECM). The beeping noise might not be related to the ECM though.

Cheers,

Tom

I too have tried the ones on eBay with no luck. It seems that the only cable supporting our car is the BlaZt II : http://www.blazt.biz/information/cars.php

has anyone tried and confirmed this? G33K perhaps?

I ordered one last week to test on the V35 for Blazt , so I will let you know how it goes

Hi All,

Thanks very much for the info and as everyone has mentioned, it appears I was misinformed on its capabilites!

With regards to the beep, I have tried pretty much everything I can physically change, including all the service reminders etc, with no luck. My six stacker's feed mechanism is busted and I think it might be related to that seen as I have been unable to find anything that might trigger it.

Anyway, looks like I will be living with the 'beep' for now!

Cheers

Laine

Wtih the Blatz, can you see anything other than the ecu? body control module, transmission control module (auto).....

Not yet. Only ECM is supported at the moment.

Another option is Autoenginuity with Nissan enhanced support module. The real time data updates and data logs are really slow though.

    • Reading through the engine service manual their advice is do a cylinder balance test. Unplug one injector at a time and see if the idle drops a consistent RPM. You can also do this using a Consult cable which is easier. They also call for unplugging the power transistor, then with the engine off and the fuel rail unhooked from the manifold verifying that you have good fuel flow (even injection, no dripping/leaks, etc) when you twist the CAS by hand. Also verify the spark by pulling the spark plugs and allowing the plugs to ground and turning the CAS by hand. I would also start doing the sensor checks and idle valve checks in service manual. Make sure the MAF tests reasonably, the intake air regulator is sane, etc. You may have to get new spark plugs.
    • This sounds very old of me, however since buying the Tiguan shit box, my view on shit boxes have changed.
    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
